Informal Pumpkin Carving Event

[johloh]

I got to thinking after the recent pumpkin posts that we should have a quick challenge (deadline halloween, OCT 31st ) of a pumpkin carving contest. Most people are carving pumpkins anyway, and its done basically in one sitting, so the short deadline isnt that bad?

plus we need something to hold us over till a new challenge starts in NOV/DEC....what does everyone think??

I, personally, don't like carving pumpkins, but it would be cool to see what everyone could come up with!
yes vote from me!

I carved a pumpkin...but it was of a normal kitty cat...nothing gamer about it (was at my grama's! she said it was good lol)

[jeala]

I'm with Nintandrew. . . I'm not into carving pumpkins, but I love to see what cool designs people do! I vote yes for this as well.

I slap a big YES vote down for this, mainly because I've never carved a pumpkin before and this gives me a good excuse to do it! ^^

"Hey, <family member>, let's get a pumpkin and carve a sweet game thing into it cos there's another challenge on at Sprite Stitch!"
Yeah...that sounds good...*races off to make it happen*

This is a pumpkin my friend did, I don't own the picture so no claiming it as your own. XD (It's not my submission btw)

I think I'll give this a go. Yeah, I'm a noob, but I've been reading my 1989 Nintendo Game Guide today and feel slightly inspired. Plus, this wouldn't get in the way of the Christmas projects.

I think we'll just make this informal...I'll be carving a pumpkin tonight! pics to come soon...

I am so in. My bf has been doing gamer pumpkins from his own patterns for as long as I have known him (only two years, but I am confident the tradition will continue). He'll help inspire me. Can't wait to pick out the perfect pumpkin on Thursday.
