Gomez Addams

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.

Great work as always Tim. When I saw this on joecustoms I knew it was yours. It's funny how most of all of us customizers on here I can recognize there work without seeing a name . Oh yea they also danced the mamushka for jack the ripper.

Oh boy! This is inspiring.

Very awesome parts choice and the small accessories are the icing on the cake. Well done!

Hehe, yes I'm probably one of the few ARAH customizers who enters contest so that's easy to recognize!

Thanks, ucsf!

Such a great custom, Tim! One of my favorites of yours, the accessories, especially Thing, really knock it out of the park.
