Pumpkin Carving Contest 2011




:pumpkin::pumpkin::pumpkin::pumpkin:
May Jack-o-lanterns burning bright
Of soft and golden hue
Pierce through the future's veil and show
What fate now holds for you.

The Artisan Craft Gallery is thrilled to announce the 2011 Pumpkin Carving Contest!

October is now upon us, the nights are drawing in darker and the leaves are falling. Halloween is just around the corner so we want you to draw the curtains, light those candles and dream up some amazing, terrifying pumpkins for us to be spooked by!

The Rules


:pumpkin: Entries must be new and made after the start of this contest. (The 7th October.)
:pumpkin: You can enter as many times as you like, however you will only be able to win once.
:pumpkin: You can use any fruit or vegetable to carve, you are not limited to pumpkins.
:pumpkin: Prizes are subject to availibility.
:pumpkin: Volunteers/staff can enter but aren't eligible to win.

Judging


You will be judged on originality, creativeness, use of medium and overall effect - we want to be terrified or amused.

Judges
This Gruesome Quartet will judge you!
`FrockTarts `KubusRubus `UnicornReality and $Moonbeam13

Prizes


We have some awesome prizes on offer to tempt you into entering!
1st Place
2000 points, a years premium membership + a devwear shirt

2nd Place
1000 points or a years premium membership + a devwear shirt

3rd Place
636 points + a devwear shirt

Three Honorable Mentions will receive 636 points which is enough for a three months Premium Membership if they want it or the points to put towards something else.

Here are some previously submitted deviations to get your mind working!




So go forth my lovely deviants and let the dark side inspire your knife!
But be careful with sharp objects!

The deadline for this contest is November the 4th.



:heart:

:peace:

See, I wonder why this doesn't show up in our inboxes, yet the contest itself does...sometimes. Weird.

This pumpkin...! It got a Daily Deviation, and it states it's also the "Winner of the 2011 Halloween Pumpkin Contest". If so, congrats! And the full results can't be far off. But I find it weird that they would feature it like that prior to an official announcement. Are other admins, community volunteers, and higher-ups in on the results or judging process?

$Moonbeam13, ^FrockTarts and myself judged the contest. Another CV decided to feature it as a DD - I think the official announcement was before this though.
