myminifactory

Tanystropheus longobardicus is an extinct reptile that lived during the Middle Triassic period, approximately 240 million years ago. It is known for its extremely long neck made up of elongated vertebrae, which were flexible and likely used to catch prey in shallow waters. Tanystropheus had a small head, sharp teeth, and a long tail. It grew up to 6 meters in length and likely lived near the coastlines of ancient seas and lakes. It is considered an important transitional species in the evolution of reptiles, as it exhibits both primitive and advanced features. Model includes a Pre-supported version. The model is sized for 1:35 of the actual size. You can reduce or enlarge the model using the slicing software if you need a different size. Pre-supported model is oriented to minimize supports to the face and other high-detail parts. Care should be taken when removing the supports to avoid damaging the model.
