Penrod the Pirate

Seeing as this month's challenge on the english origami forum is Pirates of the Caribbean, I decided to fold something (someone, in a way) that not many people know by name. One of the crew of the Flying Dutchman is Penrod, half man half lobster. At first, I worried about the CP and had no idea what to do, but eventually I decided to use the CP for Jun Maekawa's devil with a few minor changes to the hands and tail. Here is my CP:

The CP may take a while to fold, but it does have the same reference point as the devil: fold a 22.5 degree angle from the corner where the 22.5° angles touch on a fish base to the center diagonal, and where that line and the diagonal cross is the point above the tail.
