It's a gremlin! (mustard mitt it took me a while). I recommend more hallucinogenics.

It thought it was Wicket, the ewok, until I realised he wasn't very Halloweeny, good effort.

It's supposed to be Gizmo, the Mogwai out of Gremlins:



Obviously it doesn't :lol:

Now that I have taken all the acid the resemblance is obvious...  ;)

Nearly a week after the event, but for the record:



This is a melon, BTW. And yes I was stuck for carving ideas.

ah sorry but I don't have a photo., I did dracula with a bat flying over his shoulder, pretty tricky and looked OK ish but we'd run out of tea lights so it was head torch powered.
I can provide something to make up for the lack of pumpkin and that is me dressed as the INCREDIBLE HULK... I'm sure fiendy will sort it...

Did you 'shop those little legs in Fiend? How unrealistic.

Speaking to a lass who was up there. She thought you'd turned up as a green alien. I can't see how she got the two mixed up. An alien in ripped, cut down jeans for fucks sake.

Yeah leprechaun was the other insult I received as well as being verbally abused by some youths wielding cans of special brew.
All the pics taken on my camera are sh*t. I do however like to think that Ryan was somewhat inspired having a superhero spotting him...

Was it not a tad cold bouldering in shorts at night at this time of year, or did the stocking keep you nice and warm?
