“Yours, Cruelly,” Elvira Pumpkin. This Portrait Of Cassandra Peterson Was Hand Carved On A Modified “Commander” Style Funkins Brand Foam Pumpkin
It’s the largest foamkin I’ve ever done. Minus the stem, it’s about 22” tall.
While the pumpkin shell itself was pretty thick for a foam pumpkin, the texture of this foam was pretty light, similar to Funkin’s “Natiello” models. That means because of the foam’s low density you don’t need to carve very deep to bring out the light. However, it makes it more difficult to get richer and darker shades like you would with something like a Boland model Funkin that is more dense. The foam thickness was also a little inconsistent, like thin in some spots but thicker in others. Thankfully that didn’t interfere with my design too much, but it did make it harder to get more realistic shading in places like her hands.
The whole carving took about maybe 12-16 hours over the course of a week and was carved with various rotary bits, X-ACTO knives, and other pointy things. I hope you like it!
