My close friend made me a ghost orchid pumpkin and have challenged me to be creative. So here it is. What do you think?

That is so cool!! Where do you get those fake pumpkins and how do you 'carve' them? I'm assuming that this one is fake like your ghost one.

Thanks Camille, they come from a craft store and are made of some kind of foamy plastic. This one is done with a dremal tool with a small grinding stone. The work was done by hand.

I couldn't let my ghost pumpkin be alone so I made a Neokin to keep him company.

Dave, that's awesome, great job. How big are those "pumpkins"? I bet they have other holiday carvings? That could be an addictive hobby, very cool.
