Hi all -
I apologize for posting another Engel diagram help topic. I did pretty well up to now, but step 16 on his Hummingbird (pleat the front wing, and swivel it forward. The leg will follow. Some ungainly creases will appear. Flatten them as well as possible) has me INCREDIBLY confused. I can't get this for the life of me.
Help?

Step 16 doesn't look complicated, maybe it is the wording what is confusing you.
Just precrease the mountain and valley creases shown at step 16. Then do the valley crease first and then the mountain. The mountain crease should end up further to the right than the valley one. As you do this, the rest of the model on the left hand side, would move towards the right, this is what is supposed to happen, so let it do so..
I hope I am clear enough, but if not, just ask again and I'll send you pictures.
