Halloween Pumpkins '04
 
So one of the things I enjoy (and this year I actually have time to do it) is carve jack-o-lanterns. I use the Pumpkin Master's kit tools, but I draw my own designs. I realized that I'd never be able to carve all the designs I have planned in one day, so I started early. I realize this pumpkin will probably not last until Halloween night, but I couldn't wait. Here is a pic of my first one of the season, the shower scene from Psycho!

I promise this is a REAL picture of an actual carved pumpkin, not a Photosop creation. I did use PS to play with the contrast and color, but the carving is real. I'll post more as I carve them.

That's a pretty sweet looking jack-o-lantern. I wish I had enough creativity to design my own instead of downloading templates, lol.

StickODynomite 10-23-2004 01:22 PM

You did a great job there, Coaster. Keep posting up your creations, I'd like to see more :)

GoldenOuroboros 10-23-2004 03:58 PM

Wow, that's insane O_O

Great Job

Awesome carving, I'm really impressed :cool: ! I also like to (attempt) to make my own pumpkin designs every year. Here's a pattern I made last year if anyone would like to use it. Sorry it's so small, you just have to increase the size and print it! Oh yeah and if you can guess where I got the idea from you get a prize (well not really, but you can just imagine it). Just make sure you only cut out the white parts inside the big black circle (sorry if I insulted your intelligence ;) ). Enjoy!

As promised... here is another. "Mother's House" also from Psycho. I should have taken the pic sooner, some of the tetails were already drying out and fell apart.

I had more designs, but that's all that I actually carved.

Amazing job on the pumpkins :) like them alot!

thriolith 11-01-2004 09:10 PM

The Bate's Motel is my fave. :D

FngKestrel 11-01-2004 11:23 PM

Holy Schnikies! Those are some insane carving skills! I think the last time I tried carving a pumpkin I successfully carved a bucket.

Fremen 11-02-2004 12:58 AM

Carol Anne's my favorite. :D

"Honey, walk into the light."

Great job, Mister Coaster. :)

onodrim 11-02-2004 01:23 AM

Wow, those are awesome! :) I don't think I ever managed to carve more than the traditional smiley face into my pumpkins. :P

zenmaster10665 11-02-2004 01:30 AM

Its The lich from Warcraft 3 my favorit blizzard charater ever :thumbsup:

blitz.fenix 11-02-2004 06:45 AM

what problems did you encounter? When I was carving my pumpkins it started to cave in a bit, made it pretty difficult.

Mister Coaster 11-03-2004 05:43 PM

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.

Coppertop 11-05-2004 09:55 PM

Holy fuck, I've never seen such sweet jack o' lanterns. Awesome job!

KinkyKiwi 11-10-2004 03:04 PM

Maassen 11-10-2004 09:48 PM

Undead hero of Warcraft 3.. the lich. :)

Damnfinn 11-27-2004 06:53 PM

Try coating all the cut surfaces of the pumpkin with vasoline, lightly.
I found that the pumpkin would last longer.

cellophanedeity 09-26-2005 12:26 PM

I just thought I'd bump this. I was curious about the actual carvings, and this deserves some attention

I'm quite impressed!
