Check Out My Pumpkin!

Anthony · 10-29-2008, 08:39 PM

i did this for my 3 month old son, i wanted him to have the coolest looking pumpkin in the neighborhood. i'm really happy how it came out considering i didn't have any proper pumpkin carving tools. took me about 2 hours tonite, give or take. well worth it.

THE JOKER (HEATH LEDGER VERSION)

for reference (not the pic that was used for the pumpkin though)

Fidatelo · 10-29-2008, 08:52 PM

Nice!

TimGuru · 10-29-2008, 08:53 PM

Wow, thats awesome. I'm lucky to get the guts scooped out without ruining the outside.

Anthony · 10-29-2008, 08:56 PM

i'm pleased.

Very nice.

Cheers!

Nice. I'm sure your 3-month-old son appreciates it.

Why would an infant like a pumpkin carved out that looks like the killer from No Country for Old Men?

Anthony · 10-29-2008, 10:22 PM

that's the pic that inspired me to do a pumpkin carving that was different than the ole jack o lantern. than i decided i was in the mood for something a bit more intricate and felt like challenging myself. good thing too, cuz when i told the wife about my original vomiting pumpkin idea she wasn't thrilled about it.

same reason why Elton John redid a version of "Norma Jean" for a dead Princess Diana. she couldn't appreciate it, but the thought counted nonetheless.

this is a happy thread, go find some kids to tell them Santa Claus doesn't exist.

B & B · 10-29-2008, 10:28 PM

Thats what Im doin' on Friday night, along with handing out my big bag full o' ramen noodles.

Nothing answers Trick or Treat like reaching deep into a big black glad garbage bag and pulling out Spicy Shrimp Ramens. Enjoy kiddo!!!

MikeVic · 10-29-2008, 10:32 PM

Is that the Old Country guy? I thought that was The Joker.

I think it was a nice gesture Anthony

Izulde · 10-29-2008, 10:42 PM

I thought it was Stalin.

Awesome pumpkin in any case.

Lathum · 10-29-2008, 10:47 PM

I will say that Anthony gets alot of shit around here, much justified, but when he talks about his son you can tell he is a good person who cares deeply about his family.

I thought the same thing, although mostly because of Anthony quoting the Joker in a later post.

That was one hell of an analogy. Kudos to you, that was out-of-the-box thinking on a first rate basis. I'm serious.

stevew · 10-30-2008, 12:28 AM

Man, if only you had a looped recording of the Joker's cackle laugh inside.

M GO BLUE!!! · 10-30-2008, 12:30 AM

Nice job on both the pumpkin & the reference to a sh*t song!

Now did you put the pumpkin in the kid's room with a speaker that you can make scary sounds with at 3am?

Karlifornia · 10-30-2008, 12:45 AM

Don't buy into the lies, people...I bought this same plastic pumpkin at Walgreens...they have all the movie villains.

Celeval · 10-30-2008, 08:39 AM

Pretty sharp. I want to try something a little more detailed like that next year.

Fidatelo · 10-30-2008, 08:40 AM

I thought it was the Joker as well. Either way, it's a cool face and a nice treat for the kid.

KWhit · 10-30-2008, 09:29 AM

I just finished my Wall-E pumpkin for my kids. I'll have to post a pic later.

MizzouRah · 10-30-2008, 12:03 PM

We're lame.. my wife bought some Mr. Potato Head like things to stick into our pumpkins...

Schmidty · 10-30-2008, 12:05 PM

Jack Nicholson?

Damn. I feel guilty now.

Still looks like Nicholson though.

Sgran · 10-30-2008, 12:53 PM

i carved my first pumpkin in 30 years last week. Being the token American here, everyone assumed I knew how to do it. I went on to Youtube for tips (good thing, too). My girl and her two friends drew the designs onto the pumpkin and then I hacked away. I then insisted the girls pull out the guts, but they quickly got grossed out so mom gave them spoons. Spoons! Over my dead body! it's Halloween! Hungarians just don't know nuthin.

it is the Joker my friend (Heath Ledger version). the only way it looks like the No Country for Old Men guy is if he were to take a razor to his face.
