Just saw your pumpkin and think it is great I have a few questions that maybe you can help me with. I am an artist Check out my webpage if you like.

I have done painting, digital painting, 3d art even realtime aquarium which you can see on my page. I thought that carving a pumpkin like you did would be fun, but it is much harder than I thought. If i used another material I think i would do a better job but pumpkins are hard for me to work with.
For a quick laugh check out my first attempt at pumpkin carving

When you are through laughing I need to know a few things if you have the time. You will notice in the image is looks lopsided because it is. I find it hard to control those tools ( I have sculpting tools and an x-acto knife. I want to go one way but can't get tool control, also I get a lot of stringy stuff happening. Getting detail makes more of a mess. Yours looks smooth I have a problem with that too. HELP
