Description
Part 2 of the Halloween pumpkins from '10. This one is a Black Lantern symbol, as part of the Blackest Night comic series. For those who don't know, the Black Lanterns are a group comprised of deceased characters from the comics and are dedicated to eliminating all other colors of the emotional spectrum.
I like how this one turned out a lot better than the Green Lantern pumpkin, mainly because it looks neater, a bit more detailed, isn't crooked, and was more of a challenge. The middle line of the five lines at the top of the design was scraped a bit thin on the inside and I made a logistics error in carving. This left it very wobbly, so I had to spend about 45 minutes gingerly holding it while I carved the rest of the lines so as to keep it from breaking.
