Origami X-Wing instructions

It makes no sense one I get to the 'Push it under further, so that the diagonal it lies under goes right to the centre. ' bit! My thingy looks nothing like that one!

And a couple of steps after that, I don't get how it gets to where it is. I have a sqaure shaped piece of paper still, and they have a diamond shaped one!

Please help.

Crikey that was difficult, and I think I screwed up somewhere, but it does look mostly like an X-wing now. I just a couple hundred more.

I've found another one, follow the instructions until you're X-Wing looks nothing like it's supposed to, then loose you're temper, scrunch it up into a ball and throw it at the wall - hey presto it's the Death Star

Sweet! A matched set.

Pyan, I do have things to do today, you know. Of course, I mean after I build THE MOST AWESOME STAR DESTROYER MANKIND HAS EVER SEEN!

Damnit, Py! You've just wasted half an hour of my revision!

But at least I've got my very own X-Wing now, albeit one without the folded upp wing-tips - my fingers aren't as nimble as they used to be. Lack of practice, I guess.
