It shouldn't make too big a difference overall. Yes it will make the paper thicker (nearly twice as thick depending on your foil), making some details difficult to fold. (But even with single-layer tissue foil, the details of the Ancient Dragon are difficult to fold well).
You can also try joining the foil together without overlapping. As long as there are no important folds along the the joint (there should be in the ancient dragon), you'll be fine. You can use tape to hold the aluminum foil together, so the pieces are properly lined up and not overlapping.
And what's so urgent about this?
