Gotta share, if only because I about killed myself doing this last night (note to self, next year - do not put off pumpkin carving until the night before Halloween). Normally on pumpkins we do very simple big face pumpkins (big round eyes, nose, big open mouth) - fairly easy stuff with little chance of screwing it up. This year, decided to be adventurous and try doing an 'intricate' design. Naturally, I picked Loki as the subject. My hand and wrist hurt, and I didn't get nearly enough sleep as I normally do because it took me so long to do it, but I think it turned out rather well .
