2011 Zilvia Pumpkin Carving Contest

[Phlip]

I know it is late in the game for this, but I figured it at LEAST worth a try.
Pumpkin Carving contest.


Here’s how it will go:

Post a pic of your pumpkin and there must be a date stamp or SOMETHING on the image showing that the image was taken during the month of October this year and with your screen name to prove you aren't shitting me.
On October 31, I will close the thread to new entries and make a poll for everyone to vote on.

The 1st place winner will get a year’s premium membership. If already a premium member, you will be extended a year.
If a member of the staff wins, the premium membership goes to the runner up.

Now let’s see those pumpkins!

[punxva]

although its probably too late here's the one i carved for the house with pretty much a drill and routed it out lol. Used safety wire from the garage to stitch the mouth closed, although i could have used zipties for the jdm zilvia zomg awesomesauce look. Added the name tag that i found in a car at the local pick and pull to add character.

I did a Jack Skellington last year. I thought I took a picture of it, but can't find anything, just pictures of the carving process.
