In 2005, one of my favorite movies was getting a remake in Peter Jackson’s King Kong. I was so stoked for the movie and the game that for my 8th video game pumpkin, choosing the big gorilla was quite natural. It was also great that the game which came out for GameCube, PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Xbox 360 was actually quite good!

Check out the little video I made of my King Kong pumpkin.

Phew, that’s a wrap for 2005. It was one of the biggest pumpkins I worked on, I was really happy with the way King Kong turned out, had fun carving his name on the back, and got a little creative with the roof…trying to make it look a bit like Skull Island.
