Arch Linux Pumpkin Carving!

After seeing Best Halloween Pumpkin Carvings from Ghost1227's blog, it inspired me to do a unique pumpkin carving this year. Looking through the archive of awesome pumpkin carvings, of course I didn't see Arch Linux (but there was Tux fortunately). So I wanted to make that carving! I planned this days ahead, thinking how the design should be. I did a practice carving before I did this one, which I made several mistakes on. Considering that was only practice, this second one came out much better! Happy Halloween!

Considering that I had the method down after the first time, it took me at least 3 hours to carve this one.

Re: Arch Linux Pumpkin Carving!

After I was requested on #archlinux to make my carving pictures into a wallpaper, I took a much bigger picture using a better camera. Although the carving looks a little molded after leaving it alone for a day, I'd say it makes it look more "Halloween-ish." So here it is in 1280x1024 form. I can take requests for other sizes if desired. Enjoy!

Re: Arch Linux Pumpkin Carving!

Well I did two more pumpkin carvings at the last minute before the tricker treaters arrive.

One of them is a taco, because of how much significance tacos have in the Arch community! I hope you like it, I also included the moldy Arch Linux carving as well.
