Show us what you have so far and tell us what your goal is, would help. Do you want to design, fold from diagrams, or fold from CPs?

Here are two most recent models I have folded.

One of them is gabriel by Mikiller and the other one is the xenomorph alien by tim rickman
I have folded a few of these models before and would like to make them out of crease patterns.

Wow, you really folded my Alien well. I like the green paper a lot too!

If anybody else is interested in box pleating, a full tutorial for my Alien model can be found on my YouTube channel.

That is a good one. Not too complex, neither too simple.

I consider myself pretty advanced with box-pleating, so maybe I could teach you. PM me if you're interested.
