Help needed collapsing Trofeo-Pez espada (Swordfish trophy)

Hi,

I'm somewhat new to CP's and though i was already good enough to fold the Trofeo-Pez espada (Swordfish trophy) by Sergio Garachi.... I'm not :|

Original Pictures and CP: http://neorigami.com/neo/index.php/en/o ... pez-espada

Anyway, I'm not sure if I'm not collapsing correctly or if I do not have the ability (confidence in my base) to go from the base to the 3d model. So if anyone has any tips or pictures please do tell. Pictures of my attempt to collapse the base below:

EDIT: Improving my question, I believe knowing where all the pieces are supposed to be on the CP would be enough for me to correctly collapse it. So this is where I think everything is located, please correct me:

In case no one offers you an idea, I can ask Sergio and see if he can give you some light on the subject. Is that ok?

Sure, i think i just need to be pointed in the right direction, even an image of the collapsed base should be enough. In the mean time i will keep on trying. :)

Thanks.

Ok, I sent him a message. It might take a while for him to reply :)

Looks like you didn't have to wait that long :P

Sergio replied, he asked me to tell you to please wait a week. In a week from now he will upload a CP that tells apart valley and mountain folds, a photo of the collapsed base, and an indication of each part of the model. He will upload all that to the model's entry in Neorigami.

I hope that works for you :)

Sergio just published the new crease pattern for his model. He asked me to tell you that he's sorry for the delay and that if you have any questions, just let us know.
