Community comments about this entry:
Vissic: I love this pumpkin, and I don't even play a Blm or Taru. I don't know, there's just something about it. Not only did you create awesome shading, but I'm really impressed with how you were able to create multiple levels of it. I also really like the minimal use of completely carving through the pumpkin. It creates a great contrast, and really allows those parts to stand out nicely.
Aksannyi: Black Mage is spectacular, and I really love the way it's carved so that it shows realistic shading, that takes a lot of talent, so that's the one that got my vote.
Greenray: Black Mage is simple in execution, but visually appealing. The detail is faithful to the original concept being represented, but does not overwhelm the eye with minutiae in an attempt at complexity. You see a fully developed character as opposed to a silhouette, with details firmly defined by delicate shading. Add to that the fact that sorcery is obviously a relevant theme at Halloween, and you've got another pumpkin that crosses FFxi boundaries into mainstream decoration.
Arketa: This shows exceptional artistic talent. Pumpkin's not the most friendly medium to work with, but you've definitely nuked it into submission.
