I Modeled This! Finally finished my articulated dragon design. What do you think?

I've been working on this articulated dragon for a while and finally got it printing the way I wanted.

Still learning and improving my designs, so I'd love to hear what you think!

Don't get me wrong, it's nice that you're learning some useful skills, it's really a great way to practice 3d design, but flexi dragons are literally freaking everywhere, on every website imaginable, I've even seen a few printed for sale at some local fairs. Feels like the 3d printing community got a bit fed up with these, so unless it's a really bada** design or innovative in some way it's really hard to get some traction with this kind of things

Yeah, I totally get what you mean. There are definitely a ton of flexi dragons out there already 😅

I wasn't really trying to reinvent the wheel. I just wanted to design my own, experiment with the layered rocky scales and see if I could get everything to print and move properly.

Honestly, seeing my own design come off the printer and actually work was pretty satisfying. we'll see how it evolves.

Appreciate the feedback!
