Its probably in the comments section of his flickr page, or blog, you should search.

ok, so i asked him and he said that there was no grid, but he said it was in the picture comments on flickr. the only thing is that they are in percents and i don't understand a thing on what it means, so if anyone can translate what it means...

Oki think I can help but I am not sure but I think it means to turn the percent into something more manageable like 20% is 1/5

K, i think i got the first part of the grid and that its divided by 8 from top to bottom, i think. reason is that it may be in decimals, i don't know, but thats how close i will get. so if only i can figure out the second part...

Oh, and trouble, thanks for the help to, but i think its not quite it. reason is where should i put that percent on paper if i don't know the other part of the grid lengthwise?

Lang's "Pillbug" model from Origami Insects 2 can be transformed into a passable trilobite fairly easily; this would be more or less the only available complex trilobite model available from diagrams, if I'm not mistaken.
