   Kindof surprising theres no addon or something to automate something like this based on a curve or grease pencil stroke; i’m sure stuff like this can be done in other software very quickly, you see the folding effect used alot in motion graphics and broadcast graphics, it’s probably juse modifier plugins  and vertex colors or something there

   Talk about timely.  I was just watching the intro to the TV show “The Community” and was wondering how to do paper folding in Blender.  Thanks for sharing this!
