A little early, but...
#1
I know it's a little early, but Hallowe'en is one of my favourite pagan holidays and I like to get into the spirit a little early. This year looks like it's going to be a two pumpkin year, because this one's already starting to rot. Well anyway, here he is.

He took maybe about an hour and a half to open, gut, scrape, carve, and detail, which is probably one of the fastest ones I've ever done. If you look real close, there are little headspikes coming down on the left side that give the head some shape and definition. The picture doesn't showcase that well.

Anyway, enjoy. There'll probably be another one to upload in a few days.

Ciao! ^^

OMG....you love it too don't you?!!?!?! *Clings and pounces* Well I love the Holiday without pumpkins cause I never have luck with them. But I decorate the whole outside the best I could. It looks pretty spiffy as always, but alas to see you have that skill Senjy is really awesome x.x;.

Man, I could never try that. Thats brilliant work. Also hour and a half, FAST? You must really take some pride in that...Or pumpkins are notoriously hard to gut.

That's really fucking awesome. The shame is that it has to decompose, but you'll always have the pictures.

It's a shame it was an hour and a half out of your time, so let me ask you, do you value your time much? Or is it something to spend freely like money in Northpoint :P

Wow...I didn't expect so many compliments!

I figured this would be the place, if any, that a dragon would be appreciated. :p

Considering that I've spent over 3 hours working on one before that had a lot of individual teeth to cut out, this one was a breeze. The gutting isn't the hard part; it's carving small details (ie. sharp, pointy teeth) and carving it so that light will actually shine through that's the challenge.

Alas, it's already gone out with the garbage. It was about 70% mush, and with all the mold it was showing, it was only a matter of time before it collapsed in on itself or made us all sick. Oh well...I'll make sure to take steps to preserve the next one.

It was time well spent, considering that there were eight other people there, carving pumpkins also.
