'Pac-Man' Rendered in Pumpkin Form

Pac-Man Rendered in Pumpkin Form
Virtual pumpkins are fine for a little indoor holiday spirit, but nothing beats an interestingly carved version of the orange and fleshy variety, especially when it's with a geeky, video game theme. That's what we've got with the set of pumpkins (and gourds) above, a clever set of carvings posted at Indestructables, which took a lot of creativity, but no intricate carving skills.

The two ghosts, Pinky and Clyde (where's Inky?), plus Pac-Man himself are carved from your typical pumpkins, while the power pellets appear to be small gourds, and the cherries are crab apples held together with a little wire. They're all coated in fluorescent paint, ensuring that they glow with a trippy hue when illuminated via black light. It's the perfect decor for a gamer this Halloween.
