Monty Python and the Holy Grail - Knights of Nii

Snow Builder · Mar 20, 2020

Family and I have been hitting cons as King Arthur, Patsy and the Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Thought it would be fun to add a Knight of Nii as a Puppet that we can roll around with us.

Worked on the head and helmet -I think they're about done.

I've started building a 10' PVC frame with puppeteering mech for the head. More pics to come...

Thanks for looking.

cool. i'm thinking this is one of those 'deceptively simple' props?

Spent last night working on the horns and branches. Also reworked the face and beard a little. Just need to add the fur.

More progress (it's a little slow-going). Body frame made, tunic/sleeves/fur cape done (needs some tailoring), head moving mech in place, eyebrows and eyelashes added to the face.
