"Carved Pumpkin! (photo or sketch)" -- Sketch Topic for 10/16 - 10/22

Does a photo of a home baked pumpkin pie count? lol

Works for me!

I carve pumpkins twice a year...

Once at the yearly Halloween party, and once at home.

These were last year's.

The first is a recreation of the shower scene from Psycho. It took me almost 2 hours, because it was the first time I'd done something like that.

The curved holes at the top are the shower curtain.
The holes are supposed to represent water drops on the shower curtain that light is hitting.

This should be self-explanatory to EQ players

I won first place in the contest - by one vote - probably because of the nostalgia evoked at a Halloween party where 95% of the people were EQ players.

Our line up of pumpkins from last year, Mine is the one with the X's for eyes and nice teeth =D

I've never carved a pumpkin :X I'll have to try it this year.

Lovely work!

Not really happy with how this turned out. I'm not so good with color. I did it with felt tip pen and colored pencil, but after like 45 minutes of coloring layer after layer of colored pencil for the orange parts, my back hurt so bad that I had to give up, and abuse the burn tool in Gimp until it cried for mercy to get the pumpkin dark enough. And it still looks flat. Then I just filled the background with black and didn't even bother to clean it up. BLEH!
