Could not find any model by the name bug or a bug on that site. Provide the direct link and someone might be able to help you

I think he might be talking about the spider diagram.

In that case, step 14 is just a simple rabbit ear. Collapse along the creases that you have already made.
In step 15 you reach inside the paper and pull out the hidden edge. You pull out the raw edge of the paper.

Hope that helps.

If this is the wrong model, please post the url to it.

well I think he is talking about Hugo Pereira's insect, not the spider, in that case step 14 looks trickier than in the spider.

I'm kind of busy right now but maybe I'll give it a try on the weekend.

I give up on you. You don't seem to be able to provide the proper information to receive help.

Ahh, a link...

In step 14 you are collapsing a preliminary fold (basically).
The top becomes the top flap (which you squash fold in fifteen), and the bottom become that lower portion you see in step fifteen.

As general advice, when collapsing creases together, always fold the creases first, and then fold them all at the same time.

Hope that will suffice (until someone posts pictures that is).
