Pumpkin Pot, year 2.

So, once again, we proved that I'm a huge dork. I carved my pumpkin like a greek vase again this year.

First one to guess what it is gets the prize of knowing that you're just as big of a dork as I am.

If you want to show it to others, please do so. Maybe I can start a trend.

So you know, I'm not artistic enough to do that by myself. I printed out the picture of the vase I wanted to use, duct taped it to the pumpkin and then used a knife to cut small lines around the outline of the figured. I learned from last year and took a bit of artistic licence in leaving in bits so important pieces of pumpkin stayed attached.

I never would have guessed what it was, but that's really cool. I love the way it looks in the dark with the candle inside.

I liked your Achilles/Ajax pairing better - hey, will you try a Black-figure version?
