Since I defs didn’t want to carve a real pumpkin to put on my head and get nasts pumpkin insides all over my hair I decided to paper mache one. Unfortunately there was no good tutorials anywhere so I will share my trial and error knowledge.
First I got some supplies: 1 Punch balloon (they’re rounder and larger they regular balloons), some paper mache stuff in a bag, cardboard, a glue gun, paint, sculpey clay, tape, some news paper and some water and flour mixed together.
I then put at least three - five paper mache layers of newspaper with flour water on the balloon. I also measured my head and left an opening at the bottom. (NOTE: Don’t put tape on the balloon and try to peel it off after you’re done paper macheing, RIP)
After that’s all dry I put glue gunned some cardboard onto it to give it some pumpkin like ridges.
Then I filled the gaps between the cardboard and the newspaper with the paper mache in a bag stuff. Wait for it to dry. (Note: Don’t pop balloon until the paper mache in a bag stuff is dry cause it holds a LOT of water and your paper mache project will sink, RIP) After that I popped the balloon and lightly dampened the top with a sponge and water until it was wet enough to slowly press down into more of a pumpkin shape.
After it’s all dry I taped a stem I made out of card board on the top and put another layer or two of newspaper mache over top.
More drying wait time (you can use your oven on the lowest setting to make it dry faster) then I sanded it down and cut out a face with an exacto blade.
I added a little bit of backing behind the face on the inside with the paper mache in a bag to give it more of a 3D look which wasn’t that noticeable but oh well, it kidna worked… After all that stuffs done I painted it all white otherwise the newsprint would bleed through and make my colours not as bright, I also added some sculpey clay to the brow area to give it some more emotion in which I used an iron to dry it with cause it was too late to put it in the oven with paint all over it (Note: Put clay on before painting).
I sprayed it with a sealer before painting colours on it cause I find acrylics do weird things sometimes. After it was all dry I begin to paint.
I also painted the inside a red and added a kinda head rest thing on the inside since when I pushed the top down it made an uncomfortable point at the top when putting it on your head. Then once it was all dry I sprayed it with some more sealer, added some cool stuff like stitches with some ribbon and blood which I used nail polish for a shiny effect and put in some lights which weren’t very effective when my head was in the pumpkin but that’s okay, it still looked cool.
And that’s that!
Hope this helps some people, Enjoy!
Hello I'd just like to say that Stanford Pines' thighs are thick and I want to lay kisses and bites on them. Thank you*walks off Earth*
but what if every single person in the undertale fandom woke up in undertale. like we all just ended up on the start menu and everyone had the chance to do a pacifist, neutral, or genocide run and we all just split up into 3 groups and went on the adventure in our groups.
and then when we get to a boss we all work together to fight and oh my god would that be perfect or what.
but whenever you get game over in game you wake up back in the real world but you still have whatever you got in the game. like you wake up in the real world with a spider donut and a stick.
but wait.
you also wake up with whoevers phone number you get. so, you can always call them in the real world.
also.
if you end up beating the game, when you reset, it starts your game over. you can keep playing the game, with whoever survives, as long as you don’t die.
nobody in the fandom knows how anybody got there.
but you all love it.
Can someone please write a fanfiction or a headcanon where Jaskier just has a Griffin, like he saved it as a chick cause it's mom died and now the Griffin thinks jaskier is it's mom. I'd live for some angry husband trying to kill Jas cause he slept with his wife and "Oop nevermind big monster". Pls someone ಥ_ಥ

My Millennium Rod is ready!!!
The build didn’t take too long or require too many materials: Wood, wooden sphere, wooden dowel, polymer clay, glue (PVA and super glue), paint and sanding paper, (and a passion for Yu-Gi-Oh! certainly helps :p) I didn’t have a tapered dowel so I had to sand a cylinder it in that shape by hand (if I had a lathe it would certainly have saved me time).
Big thank you to my dad for helping me out assembling the whole thing :)
As always, shoot me a message if you would like further information about this build and I will do my best to help you out!
I don’t think this fandom appreciates Randalls fronds enough.
They go from these wobbly little half flaccid head wieners
To these fuckin glorious long majestic head gear beauties.
