Large blue shark 3D origami papercraft
Beneath the surface, a massive silhouette glides slowly by. This large hanging blue shark takes shape sheet by sheet, until it fills the space as if it were truly swimming above you. Assembly requires patience, a bit of method… and a lot of enjoyment. Each piece locks into place, every angle refines the posture, and little by little, the ocean predator asserts itself.
With its 74 pieces and 17 A4 pages, this model offers a stimulating challenge, designed for 3D origami enthusiasts who enjoy ambitious projects. The final result boasts spectacular dimensions: around 880 mm deep, 400 mm wide and 360 mm high. Suspended from a discreet thread, the shark appears to float, ready to cut through the currents.
The design plays with multiple paper colors, carefully distributed across all pages to highlight the belly, the back and iconic details such as the eyes and gills. This contrast adds depth, strengthens the model’s presence and immediately draws the eye.
This shark naturally finds its place among the creations of the origami sea animals collection. In a living room, bedroom or creative space, it becomes a centerpiece—both graphic and immersive, and surprisingly lifelike.
A creative challenge worthy of the legend
Rated at ★★★★★ difficulty, this model is aimed at those who enjoy taking their time and watching an impressive work come to life in their hands. Ten hours can pass without you noticing. And when the shark is finally hanging, the silence that follows says it all: it was worth every minute.
