Warded Lanterns

Last year, Zach and Phillip warded some unusual objects: pumpkins. As you can see, they made some amazing warded jack o’ lanterns. There is some great detail in these.

It’s a great idea; the jack o lanterns are supposed to help scare off evil things that will come in the night. Remind you of something?

I do wonder how difficult they would be to actually ward. I imagine the strange shape of them might cause some problems for the warder. So probably not a problem for Arlen but very difficult for everyone else.

The way  Phillip and Zach did it, was that Zach drew out the wards on the pumpkins, and then Phillip carved them out. Phillip said “It was hard to get the light to show though in parts of the ward because of how thick the pumpkin was. To solve this, I had to carve the insides  from around 2 inches to about 1/2 an inch. We took wards that were on Peter’s site.”

You can see here, that they not only drew just one ward, but many on each of the pumpkins. Obviously they’re covering all of their bases. You never know when it’ll snow on Halloween just to make things difficult, and then the snow demons appear and eat all the candy. Better to be safe than sorry.

So overall, two very talented guys who warded some very oddly shaped objects.

You can also view a gallery full of pictures of the lanterns here.
