INSTRUCTIONS: Perform a truly epic coloring exercise.

The Giant Kalevala Colouring Book



Tasking across a thousand miles, a year in planning, a dedicated online used bookstore hunt, an oversized roll of newsprint nicked from a newspaper office and duct taped to a suitcase in airline checked baggage, three boxes of crayons and several hours on a Burning Man Regional Event playa with the help of random strangers, we epically bring you approximately 384 square feet of the opening chapter of Finland's national epic: the Giant Kalevala Colouring Book. As translated from Children's Book English into less censored English, and LOLCat.


You'll want to see these +larger.

Good artistic non-player involvement.
