A flexible velociraptor! How cool! This is a very flexible (19 joints!), print-in-place model I spent a long time designing. A lot of attention to detail in this model, and a few of the smaller tail links are weak due to their size so be careful! He can stand on his own or hang from something; he can even bite his own tail! One of the links just behind his hip will be a little stiff after the print and will just take a little careful working to get completely flexible, otherwise (fixed) He should print and pop off the board in a completely flexible state. He seems happiest when hanging from a computer monitor. Have fun! Kudos to DrLex, Kirbs and airfish for developing the link mechanic used in this model
not suitable for small children, the tail end pieces may be fragile and could break off and be swallowed
Send me a message if you have an idea for my next model!

Make sure you print him on his RIGHT SIDE. His tail is tapered and I designed him so that his tail sits flat with the right side of his body for printability. No supports or rafts are needed.
