THE 3rd ANNUAL TXI STAR WARS PUMPKIN CARVING CONTEST

The 3rd Annual TXI Star Wars Pumpkin Carving Contest


It's that time of year again and to celebrate TXI will be having another Star Wars pumpkin carving contest  


The winner will not be chosen until after the 31st so that everyone has plenty of time to participate if they want to .

Since pumpkins are not plentiful everywhere in the world , we will also accept entries made with watermelons , cantaloupes , honeydews or any other damn melon you can get your hands on - now even those of you who live in pumpkin deprived countries can participate  

I would also like to recommend "Funkins" (or any other brand of fake pumpkin) to those who enter . The fake foam pumpkins are easy to carve and will last you a lifetime . I like them because I can use them year after year and it helps make the effort that goes into carving a pumpkin more worthwhile  



The Rules :

#1) Your "Pumpkin" must be Star Wars related and have at least a small "TXI" carved , painted or drawn on it somewhere . Please be sure that the "TXI" is visible in at least one of the photos that you post  

#2) Your entry can be carved , painted or decorated in whatever way you see fit . Be creative in whatever form you like - as long as it is a Pumpkin (or Melon) and its Star Wars related we don't care how you present it  

#3) You may enter as many different Pumpkins/Melons as you like  

#4) Entries will be accepted from today through the 31st of October .


There will be 2 categories this year :

1) Traditional Style Carving

2) Sculpted Style Carving


Here are a few entries from previous years contests :

This was a bit of fun I had today,  carving this pumpkin with my son. Not a 2nd entry, just thought I'd share it with you guys. He wanted to carve his favourite character, Luke Skywalker. But after I explained that it would be very difficult to carve it to look like Luke. He decided on a Clone Trooper instead
