Since they're getting judged in daylight, I didn't want to do the jack-o-lantern thing, so I engraved (psh, carved? Eh, it's more engraved I guess!) a dragon on a funny pale squat pumpkin. I picked one of the unusual kinds because of the interesting contrast with the inner color, the smooth skin (so much easier to "engrave"!) and well, because it's different than a big orange pumpkin.
Oooh my fingers hurt! That's a lot different than the kind of work I normally spend my day doing!
Thanks Jan for the pics of me!
