Furious Mask Pumpkin With Diamond and Wedge Cheeks

From pumpkin to porch

1. 1

   Prepare and thin

   Hollow from the back and thin the wall evenly to about 1.8 cm. A uniform thickness is critical for clean small cuts across the cheek and forehead areas. Check for any soft spots and avoid placing cuts there.

2. 2

   Transfer the complete design

   Print a full template and transfer every element with a poking tool: both eye windows with their vertical bar positions, six forehead wrinkle holes, two teardrop nostrils, all twelve mouth gap positions, and all twenty diamond and wedge positions. Measure every bridge and mark any under 14 mm in the eye windows or under 10 mm elsewhere for widening on the template.

3. 3

   Cut forehead wrinkles

   Remove the six wrinkle holes first while the forehead rind is still fully supported. Use a thin detail saw and short controlled strokes for each curved aperture.

4. 4

   Cut eye windows and vertical bars

   Cut each eye window as a series of straight-line segments, not a freehand curve, so the angular character stays sharp. Cut the outer frame of each window first, then remove the rind sections on either side of each vertical bar. The bars must remain intact and be at least 14 mm wide.

5. 5

   Cut nostrils and mouth

   Remove the teardrop nostrils with a detail blade. Then cut the twelve mouth gaps from the outer corners inward. The downturned arc of the mouth should be pre-scored lightly before removing any individual gap, so all gaps follow the same curve.

6. 6

   Cut diamonds and wedges, then light

   Finish with all twenty cheek diamonds and wedges. Use an awl to pierce the starting hole for each, then a detail blade to cut outward to the perimeter. Place a bright LED inside and confirm no bar or bridge fell below spec. The mask should glow with intense, organized fury.
