As if Autumn Blazee wasn't going to be the ultimate pumpkin header. If she isn't a representation of 2018, I don't know what is.
The time has arrived to post the pumpkins sent for the EQD 2018 pumpkin contest! Hopefully you all had fun carving them, and thanks again for giving the rest of us something awesome to look at.
Head on down below the break for the pumpkins!
1 Cozy Back Off O'latern - Ioncorupterx
My best Brony friend carved a pumpkin with me too and we both had neat ideas.
Also long live crazy faces!

5 Nirik Pumpkin - mystic2u
I know, I know..... kirin's are the flavour of unicorn / pony / creature at the moment, and so are their counterparts, Nirik, but I HAD to do them. They're so frickin' badass!

16 Flutterbat Pumpkin - Pegapnea
I was at a corn maze while on a little vacation, and they were selling pumpkins. I decided on a whim to get one, and later decided to carve something with shading for the first time. Somehow I became really dedicated to it; and with a big sharp pocket knife, a smaller dull knife, and a pen, I made a thing. It turns out whittling skills transfer over pretty well to carving. I think it took me ~10 hours, but I wasn't paying attention to the time.
Unlit and side angles are on my DA for those interested.

18 Every Bronies Fear - Bronytrainman/Benjamin Br0ny
This was my pumpkin that I carved with ioncorrupterX and I couldn't think of anything until this popped in my mind. I think I messed up a little bit on the way I carved it but I think it's still good enough you can understand it.

19 Ponykin by "night" - Frith
Pony pumpkin in the bat cave with treats inside. The bats did not care for giant squash and the treats went uneaten. The stores were all out of fireflies in a jar so I used a battery powered LED array to light up the jack-o-lantern.

20 Ponykin by day - Frith
After two days of it getting ignored by bats, I put the pony pumpkin outside into the cool fall air. I doubt anyone will guess that it's a pony, my coworkers thought I'd carved a bat.

23 Cozy Glow pumpkin (EQD Annual Pumpkin Event 2018) - CMC_Scootaloo
Here is my new pony pumpkin for this year's Nightmare Night! This year, I decided for Cozy Glow. Originally, I was going to carve a different picture of her into the pumpkin, but this skull she had there..... It didn't leave my mind. It was too fitting and too perfect for Nightmare Night to not carve Cozy with this skull she treasures so much into the pumpkin.
I sadly had to make it in a very tired state and only on a small pumpkin, because I waited too long with buying one this year and then the good ones were gone already, but considering these circumstances, I think it turned out well.
