Hi:
I am a newbie in origami world, no doubt it but I started origami to help my concentration and lower my stress and it worked great. Now I can fold some good origami models but I have some serious problems with this one: "Origamido butterfly by Michael LaFosse". I have both books "Advanced origami" and "Origami butterflies" co-written/written by Michael LaFosse and I can fold most of the butterflies in "Origami Butterflies", but origamido butterfly is a difficult one for me. Do you have any video tutorial for me to follow. I learned some intermediate models like "little terrier" using video tutorials and it wasn't hard at all. Can someone please help me learn this one.
I have stuck at "step 9" in "Origami Butterflies" book diagram, or "step 11" in "Advanced Origami" book diagram.
Thanks in advanced
P.S: If you wonder which one is the orgamido butterfly, I found it here:viewtopic.php?f=15&t=79&p=99435&hilit=butterfly#p99435 which Menschenfeind folded it. I really appreciate your help.

I did it!!!! Thank you thank you thank you. Your photos helped a lot. In fact without them I was completely lost. Still have some difficulties with some folds and definitely not an easy model to fold for me (unlike Alice Gray butterfly which is a breeze) but really really worth the effort. Thanks again. It was a great experience.
