Absolutely yes... you can do anything with a model you have made, its your own proprety. That is why I have used metal wires in the paper model to make it look real...
Also, I remember that when I made my very first paper model 4 years back (F4-F Grumman Wildcat), I fitted an elecrtic motor with the propellor...being a novice, I accidently added a got of glue which short-circuited the motor and I could never see the propellor running... But I guess you learn from your mistakes....
I am always glad to receive comments / suggestions on my models so that I can improve upon my weekness.
 
Excellent.. That is one superb model. A model is a model .. I would as you have done use any materials needed to build a great model. Paper (Card Stock) has quite a few advantages over Plastic .. That's why we use it IMO. Wire has advantages over paper. That makes it perfectly required..

Great Job
