[Update]
---2024/05/09---
I used the “Import from Third-party” function to import the model back from Thingiverse.
---2024/08/14---
Added a profile consisting of one color.

---2024/09/19---
Due to a change in the Terms of Use, single color profile has been removed. If you wish to create single color profile, please set all color settings to a single slot before 3D printing.
 

This is Flexi Japanese Dragon. This model is based on Japanese dragons, especially those of Katsushika Hokusai: 葛飾北斎 (1760-1849).

Comparing the head with Western dragons, the jaw shape is similar to that of a fish, so the mouth looks downward, and the face is similar to that of a human, as there is a tradition that it looks like ogre: 鬼. In addition, compared to the original Chinese dragon, the Japanese dragon has three fingers, spiky hair (or thorns instead of hair), fewer branched horns (or no branches), and other minor differences. I kept these differences in mind during the design process.

Print in Place with no supports and no assembly required. In addition to the standard Flexi Dragon-like size model, medium size model, reorganized in a lizard style, is included. The medium size requires 30% less filament and time to 3D print than the large size; if 3D printing time is a concern, the medium size is a good choice. If you have belt printer, it is recommended to use straight type model.

Please take pictures of your Flexi and share them with us!
