So I was thinking man, what am I going to do about these big orange things cluttering up the apartment. Then I figured you know what, I could chop them up. Cut pictures into them, that sort of thing.
So I went looking for inspiration, and found it.
What does inspiration look like?
That is what it looks like.
Better photos forthcoming (if they're desired here I don't care I'll just be posting them to my blog anyhow but if you guys want)
So what do you guys think of it as a pumpkin carving? I made one mistake, I accidentally sliced off his top row of fangs so he's kind of got a grill that's toothpicked in as a result, but I don't think it's too obvious. The pumpkin needs a much bigger candle though, it's just a puny little tea light in there.
Coming up with this design was a lot harder than doing Zim last year.

Though we could use a communal pumpkin carving thread, if you ask me.

i wanna carve 'the crow' P:
...seriously?
Never?
Man what the hell is up with your continent
The Crow's basic crow symbol would be easy but kind of featureless and it'd be boring if you did it on a large-ish pumpkin. As a starting point on a small pumpkin it'd be a good way to go. Doing the traditional jack-o-lantern looks is also a good place to start.
I did mine there with only a paring knife. It's really a good deal harder than it needs to be, though. Pick up a pumpkin carving kit if you haven't done a million of them yet.
Also, pro-tip: Eyeliner pencils
They're water soluble and so you can wet a dishcloth or better yet a face cloth and wipe the pumpkin clean as you complete it. If you use something permanent like a sharpie you have to cut out all of the marked areas and honestly what's the point of pre-marking it if you can't erase and start over if you don't like how something looks? So pick one up, they come very cheap and make the perfect marking tool.
