How to make the Jigsaw Killers puppet, Billy, for virtually nothing

Step 5Painting the details

Painting the details
All that remains is to paint the details onto the mask. The eyballs should be black and the pupils red. The cheeks should have red spirals and the lips red.

Thats it. Having written this down it feels like my instructions are very simple. It turns out they are. This was a very simple project anybody could do it and make it look good. I hope this inspires someone else to give it a go for a great halloween costume.

There will be an update to this project. I still have a wig to add to the back of the mask and there will be some full photos of me dressed in my suit with matching red bow tie so check back to see the full effect. I'm also making a similar themed costume for my fiance so I'll detail that one too.
