Hi everybody! I'm starting to fold the amazing King Cobra designed by Ronald Koh.
I want to start with a 18 cm x 600 cm Paper. It has two colours. One side is black and the other one is white. I would like the white side to be the belly of my snake an the black side should be the upper side of the finished model. On which side should I start folding to get the right result? Unfortunately I didn't find anything on the net about this issue.

Just figured it out myself by folding just the head first with another smaller stripe of paper. This is the result:



I started red side up.

Made it




The cobra was not difficult to fold but there are many steps which you have to repeat many many times.

Very nice! It looks extremely repetitive XD have you ever thought of folding ryuzin?

Beautiful cobra!
The paper you guys use looks very nice. I'm looking to order a roll from the internet, and tips on paper selection for this model?
Great work once again!"

Thank you!
@tryingtofoldsumthing: Yes i thought about folding the amazing ryuzin but didn't fold much from creasepattern by now. Maybe i will give it a try when I feel comfortable with creasepatterns.
@NicholasA: I folded it from Double Tissue Paper which i made myself. But I think wrapping paper would also work.
