So I started carving pumpkins related to current happenings at Bungie last year. Last Halloween, Halo 3 had just come out so I made this beauty. Some guy in town dressed up as Master Chief for Halloween. He approved of my pumpkin. =]

This year, I made this. Seems like a fitting design, don't you think?

I made these using a relief cutting method (where you thin parts instead of cutting holes). A candle, therefore was way to dim to effectively light it up. I use a 120 Watt light bulb instead. =]

On a side note... both of these are carved using nothing more than a standard screwdriver and a keychain pocket knife.

Please, feel free to post any Halo or Bungie related pumpkins here.

Edit: sorry, I lied above... I also used a spoon to gouge out the SI's eyes. =]

Edit 2: New pumpkin posted. See below.

There's a word for what I am, but I can't pronounce it.

BFA, CCS - olde and bony & one minute musings.

Hah! Those pumpkins are awesome!
Love the SI one. ;-)

Awesome work, unfortunately I haven't made any pumpkins yet, though. ;'(

Well, it seems I've carved the SI too early...

It rained last night. I went outside to unplug my pumpkin and it smelled like pumpkin pie... (kinda awesome actually). There was steam or smoke or something rising from the SI's face and now he looks like this. (Here's a pic of how it used to look in daylight for comparison)

*tear* He was so young...

Anyway, I'm heading out to the pumpkin farm now to find a replacement. I should have the new one carved up some time this weekend.

I'll post it in this thread when I finish.

Make something different. You made an epic SI, an epic chief, make an arbitor or somthing (is arbitor o or e?)

Epic. Truly, Truly Epic!

And... Done.

Here's the new one. SI Mark II. =]

Thought I'd mix it up a bit.

Here are some daylight pics of it:
Pic 1 | Pic 2

And here's another lit up pic that looks a bit different.

This pumpkin had the consistency of a block of wood... I had to carve it with a set of chisels... not very precise. Likewise, I sort of may have chipped off a chunk of the SI's face near the right eye... Woops.

This is the work of a true pumpkin carver ;-)

So this is what I've heard so much about online.

98% of the people who play this game are garbage. If you're one of the 2% who isn't, copy & paste this into your signature.
