Continuing with my Donkey Kong themed 2020, here's my attempt at pumpkin carving this year:

DUDE!  That is fucking awesome!  How long did it take you?  Did you cut the whole way though, or mostly thin out the pumpkin flesh so the light shines through?

Thanks! It's been kind of a tradition the last several years for me to carve some cool pumpkins for my kids, starting with whatever they pick but deciding I should do one for myself too the last couple years. The girders were cut completely through, as was a couple spots on kong, pauline, and the oil barrel fire. I cut through completely on most of the ladder slats, but sides of the ladders and the rest was details were just cut about halfway through. The ladders would have fallen apart and the pumpkin was pretty thick, so it was tough to cut the smaller spots cleanly all the way through.
