Here is a cleaner CP, for all those who want it:

Took me a couple of hours to make, so thanks would be appreciated.

(EDIT: Oops, I messed up on two corners :oops: Ah well, better luck next time... )

If you can't fold it, try a bazooka.

Great job! Maybe the Karken has already wrecked the ship :lol:

Now... lets see if we can figure out how to get the boat looking better...

Yaay first post! Well, about the 9ths...I found a construction for perfect thirds a while ago on Robert Lang's site a while ago and have been using it...here is the link: http://www.langorigami.com/science/hha/ ... ctions.pdf
The construction is on page 13. If you look at the whole section about that method for dividing into thirds, there is a chart that shows some other divisions you can get with the same method. If you fold the diagonal 1/8 of the way up the paper you get a reference point for 1/9. I hope that helps!

Does this mean I can't use this CP? By the way, I still appreciate that you made a cleaner version of this CP, even it is messed up :wink: :D
Keep on trying, it will work.

It's mostly correct. He messed up on a couple of crease intersections. But trust me, you're going to need a LOT more experience before attempting this. Also, HUGE paper. This is not something you can just print and fold.
