2010 Halloween Pumpkins

BlueTyke · October 30th, 2010, 03:06 PM

Lets see em!

Here are my three:

Two of them are haunted houses, two of them are 'shadowed' and one is a black widow spider!

The far left haunted house has a shadow of ghosts and the black widow has a shadow that says "trick-or-treat" .

I'll get better pictures later. Phil needed my camera to go to Eastern State Penn tonight.

The last haunted house in the dark:

I didn't see this thread anywhere else if there is one already feel free to tell me and I'll post there.

Hi Sunny! It might just be me, but I'm not seeing any pics in your post? tinypic is just hanging, no matter what browser I use.

kkim · October 30th, 2010, 05:06 PM

I can see the pics just fine.

I wish I had talent like you to carve punkins.

Sailariel · October 30th, 2010, 07:06 PM

Sunny, They are beautiful! You have to be the artsiest (Is that a word?) person on this forum. Happy Haloween.

Rosie · October 30th, 2010, 07:29 PM

Nice pumpkins!

I am not artsy at all.. so no pumpkin carving for me...

kevlarorc · October 30th, 2010, 07:37 PM

that's impressive. I'd cut my fingers off attempting something like that.

Alex · October 30th, 2010, 07:42 PM

OK, now I'm curious. They still aren't showing up for me. What's wrong with me?

Bet you worked on that one--a new PC term maybe?

BlueTyke · October 31st, 2010, 12:11 AM

Mmm I am not sure Alex. Thats kind of a loaded question...

Thanks guys! It takes patients I have when doing crafts but mostly I don't have it. I also do it because Phil's Aunt really enjoys Halloween and we weren't able to decorate so I made these to help out

Not laying claim for that... I am kinda all over the place.

ally99 · October 31st, 2010, 05:47 AM

Very nice! How long does it take you to carve each one?

That is just wrong! I happen to know, not from personal experience of course but through other means... That there are websites dedicated to helping those in your position. Perhaps you should give them a looksee.. Try googling ... Melon Love...

(I am sooo teasing!)

As for how long... It depends on the design. The spider one was my warm up and it took me maybe twenty minutes to place the design and carve it out. Pitting isn't very long. I have a beautiful scraper that works really well.

The two haunted houses took a bit more because of the details. In total I think it was... about three hours? Give or take a break or two.

Here's my pumkins

ScraitT · October 31st, 2010, 11:46 AM

And here's my 2 from last year since we are talking pumpkins...I really liked these

kevlarorc · October 31st, 2010, 11:55 AM

hahaha that pumpkin on the right is awesome "YOU MONSTER!"

Mrs.Rwheelz · October 31st, 2010, 06:25 PM

Hey ScraitT, what is the tongue made out of in the puking pumpkin?

BlueTyke · October 31st, 2010, 07:20 PM

OMG those are great! I love them!

Pumpkin. I took the cutout from the mouth and shaped it into a tongue, ehld in place with a few toothpicks

RedCromwell · November 1st, 2010, 04:23 PM

Totally forgot about carving pumpkins this year.

But I remembered to get some free candy!

onetruevibe · November 1st, 2010, 04:51 PM

ScraitT's got nothing on me:

Mine so sucks....but hey.

Blackwidow · November 1st, 2010, 05:13 PM

Flow · November 2nd, 2010, 02:09 PM

Noone? Alright, fine.

GeneJunkie · November 2nd, 2010, 10:52 PM

BlueTyke · November 4th, 2010, 05:14 PM
