Today I'm gonna show you how to make this really cool minion pumpkin
Start by taking a pumpkin try to get one that kind of resembles the shape of a minion rather than a squashed flat one
Then use a sharp knife to cut a hole at the back of the pumpkin like this
Scrape out all the insides with a spoon and
When it's cleaned out, it should look like this
Next draw on your minion design. I started with a single eye piece and the goggle straps. I
Gave him a smile then drew on the dungarees
And finally some strands of hair I
Decided to make the eye goggle a little bit larger
And this is going to be an eyelid with the pupil peering underneath
we're going to start by cutting out the hair and
The idea is we're going to leave the black lines in place and remove the pumpkin skin around them
If you're doing this pumpkin design. You do need to go careful. Take your time. It is quite intricate in places
Work your way all around both sides of the head then when you're done cut out the line for the gobbles and
Remove the pumpkin skin up to there
If you wipe off any ink at all whilst you're working on it you can just draw it back on
Carry on working your way all around the pumpkin
Removing all the pumpkin flesh
Don't forget to leave the skin on for the smile and
Do be careful not to cut yourself I
Drew the eye detail back in
Then cutter out and
Removed the skin for the eyelid
Then I cut out the shoulder straps for the dungarees
Through the pocket on a bit better and
Cut out the outline and
Finally I drew the G logo on the pocket
Carefully cut it out like this and
Added a couple of buttons on the dungaree straps. I
Cleaned up all the peelings and
tidied the minion up a little and
He is our finished pumpkin and he's looking really good
Next I took some yellow plasticine
Rolled it out and
shaped it into a couple of arms. I used a cocktail stick to help attach a couple of gloves
Then pinned it to the body with a couple mil cocktail sticks
For shoes I got these fluffy black pom-poms and
sat him on those
if you've got a couple of small child's shoes, you could use those and
There's our minion pumpkin complete
He looks really cool. Even before we light him up
He's got some really nice detail
And he's great fun to make
I used a small flashlight torch inside to light him up and I put back on the cover which I'd already removed the skin from
Dim the lights and
There's our glowing minion pumpkin pretty cool, huh?
It does look really impressive if you've got any minion fans in the house, they'll surely love him
I'm really pleased with how he's come out and
It would be great for a party
You could make a whole line of them. I
