My aunt sketched the face on the pumpkin and I carved it out. I seen the pattern you guys are talking about but it was way too small....But Thanks for the comments tho.

@MercuricOxide:
Two birds, one stone. Scrape the design into the outer shell, and not only do you still have an intact inner shell, you've _also_ got the ability to control shading by the depth to which you carve.

It's cool, but I don't think those who used a stencil should be compared to the actual original creations.

A+

Excellent job on the Mario! He's barely even connected!

Are we supposed to send pumpkin submissions to tipsATkotakuDOTcom? And is the email backlogged? Just curious if I should submit mine again.

This one better not win, people put out good ones from great games and Mario wins? Pick the one that looks the best and fits the feel of the day, not just Mario. If Mario was an instant win then just say that in the intro.

@kojirodensetsu:
I did one last year for the pumpkin carving event at my college last year. Maybe I'll make another Sonic for Kotaku, even though the contest period is over.

"Lovable Mario, his face carved from pumpkin, has served as a symbol of peace and prosperity"

if you say so, it must be true.

i'd imagine this is the look the goatse guy had on his face when that pic was snapped... vaguely surprised and dazed...

Looks like Mario ate a 10 strip a couple of hours ago. Nice job.

Though, I just realized that that's pretty difficult to stop from collapsing, hmmm..

All of these pumpkins have been pretty awesome. In fact, they inspired me to hold a pumpkin carving party at my house this weekend. It's been ages since I actually carved one!

My pumpkin carving skillz are nowhere near as 1337 as this guy's, though.

Not bad, but I find the ones with shading more impressive.
