Pumpkin Carving and Roasted Seeds

Eeeeh, didn't have my camera that class, so not alot of photos...;A; 

Anyways, my pumpkin was the last in the bunch, so it's pretty odd looking, hahaha. Unfortunately, I didn't take a before picture either.

The pattern I did was based off of the Kodamas featured in Princess Mononoke.Instead of trying the usually carving, I thought I'd try something a little different. Scrapping the rind proved to be quite the challenge...turns out I didn't have enough time to do a decent job on it. XD




Quite the creepy looking buggers. X3
