The thing with doing simple models with large paper:
a) Really have to up the weight of the paper.
and
b) They don't look that good.

That's the largest one I've heard of, way bigger than Sarah Adam's.

Wow, florigami, that's a big rectangle. I hope your horizontal folds come out ok--it seems like the longer the paper the more potentially crooked horizontal folds can become (at least on the long side). Crimps too...

I've folded Jun Maekawa's eastern dragon (idk the paper size--it was stage back drop paper) that came out around 5-6 feet. I actually had to precrease the crimps :lol:.

Good luck with your giant folding. :D
