Damn. That kicks my Mario's ass. I wish I had any idea of how to actually sculpt the pumpkin like that. That's fantastic

Golem Mario? What does he have to eat to get that? Possibly a piece of the Torah? Or the Hebrew word for "life" on a piece of paper?
That is some damn fine pumpkin carving!

Do you happen to know Final Fantasy games? And the bombs in them? That's what the lit Mario reminds me of.

Thats both creepy and awesome. I cant imagine putting that much effort into something thats going to rot away in a relatively short amount of time, but it looks awesome. ^^

He does that very same glow for his main special kick in one of his football/soccer games.

I never thought of that before. Although, for it to really look like smash ball Mario the whole thing sort of has to be on fire
