Kinda hard to do on a budget.
Not saying you need a $100k stage like pic related, but I guess you want at least some quality out of your captures.
Kinda hard to do it on your own.
You also have to dull yourself down a lot, either with powders or tons of concealer.

My idea is to buy a mini dolly like pic related and put a stand on it, then have it circle me and take a video that i can use for photogrammetry. I'm not sure if this can generate results that are usable in any way though.
The stand and dolly might be too wobbly. My room might be too small to have enough distance between me and the camera. Also ideally you wouldn't take images from just one hight. And also I don't have a good camera.

You also need an ungodly amount of (even and consistent) lighting, which in turn produces lots of specular reflections.

PS unless you get those expensive lighting panels and/or wrap an entire room in diffusing materials.

So I'm looking at about 70€ for the mini dolly, 20€ for the stand, maybe 500€ for a camera and lens and 50€ for lighting. And then it might not work at all.
Also maybe some money for good photogrammetry software.

I don't have a ceiling fan and I suspect this would be too shaky and as someone else mentioned I would need to find a way to stop the phone from rotating. I also thought about dangling it from the ceiling somehow, but I don't think this will work.

This of course is a ridiculous suggestion. Recreating a real person and making it not only anatomically correct, but also recognizable is probably the most difficult task for any artist.
Maybe something like reallusions character creator would be a good option: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMZmZtcdpr8

Why do you need anything other than a tripod that you can set at different heights and angles?

Surely you can adjust any imperfections in Photoshop? Meshroom is only going to be able to do so good. There's some leeway here.

I would need to readjust the tripod and then get into the exact same body position again. And I would need to repeat that some 50 times to cover all angles. Doesn't seem very realistic.

Why make the camera do the spinning?
Just stand on a dolly and spin. That way the lighting is consistent the entire time and you don't have to do some retarded setup trying to get the camera to go in a perfect circle.

What photogrammetry software would you use for this? I don't think meshroom works well for an object on a turntable.
I also think lighting becomes more of a problem if you turn an object, especially if you don't have perfectly even lighting. Shadows for example will be moving from frame to frame and confuse the software.

I think that could work, you would have to use a two string system to stabilize the phone, and make the ceiling fan go super slowly for stability, but theoretically you would have a smooth small constant force on the camera.

I have seen people achieve good results with a turntable. Like for example in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4Pz3IDrec8
He obviously put a lot of effort into this. From building his own motorized turntable to setting up a green screen and good lighting to doing a lot of post processing/sculpting of the mesh.

Reallusion character creator with the head shot plugin is a better option I think. All you need is a high res image of someone's face and you can easily create a character that somewhat resembles them. It's like made for perverts.

Nice detective work. It was actually set to about 1.3 meters, because I was testing if I can scan my head while sitting on a chair. It actually turned out quite good.

The attached image shows my first try of a full body scan. It's close enough that I think I can achieve good enough results with a bit of optimization.
The first thing will to try to optimize the lighting. This time I only used the natural light from the windows in front of me, which is why my back turned out worse.
The other thing I could try to do is empty out the room completely so I can move the camera further away. This time I had to use a wide angle mode to get my whole body into frame. Even then my arms were out of frame half of the time.
Still happy to get any suggestions on what I could improve.

Best and cheapest way is to honestly just have someone else take the photos.
Like someone said, dull yourself with charcoal if your super oily.
Rent an escort, call her and say you want to book her for 1hr but this is what you would like her to do for you. Just he upfront. Some might think you are fucking with them, but if you pick one with god reviews I'm sure they would be keen.
If they ask why just say what you posted here, you don't know anyone in your circle that you would want to take naked photos of you.

Are there cheap quadcopters that you could program to fly orbits around you while holding a camera? Seems like it'd be a lot easier to get stable flight indoors.

just did some research, and it seems like the dji tello drone is the best for something like this. small enough to fly indoors and has a usable UDP remote control API, along with python libraries and stuff to get the image out. The camera is only 5MP and you probably can't control exposure, but hopefully it'll be good enough.

just ordered one, will report back with results.
