Halolzween 2011 Pumpkin Carving Contest Runners-Up

Yes, finally… I have some contest runners-up to post! Sorry for the delay but Fred and I were out of town until Nov 7th for Youmacon and we fell a bit behind! It was a tough decision as we had a lot of favorites, but we decided to limit ourselves to ten runners-up this year:

Uber Pimpkin by CG
Nyan Over The Moon by ZombieFembot
Gish Pumpkin by OmeletGood
Hey Listen! by Kyasuri
Item Triforce by LadyFiede
TF2 Scream Fortress Pumpkin by K-Stop
GLaDOS by Sussi
The Crashers by Saxon216
Haberdashpionage by UDNTNOME
Locust Meatshield by XV Mr 14 VX

These folks all win a shirt of their choice from Level Up Studios!

Again, there were many more favorites we would’ve liked to pick… but we really had to limit ourselves! However if you submitted an entry this year and included a mailing address you’ll be receiving a small bonus prize just for entering!

Congrats to everyone for another successful year of vegetable artistry! You guys are truly amazing!

Yes! Yes! We’ve finally got some winners for ya! Emily, Fred and I put our collective heads together and have named the following entries as our grand prize winners! These winners will receive the respect of their peers, along with that juicy Level Up Studios store credit!

Halolzween Winner AU 313

Our most creative winner this year was Primevil with his amazing pumpkin rendition of Metroid Prime 3’s Aurora Unit 313! You may remember some of his previous work when he won prizes in our first year and second year contest with his impressive Metroid themed carvings! Who knows what Metroid themed thing we’ll see next year!

Halolzween Most Detailed Winner

Our most detailed winner this year was ceemdee, who for a second year swept the category with her incredibly beautiful carvings! We featured these three in particular because each judge had a favorite… Emily voted for “Bastion,” Fred voted for “Ico” and Shawn voted for “Minesweeper.” However you have to admit that all her entries were extremely well done!

Halolzween Most Humorous WInner 2011

And finally our most humorous winner this year was “Pumpkin Gaiden” by newcomer Sir Zebulon Anselm Löwe lll! His Ryu Hayabusa pumpkin literally destroyed the competition, along with most of his front yard!

Congratulations again to all our grand prize winners, and stay tuned for our next post where we will announce our eight runner-up winners!

I would say this lyrical rendition of the Ghosts n’ Goblins theme by brentalfloss is perfect… except I feel like there was room for some kind of joke about having to beat the game twice!
