Head Come and knock on our door... Jack Tripper

Hello all,
I have just finished my first in a new series of customs: Jack Tripper from Three's Company. I have decided to do this series in the WWMD style, so I have struck to a simple 4 color paint job...



The head is an altered Tom Paris I made a face mold of.
Body is CTVT Fonzie. (complete with "Aaaaay!" Thumb Action)
Shirt is altered from an 11.5" Ken doll.
Slacks and repainted dress shoes by CTVT.



Here is Jack on my custom card design, featuring my new logo.

I would also like to take this time to pay tribute to John Ritter. Three's Company was the first sit-com I fell in love with as a child, and John Ritter quickly became my hero. I learned how to cook at a young age simply because Jack Tripper was a chef.
The day he passed, the world lost a wonderful comedian, a physical comedian which is rare these days. So, this figure is a tribute to him and my first television obsession. [pours a 40oz on the ground]

P.S. Yes, I even painted in John Ritter's chest hair.

I'm a huge John Ritter fan....I was sad to see him die and like the act that my kids are big fans of Clifford.

Cool custom package.

RIP John Ritter. Three's Company was one of my faves growing up too. Nice tribute!
