Origami Hydralisk Instructions

Update:
I've finally finished the fancy photo instructions!
Please take a look at them, they are much better and easier to follow: [link]
Full view for the instructions.
These are the instructions for how to make an origami Hydralisk, a creature from the computer game StarCraft. Out of all the origami Hydralisk models I've seen on the web, I think this is one of the best, in terms of accuracy and simplicity.
There are about 30 or 40 steps, depending on how you count them. Foil paper is recommended to make it easier to shape, but it's not necessary. And course you start with a square piece of thin paper, white side up.
I originally designed the model in 2003, and I finished drawing these instructions in the summer of 2006. They're kind of messy, but they work. I might make a vector version on the computer sometime if enough people want it though.
These were drawn in pencil and then scanned. I added color in Paint because the shading didn't carry over too well in the scanned version.
Feel free to print out and distribute these instructions. Just make sure I am credited as the author. Enjoy!

Though you lost me at some parts my final product wasn't to shabby
wait... I was on the internet searching origami up but I somehow end up here again... odd...
:shame
Just a quick update: I'm finishing up the fancy Flash photo version of the instructions, and you can expect them to be released during the first week of September.
I could (if I borrowed someone's video recorder), but it wouldn't be as good! 
Your video is nice though.
The instructions will be posted either in a few hours, if I'm still awake, or early tomorrow. Hang in there!

Make a photo, it takes 5 minutes to take it and upload it, you can take 5 minutes from your studying, can't you?

Steps A-E are impossible without pictures. There's just not enough information in such small drawings!!!
Good news everyone! I finally finished taking photos for the instructions! 
Now I just have to add symbols and compile them all into a nice package. I'll probably make it into an interactive Flash thing, since there are more than a hundred images!
Hope, my patient followers - the day of our victory is close at hand!

Sorry. I was getting ready to make the photo instructions at the beginning of the summer, but then things happened and I got busy. I'm not sure when I'll have the time to make the photo instructions, but I'll keep them in mind in case a good opportunity comes up. I know a lot of people are waiting for them.
