Included in Monthly Downloads for December and January Patrons Here: DOWNLOADS..........................................................................................I have been wanting to make a non-skeli snake for some time and the King Cobra was a fun first! I knew the head needed to be upright to display that big beautiful hood hahaha. But I was also able to give it an opening mouth and tongue or no tongue options. I added a long and short version ( which can be printed much larger). I really like the single color gradients for this design... but the 3mf is provided, and gives you options for extra detail.Happy Printing -Dan*Please consider tagging @flexifactory/ #flexifactory in your social posts so I can see your amazing prints!

Print tips and Info:
You may see a warning about the long snake having over 1 million polys. Please be patient with the slice and DO NOT simplify.
STL and 3MF files are included. * If you use the 3mf file, please remember that it is a painted project file for your convenience. You must check your material/printer/settings to make sure it works correctly for your printing project.
I print with .12 or .16 layer height for quality.
As usual, make sure you have good adhesion, especially for the small versions. A glue stick works or I have switched to using on all my machines... a BIQU Cryopgrip Frostbite adhesion plate.
I successfully test printed between 50% and 180% for this design.
Gradient PLA works well with this model: I have a comprehensive list of Filament I use here: Amazon List
