The Flexi Flamingo is a charming and interactive model that consists of a series of interlocking parts, designed to mimic the graceful shape of a flamingo. Once assembled, the flamingo's body can be bent and posed thanks to its articulated joints.

Recommended Colors:
- Body: Pink is the traditional color for a flamingo, but feel free to get creative! Try tropical colors like coral, teal, or even a bright yellow for a fun twist.
- Beak and Legs: Black or a darker shade compared to the body to give a natural contrast.
Printing Tips:
- Use PLA filament for its ease of printing and eco-friendly properties.
- No supports are necessary due to the design's intelligent layout, making it a clean print with minimal post-processing.
- A print resolution of 0.2 mm works well for a balance between detail and print time.
- Ensure that your bed is well-leveled for the pieces to fit snugly together without excessive force.
Post-Processing:
- Light sanding may be required to smooth out the joints for easier movement.
- If you're feeling adventurous, you can paint the model to add more detail, like eyes or varied shading on the feathers.
