Man, you have skills with a carving knife, that's a really nice job, major props. I can't even make decent face.

That is so awesome!
Make me one! xD

I would try and carve a pumpkin...but...when it comes to sharp objects...i'm not good with them. xD Plus, i don't have the skills and patience. >_>

haha yeah, i carved it into the face of the pumpkin.

it's actually a lot easier than it looks.

if you want to attempt something like it:
1) get a pumpkin and hollow it out
2) pick a simple design (not too many colors or details, kon was fairly easy)
3) print out your design and stick it onto the face of a pumpkin (tape works)
4) use a push pin to trace out the inside and outside lines of the design
5) now carve along those lines (visualize the lines as the uncut part)
6) peel away the excess skin (non-lines)
7) scrape the inside so a light source can glow through
8) place candle
9) finish

The whole project took about 1.5 hrs. I made it for pumpkin carving contest and won 1st place :D

Go Bleach (and Kon)!
