Surface serpent

thingiverse

To create a serpent sculpture, consider using rare-earth magnets for stability. For the head, use three magnets, while two large loops require four magnets each. One magnet is sufficient for the small loop, and one more for the tail. Magnets from Harbor Freight offer great strength, but if you prefer weaker options, Staples sells packs of 50. For application ease, opt for peel-and-press magnets. Model the head in Sculptris, and use TruSpace 5 for the body, tail, and base. Be cautious with the tail's balance for a freestanding sculpture; you may need to clip it. Display your finished serpent on your car's hood as a hood ornament after attaching with magnets and spray-painting silver. Driving at highway speed confirmed their stability.
