Re: Fan art
It took about 4 hours, but it would have taken much less time if I'd had anything other than a kitchen knife and a chopstick to do it with. XD
And thank you both. Happy halloween to you too! 
Here's a better photo of the pumpkin

Did you use a pattern/matrix or are you free-carving?

I used a pattern, though I drew it onto the pumpkin free-hand, not using it at a stencil. I'm definitely not at the stage of being able to carve it free-hand yet.
And thank you! So glad people like it

Wow, Luna, what a piece of art! Can you preserve it somehow?

Sadly, not really. I can make it last for a week if I soak it in bleach, but I'm not sure that's worth it. I'm just going to take more photos, and then I'll do another different one next year!

Re: Fan art
Wow, that's really amazing! Put it in front of your house and masses of fans will visit you! 
Too sad that it's impossible to preserve. Maybe a family tin of hairspray?
