@jameron, I have a serrated pumpkin-carving knife. After seeing the carving set you posted, I can see why I've had luck with VERY SIMPLE designs. For me, the Eli design would surely require sophisticated tools.

I've never carved a pumpkin in my life, but I know a few Americans that swear by the Dremel, it's quicker and much more accurate than hand carving, so I'm told.

No complicated tools are required...All one needs is a kitchen knife and imagination. Look what it did for Norman Bates!

So i finaly made it to the market again and i got myself a pumpkin for carving :D
And thanks to CyberGhostfaces stencil and all your good tips it was really a lot of fun! :D
So i made a few photos for you guys, i hope you like it.

First i got all the stuff set up nicely :D

I even had that big Psycho kitchenknife and to be honest i'm really glad that i didn't accidently stabed myself :shock: these things are tough to cut open :shock:
Image

But i did it and it looked superscary inside... I didn't expect such a creepy filling :shock:
Image

Image

so i transferd the stencil on the pumpkin and cut it out with the dremel-tool.

And this is the finished Eli Jack o'Lantern :D

Way to go, Daniel! I think you should show it to your nieces. ;)
