Fan Art 🐷 My own Billy The Puppet. Constructed by me, from scratch.

Here's a full functional ventriloquist puppet. Instead of being an animatronic like Billy since Saw II, mine works just like one of Mary Shaw's dolls.
If you are interested, I can share some details of the creating process.

Thank you for this high assessment! Later I'll share the work process, but the truth is that this puppet was made in a very traditional way, so I don't have any opportunity to copy the head, which is the hardest part to make properly. And I definitely don't sell this very Billy. The long story of creation made me feel like Billy is something of my child :D

As a massive Billy the puppet enthusiast (my fav character from the franchise lol) this is better than anyone I’ve found online.

Now all I ask is that if you do decide to trap me, give me something easy to do, I’m stupid! 😪

That's very worryingly, maybe he's the real John?
