HUNTR Weapon Emblem KPop Demon Hunters Pumpkin

From pumpkin to porch

1. 1

   Hollow and prep

   Cut a back or bottom opening and scoop the pumpkin cavity clean, leaving about 1 inch of wall. A thin front wall in the weapon zones makes the shapes glow brighter, but do not thin the wall deliberately as it weakens the structural sections between the three weapons. Dry the interior thoroughly.

2. 2

   Plan the weapon spacing

   Hold the template against the front face and check that all three weapon shapes fit within the face area with at least 1.5 cm of rind separating each weapon from the others and from the edges of the pumpkin. Mark the center point of each weapon lightly in pencil before transferring the full outline.

3. 3

   Transfer the outlines

   Perforate the outer boundary of each weapon shape with a stylus. The sword is a long thin rectangle with a pointed tip, the glaive has one curved edge, and the throwing blade is a broad angular teardrop. Transfer each shape carefully because clean outlines make for clean cuts.

4. 4

   Cut the sword channel

   Use a thin detail saw for the sword's long straight sides, cutting in smooth strokes from hilt to tip. A thin blade with fine teeth prevents the narrow channel from cracking as material is removed. Pop the sword shape free as one piece.

5. 5

   Cut the glaive and throwing blade

   Cut the curved glaive shape using short curved saw strokes that follow the blade edge. Remove in one or two pieces. For the short broad throwing blade, cut the angular outline in small segments and remove the piece cleanly. Confirm the rind between all three openings is still firmly attached after all three cuts.

6. 6

   Light and display

   Insert a bright white LED, which creates the cleanest silhouette contrast for the weapon shapes. Display in a dark room or on a dark porch so the three glowing weapons read as crisp lit shapes against the dark rind. Photograph from straight ahead so all three weapons appear at their true proportions.
