Did anyone have trouble getting the ears in?
Frankenstein Head with Animated Eyes
Welcome to my 3D printing project. Inspired by Adafruit's "uncanny Eyes" with esp 32.
It's alive!!!

how is that green filament called?
i mean the plastic with those white points

Ordering parts to start this project I've never done anything with adafruit or making my own electronics projects. I have wired car stereos and similar difficulty wiring installs. The "devkit v1" doesn't seem to come up explicitly anywhere. Is it ok to buy from Amazon or should I buy from Adafruit? I know you tend to get what you pay for so I don't mind spending more for a better end result or easier setup process.
This is what I was looking at for boards:

This is what I was going to get for displays:

Any recommendations for something different or better?
Is it possible to change the code for these OLEDs? "Waveshare 1.5inch OLED Display Module 128x128 16 Gray Scale SPI/I2C Interface SSD1327 Driver"
Thanks
Can someone help me? I can't get the eyes to show, just a white curtain on the screen. I followed the schematic and the screen is OLED 1.5 but the ESP32 is different from the original project. Is that a problem? I have followed the scheme of @numindast_274032 Please HELP :) (edited)
@pepgra_11675 My suggestion is to get the pin-out for the particular esp32 board that you purchased, and look for which pins have the SPI interface on them. That is composed of MISO (to data in on the LCDs); SCLK (to the clock pin on the LCDs); a GPIO for data/commands, a GPIO for reset, and two GPIO's, each going to a single LCD (do not connect the LCDs together for these two wires).
Then you also need to configure main.cpp with those pins, see attached code snippet.
I have discovered these screens use SPI, so whatever pins you need on your esp32 board, that supply SPI and GPIO's, you can use and configure in the program. The CS (chip select) lets the esp32 enable/disable each screen so they don't display the exact same image.
@numindast_274032 I think the pin assignment is correct, I attach a capture of the pins of the ESP32 that I have tested (two different models) but with the same problem, I suspect that the problem may be the chip of the OLED screens, I see that the code is for OLED Adafruit_SSD1351 my screen version is SSD1327 In a few days I will receive other OLEDs and I will tell you if I have solved the problem.
Printed with eSun PLA.
Added a DollaTek Mp3 Lossless Decoder to play sounds from a SD card via small speaker.

@Slegnor It looks great, I like the modification!
@frankm10_339400 I like it, it's difficult to take a photo where the screens of the eyes look good
What a great Model. Thanks for that! Did it without animated Eyes, took some Halloween-Eyes sweets. Turns out great!
You should check your files. Apparently there's a problem with your download.
I still had the dragon eyes from Adafruit ( https://learn.adafruit.com/animated-electronic-eyes?view=all) for the Raspberry Pi at home.
That's why I had to enlarge everything to 120% so that the lenses still fit into the eyes. That's why I also had to split the head into two parts.
BTW: this is not Frankenstein. It's Frankenstein's monster.
I see very different prices for the 1.5-inch OLED screens, which one should I buy?
