h*r jack-o-lantern

Postby Htom Sirveaux » Tue Nov 01, 2005 9:57 am

Pumpkin-carving is a great art form. I refuse to go with the traditional "scary face" pumpkin. It's just boring. I wish I'd had a digital camera last year (I carved The Cheat into a pumkin), but this year I've got one and I could take a picture of the fruit (or is it a vegetable?) of my labor. So, without further ado:

Image

I apologize for the dork on the right, but he insisted on being in the picture.
Anyway, I'm already thinking about next year. Oh, the possibilities...

You're now the coolest person ever. :P

That's one wicked awesome jack-o-lantern, SB.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Thank you. I honestly couldn't be happier with how it turned out.
My original idea was just to do a left-side profile outline of Homestar, like the Alfred Hitchcock thing. But when I sketched it onto the pumpkin, I realized that it didn't take up enough space, and probably no one would get both references at once, anyway.

Clever!

I have yet to try any of the pumpkin sketches on the HR website. Guess I'm too lazy even to use a knife. :lol:

There were pumpkin sketches on the website? I didn't know that. Ehh, I don't need those anyway. It's more fun when you do it all yourself.

That pic's kinda cool in a creepy jack-o-lantern way.

The pumpkin, too. :p

Yeah, the stuff on the site were just generic headshots of the characters. But kudos on making your own version of Homestar. :)
