The mosquito is definitely the most complex model I’ve designed so far. I’d say it falls under the category of complex, perhaps even super-complex, so requires a reasonable amount of experience with open-sink folds, box pleating and so on.
The diagrams were terribly hard to draw
I drew the mosquito’s crease pattern before I folded it, so it was basically designed to be a crease pattern. I’ve done my best with the steps though, and I hope you can follow them. By the way, we’re now using Lightbox, so please click a step image to view an enlarged image – you’ll probably need it
Update: We’re now using prettyPhoto (via the wp-prettyPhoto plugin for Wordpress) to support the new video steps. Many thanks to Stéphane Caron for the prettyPhoto jQuery plugin, and also Pier-Luc Petticlerc for the WP wrapper!

This is indeed the ultra complex model.
