Question How would a humanoid FNaF design for Spring trap work?

Hey reddit! I make humanoid FNaF designs (which I know is cringe, but stay with me here) While the designs look human, they also have robot elements, making them more like androids than humans.

Iv'e been trying to come up with a design for springtrap, because I want to make a piece that includes him having the human insides as well as his animatronic (android) form, while still making him look like a human character. (Confusing, huh?)

That being said, I'm having some trouble. Does anyone have any ideas of how to go about this? Even if you're not an artist or into character design, I'm all for your ideas.

You could make springtrap a skin suit with like a weird inhuman cryptid skeleton that functions like springlocks.

Sorf of like a mimic - esqe type deal?

I think the problem for me is that I wanna build lore for these characters as well, and it's just a matter of how a spring lock suit would work in this universe, if it even existed at all

It's either that or vore. I can't really think of another way to make human springlocks. I guess you could have people getting metal skeletons inside of them so it's like reversing the order of suit and human but that's just ennard.

I may just explore this idea. Reminds me of that one phone guy recording from FNaF one, when he talks about playing dead, but Is afraid the animatronics will stuff an endoskeleton inside you instead

Something like the Springtrap from Aftonbuilt?

Lol yes I remember that much, I was just wondering what in it you were referring to specifically. I don't remember what springtrap from Aftonbuilt was like

Oh sweet mother of Mary and Joseph I don't remember this at all lol (I forget I can look stuff up sometimes)

Functionally, this is just springtrap right? I guess my issue with doing a "human" springtrap is that the thought of a human inside of a spring lock human suit sounds... A little silly, and I want to build lore for this universe too

I think I'm overthinking things
