I ended up waiting till the last minute to carve the pumpkin I got this year. The fiasco that came from the last pumpkin I carved (and painted) a couple weeks back kept me from wanting to start on this one too early, since the last one rotted to quickly and gathered a horrible horde of fruit flies. That thing hadn't even been carved for more than three days and it was horribly rotted
I was pretty much set on doing a pumpkin carving design of Shuichi Shindo from Gravitation from the get go. Him being on stage, singing under the stage lighting...it just seemed like the perfect concept. I had planned on adding the Charmed Ones' Triquestra as an added bonus, but ended up running out of time and space, so I didn't get around to it.
Thanks
