You could maybe cut it to 1 x 3 and do Tom hull's five intersecting tetrahedra

1 sheet of 20 cm PVA treated lokta, 30 gsm, red-brownish. As complex as you can go with such a small size, but nothing that would end up incredibly tiny.

step 1 about 20" square
step 2 brown, yellow, orange, black
step 3 medium thickness
step 4 Nepalese lokta.
step 5 paper demands moderate thickness, but pretty high up there.
Common sense is not that common.

Would a 35cm square of elephant hide work for Komatsu's lion?

Origami shop advices elephant hide so it will probably look great when it's finished.

Thanks! I know, but origami shop recommends 50cm but the book says 24cm?! So I was wondering if 35cm would be fine or if it would get to thick :)

You should be fine. Take a look at this http://fziegler54origami.blogspot.com.b ... etour.html

Also going to try this out :)
Found out that the wrapping paper for my chocolate has very good shaping possibilities.
Tried it on the rat of eric joisel (see here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/tschobigami/8789485309/)

So my question: what models could i do with this?

size: 12cm / 4,8in
colour: black with gold and red pattern / white
thickness: thin
paper: chocolate wrapping :D hmmm see picture
complexity: around joisels rat or kawahatas yoda, not too small, due to the size of the paper

thanks in advance
