Carved pumpkin pictures to help you create the perfect Jack-o-Lantern
A few years ago I saw the two best carved pumpkin pictures on the inernet that I’ve ever seen, or even imagined. The first was of a large pumpkin with a surprised or startled look on its face. Two eyes, round in shock, a nose, and then a gaping, wide open mouth to complete the piece. Doesn’t sound like much, but the cherry on top was what was coming out of the mouth.
In this particular carved pumpkin pictures, the guy who’d done the jack-o-lantern had taken the innards – the seeds, strings, sinews and otherwise – and arranged them in a manner to make the jack-o-lantern look like it was vomiting. It was gross, but absolutely hilarious.
The other best of the carved pumpkin pictures I’ve seen was of a large pumpkin, this time carved with a fierce mien. Two narrow, angry eyes, a nose, and then a gigantic mouth filled with large fangs. Sounds like a normal jack-o-lantern, but again it had a special surprise. This one’s was a smaller pumpkin, itself carved with a look of astonishment on its face, shoved into the gaping maw of the larger, fierce pumpkin. It ended up looking like the larger pumpkin was eating the smaller pumpkin, it cracked me up, and it’s a jack-o-lantern I ended up making myself though admittedly mine was not as good.
Ok, I just googled carved pumpkin pictures and I have to say I’ve found one that might outdo the both of them. This one is a large pumpkin carved into the shape of the Death Star from Star Wars. Included was the main weapon, the trench that runs down the Death Star’s equator, the paneling, and a candle on the inside to provide it with an appropriate glow. Wow. That’s the king of carved pumpkin pictures, and takes a degree of artistic skill that is miles beyond anything I could muster. I’m in awe.
Another one that’s shockingly good is a pumpkin hollowed out and carved to make it look like there’s a tree in the middle, and further carved with a body hanged from one of the tree’s branches. On the other side is a carved grave. It’s pretty great, and I recommend you check it out if you can.
There are, of course, many others out there for you to admire. Everything from a pumpkin carved into a bust of the Predator, to traditional jack-o-lanterns done to a level impossible to imagine without seeing them.
