Please don't ask me to post any more patterns; these are all I have. Almost all the pumpkin portraits I do are actually sculptures, so patterns aren't possible. I do have these that I'm happy to share with you. The one of "Party Time" was one I drew up for a Pumpkin Masters contest, and the only image I could find of it was the actual pattern that I used to make the pumpkin. Therefore, you'll see the punch holes in the pattern, and the image quality is not the best, but the price is right. I also scanned the pattern I made for Vincent Price, and you'll also see him here.
The beagle puppy involves a little of the partial cutting technique, but it shouldn't be too hard. The white areas are completely cut away, just like the other patterns, but the pumpkin skin is just peeled off the yellow areas, to allow just some of the light to come through. I use a small, cheap wood chisel to do this. The twinkles in the eyes are done with a small drill bit, twirled with the fingers.

The other 7 were done with the "Me on a Pumpkin" program, and I scanned the patterns to place here. I didn't get around to carving the ones of Ally McBeal, and Jack and Rose from Titanic, so I'm not sure how well the patterns will work.

Click on any title to view the pattern in you browser. You can then print it from your browser. You can also right-click on the title and choose "save link as" to save the file on your hard drive.

Good luck, and happy carving!

If you'd like to try the sculpting technique I use, you'll need some inexpensive wood carving tools. I found some on the web at: http://www.rexart.com/woodcarvingtools.html
