Gary the Snail Pumpkin

Happy Halloween 👻

Here is a pumpkin I made of Gary the snail from the cartoon Spongebob Squarepants. 

I made the base from cardboard and his body is a plastic bag stuffed w paper. I went on top of that with paper mache and hot glued around the edge for his slime.

His eye stalks are dowels that I hot glued to the base. 

His eyes are styrofoam balls that I painted yellow-green with black pupils. I hot glued them on top of the dowel stalks. I painted his body and stalks blue and the slime neon green.

The pumpkin is his shell which I painted pink with a red swirl and purple dots. I cut off the stem and turned the pumpkin upside down.

I painted a container green for his food bowl and wrote Gary on it with black paint.

Thank you for stopping by and having a look.
