This is a print-in-place octopus with flexible legs, in the same style as [McGybeer's Cute Mini Octopus](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3495390). Just for fun, as a toy or fidget, or to show off the possibilities of 3D printing. Unlike the original, this one has no mouth on the side, which allows to print it entirely without supports. It also makes it slightly more realistic because real octopuses (or *octopodes* for the linguistic fanatics) have their mouth at the bottom. This is where the striving for realism ends though, because real octopuses obviously do not have a nose or eyebrows either.

Although inspired by [McGybeer's Cute Mini Octopus](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3495390), this was re-created from the ground up in Blender, which means it is not a remix.
