Articulated Serpent Wing Skins

Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2747405.

I designed some skins for 7Fish's awesome Articulated Serpent. The skins are designed to be used with TPU or other flexible filament. The thinnest sections are .3mm which can best be printed at .15 mm layers and 100% infill. This allows one infill layer at each cross hatch direction which should give the thinnest, strongest, skin.

To stick the wings to the serpent's wing ribs, I just used thin lines of 3M Scotch Adhesive putty. This was effective at keeping the wings in place while folded or posing and also allowing them to be removed later.
