lapseofreason Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 DISCLAIMER: No live pumpkins were harmed in the making of this Photo TR. I had a few more pictures, but my camera decided to use the flash constantly for some weird reason, and I can't un-carve a pumpkin... so... here it is. ...And here it is lit up. Thanks for looking and happy Halloween! Cool. Skulls rock. Ah... it seems Mr. Dead Pumpkin has decided to take on another life form Once I had poked holes to transfer the design (yep, another picture killed by the flash), Mr. Dead Pumpkin gets the first nasty cut to his face Then I taped the pattern of the design I wanted to carve onto the pumpkin. Haha, the flash worked out good this time... you can't see what I'm carving yet, bwahahaha. ...which then went down the garbage disposal of doom Stupid flash... but here is a bowl of guts This one really didn't come out, but a spoon was needed to dig out the inside The first cut is made. Mr. Pumpkin, you will be missed. :sniff: I put down some newspaper, just in case, then set out my "lobotomy" tools and a bowl to hold the brai.... uh, I mean pumpkin guts Mr. Pumpkin does not know he is about to meet his gruesome death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vjgx Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Nice Jack-O-Latern... But you should've kept those seeds to clean and bake and salt... they taste great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollerholden Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 ...which then went down the garbage disposal of doom I don't know why, but that struck me as funny! Next time you should cook the pumpkin seeds in the oven with salt and I think some oil (not sure though), it may sound weird but it tastes really good! The pumpkin looks great Amanda! Happy Halloween! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapseofreason Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 ROFL, I was going to cook the seeds but I didn't feel like it. They are good though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmousefan Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I think those pics looked really weird, but that pumpkin at the end looked awesome!!!! really nice work. We dont make pumkins like that here in mexico, we make altars for our death relatives instead. Ill be making one next tuesday when the festivities of the death start ( yes they start on halloween day ) and last until nov 2. Ill post a Photo report.

DarkStitch626 Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 The pumpkin looks cool but why didn't you just bake the seeds and eat them? Thats what I normally do anyway.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, nothing like home made pumpkin seeds, puts store-bought to shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
