Help on Robert J. Langs Lizard

I've been working on Robert J. Langs Lizard.

I'm stuck on step 30. It says "Spread-sink the corner" but I'm not quite sure what that means or what to do.

Assuming you are following the model in Origami Design Secrets, refer back to page 33, figure 2.41 for Dr. Langs explanation of a spread sink. The one in the lizard is pretty much the same.

Apparently you figured it out in the time it took me to fold this up and photograph it. Ah well...

Lang's Lizard - Step 30

Back at step 17, the model was symmetric. At the start of step 18, the layers should have been arranged such that the front side is the mirror image of the back. Thus, when you get through to step 34 on the front side, you should be able to simply turn the model over from side to side and repeat steps 18-33 in mirror image left-to-right. When you get to step 34 the second time, just turn the model back over, and you should have the model as pictured in step 35.

Oh okay.

Nice paper by the way

I folded the lizard in good unryu the last time. I just grabbed some copy paper for the photos - pink seemed a color I wouldn't use for much else.
