Ok, I know I saw a thread about how to take the best pictures of your pumpkins but for some reason I can't find it. I'd like to be able to get rid of that "glowing around the pattern" so just the pattern is lit up. Any advice?

You can decrease the exposure time and try increasing the extrerior lighting a little. a tripod is a must. It will help with the focus. I usually try a few different exposure settings and different angles.

I hope you all like and are confused by my first pumpkin of 06' Dang it was a bear. My first Funkin' and a tricky pattern to say the least. Hope you like it.

How did you carve something with a pattern that hasn't been released yet

[Joey]

Some of us make our own patterns. This place isn't just for posting zombie pumpkins.

In other matters... Davey Jones! Yay! Anyone who can play an organ with their face is awesome in my book.

except that IS a ZP pattern.

[Joey]

Is it now?

[Aylortay]

Yup. Currently only released as a MySpace profile picture.

I saw Pumpkingrower's picture and I thought, "You sneaky little bastage!" ROFL

That stencil is worthy of a Funkin but I think I'm going to carve all three PIRATES patterns on real pumpkins and make them the centerpiece of my small display.

BTW: I just read that PIRATES 2 is about to reach the 1 Billion dollar mark...wish I had some of that booty*, mates! Arrr!



*insert favorite Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, or Johnny Depp joke here

It will be a ZP pattern.. but as THE Patchmaster stated in earlier post..

"ZombiePumpkins said" The teasers I've put on Myspace aren't necessarily upates you're meant to see. Consider them to be like hidden "easter eggs," for those that know where to look.

I knew where to look and I took the egg and worked my own special computer magic to make it a pattern early. The important thing is I will still treat it as art of ZP.

[Aylortay]

It's cool that you're a member of the site, so no harm done I guess. But it's frustrating when people who don't donate for the patterns do what you did. People suck sometimes.

[Joey]

Aha, that explains my misunderstanding. I avoid Myspace like the plague on steroids.

I'll definitely carve this one when it's released.

Her are some of the pumpkins I have carved. Some are from Zombie and some are from pumpkin masters patterns.
I originally started with real pumpkins however these are all craved on artifical pumpkins.

I love your PM stencil picture 05 last one on the right. I entered a carving contest at work with that stencil but put red LED's in the eyes.. thought for sure I would win.. but nope. Anyway looking forward to seeing your work this year. Don't forget a little foreground lighting so we can see the pure face of your evil wee punkins!

I only have 3 of those PM patterns. All of those carvings looks great!!
