I managed to get a pumpkin before Hallowe'en, but didn't get to carve it until tonight. And here is the beauty that is Joey carved on a pumpkin. You should reconize the design. I'm really proud of this, I don't care what people say. It's completely awesome to me. For it is the most beautifully carved pumpkin I have ever made. It took about 3 hours all together, which is sadly a much shorter amount of time it takes for me to make a regular drawing. That doesn't take away from it's awesomeness.

How I made it: I printed out a copy of the original sketch I used for my Sitting Joey piece, then did the whole get-all-the-seeds-and-squishie-junk-out-of-the-pumpkin thing. Then I taped said sketch onto said pumpkin. Then I poked tiny holes along the outline, a technique I learned from those how-to-make-kool-pumpkins kits. After that was done and my hand hurt, I carved away until you have the coolness that it my pumpkin. The weirdness on her ears and part of her eyes was something I saw done on a pumpkin while I did my crappy trick-or-treating this year. And that was how it was done.

I didn't know if I should have categorized this as photography or not, and I ended up picking indy art because it's more a picture of a work of art rather then a picture of some random object. Don't eat me. Eat some pumpkin pie instead.

I'm afraid to ask. How long did this pumpkin last?

This is great. This is excellent, the way you made real art using something you learned from a “how-to-make-kool-pumpkins kit.” I love your character, he's cute and stylish, but he's eerily spooky in this context. Sweet!
