Steampunk Pumpkins Tutorial

                  Posted by: manny

Looking for a steampunk Halloween goodness? Check out these steampunk pumpkins made by Deviant Artist Yamiguru. He takes a standard plastic pumpkin trick-or-treat bucket and gives them the special steampunk treatment. Very cool!

He posted a full tutorial on Instructables.com, so you can make your own!

Here is an affordable way to turn your Halloween Trick-or-Treat plastic pumpkin bucket into a Steampunk Pumpkin. All you need is a few things lying around your own home and a bit of imagination. You don’t have to use the same things I used, you are more than welcome to experiment. Hopefully this tutorial will inspire you to create your very own design.

1. Spray paint the outside of the plastic pumpkin bucket with the flat black spray paint. Let the paint completely dry. Important: Please use spray paint in a well ventilated area (outside is best). Tip: If you don’t like paint on your hands, I recommend wearing rubber gloves or Goo Gone. Goo Gone is how I get stubborn paint off my hands. Read the Full Tuturial

    Made one of these this week. It looks so much better than when it was just a purple plastic pumpkin. ;)
