Queasy Emoji Face Pumpkin Spilling Painted Slime

Squeezed-shut eyes and a stream of painted green slime make this sick-emoji pumpkin the class clown of the porch. It needs only black paint plus two greens, and the drips are actually easier to paint messy than neat. Start with the X-shaped eyes and brows to set the expression, then let the slime run from the mouth in loose vertical strokes with a few splatter dots.

A little extra help

Our tips for carving a similar design

This is a no-carve, all-paint design, so the whole trick is contrast: bold black features against the orange skin, plus a runny green slime pouring from the mouth. Paint the squeezed-shut X eyes and slanted brows first to lock in the queasy expression, then let the slime drip down in loose vertical strokes. Because the drips look better a little sloppy, this is a forgiving project for first-timers and kids working alongside an adult.

From pumpkin to porch

Pick and prep the pumpkin
Choose a smooth, rounded pumpkin with a flat spot on the front for the face. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and let it dry fully so paint sticks evenly. A slightly ribbed pumpkin is fine, but a smoother face gives you cleaner brush lines. Set it on newspaper or a tray to catch stray paint.
Sketch the face lightly
Use a washable marker or a pencil to rough in two angled brows up high, two X-shaped eyes below them, and a wide frowning mouth in the lower center. Keep the mouth open at the bottom so the slime has somewhere to pour. Step back and check that both sides look balanced before you commit. Light lines are easy to paint over, so do not press hard.
Paint the black features
With black acrylic and a medium round brush, fill the brows first, then the two X eyes, using short confident strokes. Paint the thick curved mouth outline last so you can adjust its width. Let this layer dry before adding the slime so the greens do not smear into the black. Two thin coats look better than one thick one.
Add the green slime
Load a brush with your lighter green and pull loose vertical drips down from the open mouth, letting some run longer than others. While that is still wet, streak in a darker green along the edges and center for depth. Messy is good here, so do not worry about smooth lines. Flick a few small dots to the sides with the brush tip for splatter.
Seal and stage it
Once everything is fully dry, brush on a clear acrylic sealer so the paint survives dew and handling. Set the finished pumpkin where the slime faces out, like a porch step or table. Tuck a battery LED puck or fairy lights behind or beside it for a soft evening glow, since the skin is not cut. Snap your photo in daylight to show off the colors.

Gather your supplies

Check things off as you get ready.

Work on a stable surface, keep your free hand out of the cutting path, and have an adult handle sharp tools.

Three levels of light

Leave intact
The entire orange body stays untouched and dark, since nothing is cut into it.
Peel & shade
For a subtle glow you could lightly scrape a thin ring of skin around the mouth before painting the slime edges.
Cut through
If you want real light, an adult can cut out only the open bottom of the mouth so an LED shines through behind the slime.

Learn the carving basics

Before you start cutting

This is a concept image, so how would I actually make one?

No real pumpkin was carved for the picture, so treat it as inspiration for a painted design. Use a real pumpkin, sketch the face, and paint the features and slime with acrylics. The whole look is achievable with paint and no blades.

Can I light it up if it is all paint?

Yes, but since the skin is not cut, light has to come from outside or from one small optional opening. Set a battery LED nearby or behind the pumpkin for an evening glow. If you want light through the slime, have an adult cut just the open mouth.

How do I keep the slime drips from looking flat?

Layer a lighter green base first, then streak a darker green along the edges and down the center while the base is still slightly wet so they blend. Vary the length of each drip and add a few splatter dots to the sides. A little unevenness reads as gooey and realistic.
