Description
I haven't been able to find these things on Thingiverse or Printables so I decided to make one. Skull Fliers are flying skulls with a sort of scorpion tail on them via their spinal cord. Spooky. At 1/2 CR they're definitely not to be confused with Flame Skulls but kinda similar and have a nasty paralysis poison.
This was a standard AI skull so I had to break the jaw off and hollow out behind it. I did a fair amount of sculpting to reshape it and added an armature to the spine that came with it to get it into the right bend.
For FDM printing you can tilt it back ~40% on the X-axis with minimal supports. For resin auto supports should work fine. I played with a new flying baseplate for this and did ~3 test prints to get it working and I'm pretty happy with it. I may have to revisit my flying creatures to get this one added.
