Happy Halloween!

Some of you out there might know that I like to pay tribute to my favorite things in the form of pumpkin carvings. Last year was Castlevania: Curse of Darkness. I've made carvings of countless other games. This year, I decided to once again carve the Mortal Kombatlogo.

The last time I tried to freehand draw and carve the MK logowas exactly 10 years ago, to commemorate the SNESrelease of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. I don't have any pictures of it, but my skills in drawing and carving weren'tvery good then. This MK logo turned out much better. This carving is celebrate the release of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, another milestone the series has reached.

I started by freehanding the logo from memory, my games, and the internet. Once I was happy with the design, I had to find a pumpkin that could accomodate it with as large as I drew it. I pinned the drawing on, stippled it in, and started carving!

I used multiple LED lights to light it. I might have to try to take better pictures of it tomorrow. I'm not too worried about it rotting much between now and then because it is below freezing tonight. Let me know what you think of this pumpkin!!

Take care everyone! Happy Halloween!!!!

That thing looks excellent! If I had seen something like that in my trick or treating days I'm sure we would have been talking about it with friends for days afterwards. "Sure, we got that loot, but remember that awesome pumpkin? " I'd take a pic of our mini-pumpkin, but who wants to see something so basic?

You are just.....so cool Dan! I gave you 1000 cool points for the CoD pumpkin, I guess I'll have to add another 5000. Hopefully the evening frost will preserve it a little, hope you get to enjoy that for a little more time! You have an awesome talent!

That is an incredible job! A pity you only do this once a year. Those skills could stand to be showcased a bit more often.
