Please visit my gallery! Thanks ;)

Characters from the Naruto series. Many sharp objects were used, but this year (2006) I found the wood carving tools very useful.

There are many things I'm proud of... and not so proud of. I think the rushed parts are apparent enough.

Again, thanks for all the faves and views -- over 27,000 9,000!!!!

FAQS (questions get repeated a lot...):

Q: How much time did it take?
A: All night, not including the planning stages and sketches. I'd estimate 12 hours or more just carving. I doubt I will ever spend as much time on another pumpkin.

Q: Do you use real pumpkins?
A: Yes, all the pumpkins I have used are real.

Q: Why is the skin on your pumpkins so thick?
A: They're just regular pumpkins I've found at grocers and produce stands. Some optical tricks are also employed to give the illusion of thick skin.

Q: Do you like Gaara?
A: Yes, Gaara and Naruto are a couple of my favorite characters in the series. I love the fox and tanuki (racoon) themes that they portray, like out of Japanese mythology. I am not a Sasuke fan...

Q: Did any trick-or-treaters recognize him?
A: Sadly, no. I did bring it to a party where some anime fans loved it but the general public was quite oblivious.
