馃 Flexi-Bat-Cyclops (September Design) 馃 (Archived)

Greetings everyone!

I hope you are doing great. Allow me to introduce our new Halloween design: The Flexi Cyclops Bat. This bat can flap its wings with the help of rubber bands and can stand on its legs with a bit of balancing. Additionally, it can serve as a fidget toy, as its eyeball rotates freely in its socket.

When downscaling this design, please ensure that you maintain a minimum of 3 walls on the joints.
In the last image, please don't forget to follow the instructions for snapping the eye into the socket.

To pass the rubber band through the holes on the backside of the wings, please make use of the 'Rubber-Band-Insert' STL file. Alternatively, you can use a piece of wire to insert the rubber band through these holes.

Could you make the eyeball in separate parts, to print the pupil separately?
