Pennywise Carved Pumpkin

Happy Halloween,

Here is a carved pumpkin that I did of Pennywise the clown from the movie It. 






I cut the stem of the pumpkin off first. 
I then cut a hole in the bottom in order to scoop out the guts. 
I carved out the eyes and mouth and used Pumpkin Teeth which I inserted into the gum. 
I painted the entire pumpkin white. 
I painted the eyes and mouth red, blue for the eyelids, pinky red for the gums and black for his eyebrows.
I glued on a clown nose and his hair is made from red wool which I pulled apart and hot-glued to his head.

Thanks for having a look.
