Those of you who know me know I absolutely LOVE Halloween. It's the one time of year, where I don't feel guilty for scaring little kids or big kids (I did scare some UA football players a couple years ago *grin*)... Anyway, back in High School, I started a hobby of designing something to carve in my pumpkins each year. I try to take pictures of 'em all and tweak the designs every year.

This Werewolf design is a little older. It's not my best, but I felt it a good representation of my work with respect to pumpkins. I had to poll people to get ideas for something different for 2002's pumpkin design. In the end, it came down to a werewolf or Dr Jekyll & Mr. Hyde or a Mad Scientist motif. I choose the werewolf. Carving time is approximately 1.5 hours. The difficulty is moderate. (Note: There are no design flaws.)

If there's anything you'd like to see a pumpkin pattern of, let me know. I wouldn't mind the extra ideas, but I do call dibs on carving it for Halloween before anyone else *wink*

Nov 2011 Update: Just a reminder to people that this image is NOT "public domain"-- I own the copyright and I'd like to keep it. I would prefer you link back to my site, so I can maintain credit for my own art. I'm extremely annoyed to have discovered this had been included in a "public domain" site with no credit given.

I think that is an awesome design--the hairs on the wolf seem to be a challenge, but I am sure when pulled off, the whole pumpkin has a greater effect! 2 I bet putting a few more indications of trees around the whole pumpkin would be a neat thing, too. Nice design!

:-) Kathryn J. Hammond replies: "Thanks! I just did a White Rabbit (from Disney's Alice in Wonderland) pattern. It tops this one, but I cannot post it at Elfwood (I don't have enough fan art to start a gallery). Feel free to use this and any of my other pumpkin patterns if you so desire. I keep them available for free use.Thanks for the comment(s)!"

Awsome pumpkin design, it rocks.

:-) Kathryn J. Hammond replies: "Thank you! I do take requests; however, I'm swamped with things to do right now so if you wanted a custom p'kin pattern, it would have to be for next year!"

Sorry, I messed up that last post. I did a werewolf jack ’o Lantern as well! Here is a picture of the final pumpkin carving:http://http://lazywolf.deviantart.com/art/Werewolf-o-La-------ntern-24667824Missing [/URL]![/URL]

:-) Kathryn J. Hammond replies: "Wow! I didn’t even think anyone visited my gallery anymore. Your carving looks superb. Thanks for linking me to the photo-- I really enjoy seeing my pumpkin art show up somewhere besides my own house! I do custom drawings (for free) as I’ve time, so if you have an idea for next year’s pumpkin, let me know. I’ll see what I can put together."

Hey there! This is Lazywolf from DA again! It’s Oct 2009 and I’m looking for another werewolf pumpkin carving to do. You said you’d be interested in possibly designing another pattern? Let me know if you’re still interested! 2

Here’s the link to my account again just in case: http://fav.me/d1owjrt

:-) Kathryn J. Hammond replies: "Lazywolf- I’m not sure how much time I have to draw something for you for 2009. I moved, so I’m a little behind on my own Halloween-- I’m working on paper mache filled candy "bombs" and a cannon to shoot candy at kids right now... If I have a few moments of free time, I’ll make an attempt to draw something for you. Another werewolf, you say? HmMmmMm... I’ll see if I can think of a good pose."

:-) Kathryn J. Hammond replies: "You’re going to use my pattern for Twilight? Eeeew! J/K

If you use my pattern, I’d love to see a photo of your pumpkin."

:-) Kathryn J. Hammond replies: "My thoughts exactly. *wink*
... I’m just glad they didn’t find the one I drew for Lazywolf. *grin*"
