went to the "Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular" at the Roger Williams Zoo last night - about 5000 jackolanterns carved and placed along a walking path through the zoo - VERY cool. at one point they had a volcano set up in a lake with a bunch of tiki and hula themed jackolanterns around it, and "aloha oye" being piped in through speakers. sweet.

Those are, by far, some of the best looking gourds I have ever seen. Nice work!

YO Mojo:
How about carving some pumpkins for Kahiki Moon? I just don't have any time for fun or enjoyment anymore.

Here is one I did for the boy last year...

I didn't very far into carving it before he says "It's a Tiki!"

now that there is a good kid :)

Jack O'Tiki was quite distraught over the fact that he wasn't nearly as attractive as BadMojo's carvings.

I always thought, always, that Tikis and Jack-O'lanterns had quite a bit in common. Whenever I place the two supposedly different items next to each other, they look like peas in a pod.

I was hoping Tpup would pop up on this thread...:)

Thanks, TraderPup, for the suggestion and step by step web page! I will be on Maui over Halloween this year, and was looking for something cool for outside our condo. This is perfect! And finding a tiki torch there should be easy.. probably easier than finding a pumpkin to carve. Mahalo!

BadMojo ----

PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE, come to Neptune Beach and carve our pumpkins! Those are AWESOME!!! We have no talent here at the Neptune villa!

Those are killer pumpkins Mojo, you should try wood for carving .Or do you only work with veggies ?

Oh my Gawd. Like a totally big Mahalo to Mojo for the pumpkin and castings. I'm freakin' at the coolness of these melon masterpieces. All the 'kins pictured above and Evil Homer, the quintessential representation of Halloweeniness. Mojo is the gourd god. Truly rad.

HEY TIKIGOON!
So I sent my mother a link to this post, to show here the differnt tikis, and she thought it would be a good idea to try to carve one of them in honor of me, since i haven't visited my family in awhile, and this is what she chose:
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Amazing tiki'o'lanterns! I was planning on doing a tiki-style-punkin, as well. I can't imagine mine coming out NEARLY as well as these; so if anyone knows where to find a tiki pumpkin carving stencil, please share.

Here is my attempt, I got bored and had some paint begging to be used

sweet man, i really like the combination of paint and carving.

this is what i intended to do last year, but did it tonite...

shee itt badmojo, do you live in a pumpkin farm? :) is each design shown in a separate pumpkin? how many you got going there? :)

beautiful work, as ever ~ i loved seeing them last year, and you've trumped yourself this year. style

H

Mojo the simpsons rock....the best...

T

Badmojo - you're pumpkins rock. Mine pale in comparison, but I like them.

The first one was supposed to be an actual jack-o-lantern, but when the nose broke off, I had to change to something else.

For the second pumpkin,I wanted to be a little more creative.

Happy Halloween!

This year I splurged a bit and decided to add some carvable foam Pumpkins to my usual jack-o-lanterns. I picked these up at Michaels. They come in various sizes and carve fairly easily. My usual Xactos & Lino Cutters didn't work very well so I ended up used my cordless Dremel Tool.

OMG! These are totally amazing! Do you use a pattern at all or is this simply your incredible freehand talent??

I am doing some Funkins myself this year but had NO idea they would carve this well with a Dremel??

Just fantastic stuff! Thanks for sharing!

Wow! Wacko with the Exact-O!

Beautiful carvings all. APPLAUSE !

MOJO is de pumpkin carvin' BADAZZ

i love this time of year, now mostly to see your pumpkins :)

M

Mojo carved a pumkin of the first Frankenstein for my wife & I. It's awesome. Looks like the real thing and the carving IS the real thing.

Great work Mojo. I really like the new Frankenstein as well.

When are you going to try your hand at actual Tiki's?


[ Edited by: MachTiki 2005-10-15 08:19 ]

mojo,

those are top notch!

Last year I tried to copy your Evil Homer and couldn't even come close. More please.
