Dragon Bookmark

Just over 10 years ago, I fell in love with Roland's og dragon bookmark. I haven't read out of a real book in a few years, but getting back into reading made me want to recreate my childhood bookmark, with a twist.

I love those little mustaches that dragons often have as depicted in Chinese media, which I learned people call “whiskers,” which is adorable. That and the eye are my favorite stand-out features, but this model is not a derivative so much as a complete re-imagination using more modern tools like Flux. If you wanted to laser cut it or something I have included the DXF exported from Illustrator as well.

Here are Roland's original instructions, which are equally iconic:
