The new Wednesday show comes out on Netflix this week and we’re so excited! We’re huge fans of the Addam’s Family, it’s being directed by Tim Burton AND Jenna Ortega looks like she’s going to do FANTASTIC job. Fingers crossed that it will actually be as good as it looks.
While we were browsing Home Depot this past Halloween season, we came across this super creepy animatronic doll. She’s the size of a small child, but her face looks like it’s made of broken porcelain and one of her eyes glows red for some unknown reason. She was the perfect candidate for a Halloween animatronic makeover.
Our life sized custom Wednesday Addams doll started with a full face repaint. We gave her hand painted eyes, new hair, a new costume, and replaced her giant hobbit feet with boots.
We hope you enjoy our DIY Wednesday Addams OOAK doll tutorial. If you want to see more Halloween DIY projects or Spirit Halloween Animatronic makeovers, we have a TON on our channel. Thanks for watching!

I have a question can you maybe make a scary Christmas craft?

[@JacobHGamez]

Happy early Halloween 🎃

[@damienthorn5516]

I watched this last night and I continue to be amazed by the creativity you both posess!!! You're the COOL house to visit on Halloween and you both seem really cool!! If I were still of this earth I'd certainly want to be your neighbor!!!

[@fittedcloudplayz2136]

You should make an automatic calendar that counts down the days till haloween like the on in nightmare before Christmas

[@Jassiepoohbear]

Couldn't have picked a better doll/voice box for Wednesday!!! Her wanting to play with you has the perfect sadistic undertones for her character!

[@WickedMakers]

Yes!!!!

[@bitchenboutique6953]

Wig tip: Braided costume wigs are made differently than non-braided costume wigs (I know you noticed that the netting was showing in the back) because they only put the hair on in rows that are necessary to hang for the style you’re getting. Wigs made for everyday wear have way more hair in them and are more sewn in tighter rows so you can change the part, etc. I used to sell wigs at Lucy in Disguise (RIP) so I know way more about them than most people 😂

[@WickedMakers]

Whoa!! That’s an amazing tip. So if you’re going to use braids get a braided wig… nice!

[@JackedUpBuilds]

She turned out great! Just one step into all year videos! Could y’all’s next video maybe be about or with Krampus? I want to make a krampus decoration of some sort and don’t know what. And it would go along with Christmas! I don’t know whatever y’all think I’m perfectly fine with! Stay safe and have an awesome day!

[@WickedMakers]

Thanks JM!

As a fan of Halloween AND doll customization, this hits two points of interest for me that I never expected to see from you guys! 😆🖤 She looks so good!!

[@XemeraldXD]

Same, its awesome!

[@dontstealmycontentplease]

never expected to see from you guys? this is all their channel is lmao

[@Problempossum11]

I really appreciate your videos and approach to crafting and I love that you went with a softer makeover compared to your most recent videos. I'm in the doll customizing community and my advice about filling the cracks is to use a light layer of wet epoxy putty. You can squish it in the grooves and you'll need little to no sanding.

[@WickedMakers]

Thanks!! That’s a great tip. 😄😄😄

[@astrid6496]

I was going to suggest the same thing. A two part epoxy putty, such as apoxie sculpt or milliput. You know that crack filler will crumble off eventually, but an epoxy should be permanent. It's what all of the pros are using to customize dolls, breyers, schleichs, etc. Lol

[@Faith_Soprano]

I love how the creepy factor is just amplified times 1000000 when you take her clothes off.

[@WickedMakers]

Hahah

[@sandra-jones]

It was when the hair came off for me...

[@blacktalonbased]

Having not watched the video yet.... that's really weird out of context.

[@Jasmine-wn9ek]

That’s what my ex said about me! 🤣

[@Faith_Soprano]

@@Jasmine-wn9ek Admittedly, I also have that effect on people. _high five_

[@odinson81]

I did this to our Spirit Halloween Angeline figure. She turned out great, like yours and the trick or treaters loved her.

[@WickedMakers]

Awesome!!!

[@raymitchell9736]

That's an amazing transformation... Wow. You guys hit this transformation out of the park. The spackle compound to fill the gaps on the plastic head does make me a bit nervous because maybe when that dries out it will separate and then fall out. I would think something more like epoxy or a body filler of some type would be better in that application.... I mean we're usually add the cracks to our props LOL... But I'd like to know if it ever becomes an issue because if that works, that's really good to know!

[@WickedMakers]

Thanks!! Yeah we’ll keep an eye on it

[@raymitchell9736]

@@WickedMakers LOL... Yes... I saw how you keep an "Eye" on things... that was hilarious that you guys put on the prop's hair and the ping ball eye. I have to admit that I've _NEVER_ done that myself (uh... well not admitting to it at least) LOL

[@erilauer9825]

I LOVE her! And I love the inclusion of her Marie Antoinette doll! Great touch! Super excited for the Wednesday search. Glad it coming out before thanksgiving as, well the scene from Addams Family Values, but mostly cause I'll be home and can watch it with my Dad who introduced me to the Addams Family

[@grimlen_named_Moss]

Ah that was the name of her doll I couldn't remember it's interesting seeing her in color when your used to watching the original show in black and white I hope the Netflix series will be good

[@melissab5612]

She looks great!! her face paint makeup is perfect !! great job

[@ashemarlow6471]

I like how they show how the original animatronic works instead of just changing it and showing what they did. It really shows how complicated some of these peojects can be

[@ki-pattao9030]

Wednesday Addams is my favorite Addams Family ever🖤 She's so cute👧🏻

[@WickedMakers]

Yes!!!

[@johnnyfeathers2567]

Wow you guys are top notch when it comes to this sort of stuff…such talent😊

[@nataliegray8019]

If you can score another one of those animatronics, it would be awesome to make a Chucky or Bride of Chucky version. That would be fun to watch.

[@elliemae728]

Please do a demogorgon!!! Also, loved this makeover! Can’t wait to see what’s next!

[@CMM1215]

LOVE the addition of the doll! Her face came out absolutely PERFECT! Love seeing these!!

[@Spooked4u]

She's adorable! You should use the old feet for a little goblin guy, there's not enough Halloween goblins in my opinion.

[@giselleyanez6977]

[@WickedMakers]

Yep!!

[@abadgurl2010]

@@WickedMakers Krampus! And or some Nightmare Before Christmas stuff!

[@littlmiget123]

This came out so good. So glad you guys are continuing to make videos even with Halloween over. I'd love to see Holiday themed stuff from you; a Krampus would be amazing to see. But honestly, anything yall put out is worth a watch.

[@DLPMouse8]

Wow awesome!!! So much better than before 🖤the paint job on the face is so so good 😍

[@WickedMakers]

Yes!!!

[@thoughtfulwatcher]

Have you guys ever played around with 2 part Apoxie Sculpt? It's a staple in hobby toolboxes from dolls to models to fish tank decor. It's a compound that works like clay for filling cracks and sculpting, adheres to nearly anything and dries so hard you can file, sand and even drill through it. It's available at places around the interwebs or maybe hobby stores. There's also Milliput and "Greenstuff" but those tend to be more expensive.

[@ScaryAF_Entertainment]

Another Wicked Transformation! Loved how this turned out and I am really looking forward to the Netflix series!

[@WickedMakers]

Thanks!! We are too

[@MeNormalDefMe]

Please make Krampus puppet/statue for christmas season

[@mmm90405]

I have 3 of these dolls (shipping error)! I put two out for Halloween as is, but wanted to change their costumes for next year (more like the Grady Twins from the Shining). Now i have more inspiration for the third doll, im making her into Megan! I’m going to use a static dark haired doll for Wednesday so I will have different creepy dolls for building up a haunted playground. Next year Im adding Swinging Rat Girl to the mix, and maybe a haunted tweeter totter.

[@noahhornerr]

I love how you have all of these tools and spare parts and this whole workshop... but not a color printer 😂

[@NinjaMidget1969]

One really good way to make the micro blood vessels for eyes is to use strands from red yarn and gloss mod podge on the whites of the eyes. It adds some nice detail and looks really good instead of plain old white.

You can always convert the battery power to a plug-in power, Just find a dc power block with the same voltage as the batters with the same or higher amp rating!

[@WickedMakers]

Yeah that’s a good idea

[@-_IT_-]

@@WickedMakers you can harvest the power connectors from other electrics or from electronic stores or even Amazon. I have another idea, there is this thing that lets you direct sound like a laser, and ok only the people to uh aim it at can hear the sound. Imaging this being directed at people walking up your drive. It sounds like someone is standing next to you. Even the person next to you won't hear it unless they are in the direct path of the sound! I want to make one
