Research into snakes

I have selected the video below as it shows the movement and flexibility of snakes. If i am going to base my final model on them then i need it to also have these properties. The paper is flexible but only if done over a large area as the solid straight edges give the otherwise flimsy paper rigidity and strength. The model is also more likely to bend against the direction of the points rather than with them, and as i have found it is harder to create a larger piece like that whether by defualt or attaching seperate sheets together.
With the scales of the snake also visible in parts of the video it is also clear that this would also not be a good representation of one although it would still be a repeating pattern.
