I hope you enjoy my articulated Bearded Dragon lizard! He's fun to fidget with and pose. Speaking of posing... I added a new mechanic to the front arms that locks them against the chest. This allows for really cute propped up poses! Give it a try! Here's a short video showing how the arm locks work!
Here is a quick video showing how to remove the Pre-Support and snap-fit the head onto the body (demo'd on the Crested Gecko).
Please, share photos of your makes! I would love to see them!

Printing Details *This model was designed for FDM printing. It was not designed for Resin printing, and I cannot guarantee good/functional results. Resin print at your own risk.
Includes 4 STL Files: *Recommended: -Head with Pre-Supports: Supports are already built into the model. No need to generate them! -Body with Custom Brim: Print-in-Place, Brim geo is built in so no need to generate one. No Supports needed. *Extras: -Body: Print-In-Place. No Supports -Head: Snap-Fit to Body. Requires Support "Touching Buildplate".
*Good bed adhesion is a must for successful printing. If you find you are having adhesion issues, use a brim/raft or use the body model with the custom brims built in. If the custom brim shapes aren't showing up in your slice, try lowering your Initial/First Layer Height.
10-20% Infill. 3 Walls.
Though I highly recommend using the pre-supported files, and not generating supports in the slicer, some people may prefer to. For a demonstration of how I use Cura's support blockers to print the Head and Body at the same time, please check out this video. It's super easy! https://tinyurl.com/mr3zkyue
Scale to your liking! 100% creates a 10" model, so that will make it easy to scale it to your desired size. (80% = 8", 75% = 7.5", etc.) Depending on your printer tolerances, you should be able to print close to 60-65% before the joint function may start to become compromised. YMMV
