			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2009/10/26/zelda-link-and-triforce-pumpkins/" target="_blank">Fred Fisher</a> isn’t the only game-loving pumpkin carver out there that’s handy with an x-acto knife. Over on Deviant Art, user “ceemdee” posted a veritable cornucopia of video game art carved into pumpkins on her <a href="http://ceemdee.deviantart.com/gallery/#Pumpkin-Art" target="_blank">DA gallery</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="size-full wp-image-22031 aligncenter" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/earthworm_jim_pumpkin.jpg" alt="earthworm jim pumpkin" width="600" height="450" title="earthworm jim pumpkin photo" /></p>
<p>I kid you not when I say “cornucopia” – there are video game pumpkins a-plenty, and they range from the contemporary to the classic, including <em>Earthworm Jim</em>, <em>Shadow of the Colossus</em>, <em>Plants vs. Zombies</em>, and <em>Fallout’s</em> “Vault Boy.”</p>
<p>As with Fisher’s Zelda pumpkins, ceemdee’s pumpkin art rocks some serious intricacy and detail. When asked about her carving process, ceemdee told Kotaku in an email:</p>
<p>&#8220;Mainly I&#8217;ve used an x-acto knife and three tiny screwdrivers to do most of the carving. I used some wood carving tools to scrap out the bigger areas on a few of the pumpkins and a needle is used to trace the image. They were all carved in the last four weeks. It&#8217;s actually only four pumpkins (one a week) with three carvings on each. : )&#8221;</p>
