I came up with the idea for this NJC quite early, but I had a hard time deciding to go for either the striped suit or Mamushka suit Gomez.
Gomez Addams danced the Mamushka with Fester Addams in the first Addams Family movie.

He started the dance with a hat, but I think he took it off early, because almost the complete scene he is seen without the hat. That's why I made this custom hatless too.



Head: Zap '91
Torso: Hardball '88
Arms: Long Range '89
Waist/"skirt": Tiger Claw '05
Upper legs: Storm Shadow '88
Lower legs: Recoil '89

Spread fingers Thing: Hydro Viper '88
Closed fingers Thing: Rip Cord '84
Golf club: Snow Job '83 pole + toothpick
Knives: Infantry Division '05

For the head I think I took the middle road between the classic Gomez (John Astin) from the TV series and the Gomez from the movie (Raul Julia). Zap '91 was perfect, I didn't have to change anything about it.
The knives where used in the last part of the scene, where Gomez and Fester juggled with them.
The golf club actually appears in a different scene where Gomez also wears a different suit, but I just wanted to make a dio shot with Thing holding the golf ball for Gomez, just like in the movie. And a Thing made from the Hydro Viper hand was somewhere on top of my to-do list for ages so now was the perfect opportunity to finally use it!

This was the first time I used Milliput on a custom instead of Greenstuff. I'm very satisfied about that product. I used the white version (superfine) and it is very easy to work with.
The Milliput was used for the collar, "tie" and the wrists of Thing.

Awesome figure. Your sculpting is so good I think you don't get credit for it in these voting situations, because we may not realize what you have done.

This was so good. Your paint and sculpting are great, and the Things are perfect.

Btw, you could have always used this head:



Of course, yours looks great (and maybe even better).

Well done, Tim! Great mods and execution on this figure, as always. The accessories really make this one shine.

I really liked this one. Excellent execution. *zing*

Man, that is fantastic. great job.

Yes, using Milliput on this custom worked out pretty satisfying for me. Especially the unvisible seams between the hand + wrist on both Things.
I may just have to say goodbye to Greenstuff.....



Thanks!
It crossed my mind to go and buy a Raul Julia Bison online, but when I started this project it wasn't for sale for a reasonable price (since I'd only use it for customizing).



Thanks a lot!



Hmm, Morticia shows some resemblance to Baroness so that might work.... And cousin It could be a fun project, hahaha!





Thanks guys, I appreciate that!
