Well, I can see you have some bad luck with your protein, but still some comments so far:

  • You could have tried, what i-tasser does, if you exclude homologous templates (option II, cut-off).
  • Pictures of the models and maybe a table collecting the scores of different methods for the same template would give a better impression
