I thought I would make a topic about the carved gourds so those of here who celebrate can showcase our artwork before it rots and becomes splattered over our own respective shooting ranges.... which should be another topic in about 2ish weeks...

as a matter of fact, NO, i just used my X-acto kit and a kitchen knife, and when i "de-carve" them I think ill use golfballs, and maybe a baseball or two...
