Well Halloween is right around the corner. And since they won't let me take my scrapper 6 out to go trick or treating and have some fun, I propose something a little different.

Anybody up for an online Pumpkin Carving Contest. The rules are simple:

You must use your Scrapper 6, and only your Scrapper 6 to carve your pumpkin.

What you carve must be a pumpkin.

Post a photo of your Pumpkin, and what ever else you carved with your Scrapper 6 and the rest of the board judges.

The grand prize winner gets crowned the "Pumpkin King" until next Haloween, unless we can somehow scrape together a prize worthy of such a valiant challenge.


So what say you? Do you think you can handle the intense pressure? Or will you crack under the strain?



Peace
Jerry

Clear is my favorite color.

I am all over this one!

Why not? It's dressed up in its sheath as a belt-mummy, isn't it?

Ok this is the start of it...I will work on it later tonight also....I will show the wrap around Scrap Yard around the sides....but this is all I have for now.

Sweet... good job. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Too cool Jason! That’s a really good job. I was planning on using my Coot this year to carve my pumpkin. Since they always rot so quick anyway, I like to wait until the week of Halloween, and get my pumpkin on clearance. Last year I got mine for $1 at Walmart. They also make cool shooting targets when they’re cheap too. Shotgun! *BOOM* Splat! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I’m not a very good artist, I usually make the regular type of pumpkin.

Just a reminder – I remember Warren mentioning that you could use pumpkin (or potato) to give a blade a grey patina. The acids in the veggies do this to the steel. So, if you don’t want a grey patina on your blade, don’t forget to wash it really well when you’re done. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Here’s some pics from my last pumpkin from 2005.

Here he is all lit up.










Aaaarrrrrghhh! It’s a two-headed monster! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />


Kinda like a totem pole…


Sallie had to check him out. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Awesome pumpkins!

Added a few flames aorund the Head and refined the "Scrap Yard" Hope it is allright....lost a few layers of skin holding the blade like a pencil. Only used the Scrapper for this project.....the pumpkin leaves some interesting stains on the blade....gonna try something with it.

Excellent work Jason !!!

Using the Scrapper wasnt like using a xacto knife for sure, but it turned out alright! Thanks for the words!

Just noticed the "Serenity" t-shirt.

Gravelface, are you a browncoat?
