blitz.fenix: What kind of design were you doing? When I'm drawing out the designs I always have to remember that the dark shapes themselves must be anchored in some way. If you don't design enough inherent stability, you'll end up with a mess. The "Vertigo" one was very difficult to carve because the only anchors that the design had were the figure's right hand and left foot.

I will clean out the pumpkins, then immediately carve them. Also, I keep a water spray bottle handy and spray them down occasionally, especially after carving. That will help keep them from drying out.
