This is a big project I've been working on for about 5 months now. It's a large puppet/costume of the Deadly Nadder from How to Train Your Dragon. I absolutely love this movie and I thought it would be an excellent excuse to create another new puppet. Soon I'll be posting a video of how he works too.
This is his head when it was about 75% done
This
is the whole costume as it stands right now. It breaks down into 6 nice
sized pieces, so its easier to store in my apartment. His mouth opens
and closes, the wings flap, his tail is slightly articulated, and the
feet contain two stilts (about 12" high) so that the proportions match
up to the dragon in the movie.
This
is the almost completely finished head. The entire base is made from
cushion foam and covered with fabric and the rig is made from several
wooden dowels and pvc pipes. And we have decided to name him Jeff.
