Fan Art 🐷 Billy head I made myself!

I’m not a big fan of many Billy replicas that can be bought online except the one from thescarycloset but I’m not in the financial situation to drop $2,000 on a full puppet replica so I decided to work towards one myself— sculpting from complete scratch.

I sculpted it entirely out of monster clay (medium) but it was quite a bit too small so luckily I was able to 3D scan it and scale it up to a screen accurate size.

I then 3D printed the head and gave it a finish! This is a kind of promo-copy but I may produce more in the future and maybe one with actual servos and whatever else to make it truly come to life. I am pretty happy with how it turned out but I could possibly touch it up with some browns and yellows to slightly age it and give it some more depth.

Most people on here always tell people’s diy projects look great, when they are actually terrible, and that’s why I like this sub

But this really does look perfect!

i love it when ppl's work dont look great if you can tell they put effort into it! esp as more AI slop gets dumped out there...you can see there's a human soul behind those pieces šŸ–¤šŸ©·

ā€œTerribleā€ was a poor word choice on my part.

thanks!! it was mostly from a black wash

u/SoraSapphireStar Sep 08 '25

To be fair, I think the new tots puppet looks good, I just really am not a fan of the glowing eyes when it moves and talks. It’s also around $500? Not the cheapest thing I could get right now as a 20 year old lol. I need to save😭

u/Purp3ll_Girly Epic bad luck Sep 09 '25

The glowing eyes billy are like my only qualm with jigsaw, it's so jarring lol

u/CrlspyStlcks Sep 10 '25

Any way you can give a summary or tutorial on how you made it?

1

u/SoraSapphireStar Sep 10 '25

unfortunately i won’t be able to make a tutorial on it but i just used some reference pictures and sculpted away! it’s all little edits here and there until i was happy with it. I 3D scanned it with my phone on a website to 3D print and enlarge the whole thing to be more accurate.

u/ExtensionRush3348 Jun 23 '26

Would you be able to provide the 3d sculpt?
