It really depends. The printer paper used in my country is 80 g/sm, so if the printer paper you are using is of the same thickness, it would not cut it. Ronald Koh's ankylosaurus requires paper of about 60 gsm for it to work well, though printer foil may work, but achieving sloppy results.

Definetly not. This model gets really thick, so at the size of 17-20" I would recommend something the thickness of Nicholas Terry's kraft paper (Is it around 20 gsm?).

Terry's paper is closer to 30gsm, but I still wouldn't recommend it. It is not easy to fold neatly, and with all the little things you need to do for the armor, it most likely will not turn out well. The kraft will be good for a test fold, but for the final, I would use double tissue, or tissue foil.
