135: Fold the layer (mabey 2) over to the right so you can see what step 136 shows.

136: Is just a spread squash fold.

137: Open that part of the model a little and bring a small flap to the front and then fold it up.

138: Reverse fold in, then back out again.

Does this help?

Joshua is right, and he beat me to the punch :D but I want to clarify for number 137, you have to unsink the point inside the model, and then valley it up. Make sure you dont rip the paper!

Thanks to this forum i have completed an okay version of the dragon, made mistakes with the areas that where sunk twice and the paper got very thick and took me pushing the legs on a table to fold them. Will buy some good paper and fold a perfect model next time. any suggestions on paper anyone?

anyway you can view a picture of my completed model here

Welcome to the Forum!(corny). Very nice dragon, and you have been only folding for a few months! I hope you are active in the community now, because we always love folders! (also corny).

mojo. step 235 is a inside reverse fold as stated in picture look at the arrow. step 237-238 confused me as well but i think it's because I didn't sink the area twice correctly on a previous step so I just skipped it, i don't think it makes much difference. orislater. that's excellent! I'm glad I joined the forum knowing people here have good music taste. it seems very alive here!

danny, not to be a party pooper :) but I think that avatar is too big. Check the forum rules on the size. It's not for me, its for the people with slow internet connections, we want to make their lives easier! :)
