New Pumpkinhead Folk in the Works


Recommended Posts

Halloween always gets my mind going with spooky thoughts...rather like the rest of the year, but more so.

Now I have been making Pumpkinhead/Jack O'Lantern Folk for quite a while...here's an album of them:

Then I stumbled on this illustration on Pinterest,  AND I had to try that sunny smile:

I was fairly pleased with the test results:

I did a second one  with what I had learned from the first:

...with a closer look:

The second is closer to the size of the Reaper Jack O'Lanterns that I usually use for the Pumpkinheads. The first is a bit larger. I may wind up using a GW Orc torso

like this one from  2017:

The legs are GW Zombie legs.

This another possibility:

OH THE POSSIBILITIES!

...I have some high hopes for the new O'Lanterns. AND posting the pics has started a small flood of ideas for new &, in one instance, larger Pumpkinheads....HALLOWEEN FOREVER!

Thanks for the reply, Wolf.

Pumpkin season is the best season.  Still loving everything you do!

 

...it would be WONDERFUL to have a week of Summer & a week of Winter separated by long months of Spring & Autumn.

I have had at least one memorable pumpkin picking expedition. The brisk air of Autumn always seem to bring those memories back.

I am glad you enjoy the stuff, BLZeebub. I have four more dollies for the Jack O'Lanterns drying. Have I mentioned my tendency to get carried away with things?

...I thought so.

Pumpkin pony? Pumpkin lizard? Pumpkin cat?! Pumpkin basilisk?! I DON'T KNOW!!

 

...same here. Being a Pumpkinhead seems like too cruel a fate for a furry, little critter.

I think I will stick with bipedal, humanoids.

Just getting excited about the pumpkin project!

 

Have fun!

Nice! Great work in the album.

 

fwiw, Secret Weapon Miniatures and Ral Parth Europe have a Field of Screams bases and animated pumpkin miniature respectively. 

 

 

Thanks, ced...inspiration is always welcome! Secret Weapons has some splendid ideas to mimic.
