Do you mean you are having problems with step 8? I haven't folded it, but it looks like a mountain fold where you swing the bottom (colored) portion behind.

It's exactly as Nathan said. Just a mountain fold.

Hi,
22 you have to open the head by taking the layers to the sides.
23 is to make a pleat at the the opened layers and, just after that, close again (what you have opened at 22).
24 is just to narrow by mountain folding while giving some curve.
Good paper helps very very much here!

Unfortunately I can't take any (good, detailed) pictures to show you in a better way how to do that.
Good luck with my (maybe confusing ) verbal instructions

Hi nash, Indeed those are amazingly beautiful!
Although, did you manage to fold this model?
