Chesslo, The model is about a third the length of the side of the square. The wing span is about 2/5 the length of the side of the square.
I used mulberry paper off a roll I found at the local art shop, 81 cm per side, so the model is about 24 cm high and wing span of 31 cm.
So big, but that's how I like folding models, especially ones I want to display. They are also easier to photograph that way (most of the time).

Hah, yea, I've found things to be waaay easier to photograph when they're larger, which is a problem since I prefer folding things smaller. I think when I fold things bigger, inaccuracies are more apparent, which bugs me (a ton), even though they might have the same proportions if I were to fold smaller.
