I think it's in the same way that you would create a large image in
Photoshop, but to test it I opened an image that I already had that was
72 d[i and about 35 inches wide, an old pic of my cat.
With ImageScale Image I bumped up the resolution, then
with a bitmap or
photo etc, and edit in gimp, however you begin the images, then
convert to vector.
I did a search for Exporting from Gimp to vectors and it came up with some
pretty interesting stuff, especially the svg stuff.
