There's a pumpkin carving contest this week, and the pumpkins are free, so I figured I'd give pumpkin sculpting a whirl. This is the result of about 3 hours with an x-acto knife and a medium sized loop tool.
For a first attempt, I'm pleased.
Subtractive sculpting is hard, especially when you're used to pushing clay and you're working on a round object with only about two inches of workable material before it becomes a dark, seeded void, but it's still quite fun.
EDIT:
added wire stitches to the forehead laceration. I'll be dropping him off to the contest judging after lunch today.

Looks fantastic. Can't believe it's your first one. Amazing how much the little addition of the stitching ads. Really brings it to life.
