Well as you can already tell, this is a WIP, the problem that I have right now is shading the head. I got inspired from Larwick's "Haunted Pumpking" I used some of the colors from it, just to get a base, and now the problem is the shading. Any tips?

	Well, first of all, I don't like how you just copied the figure from your avatar. Why not use this opportunity to get more creative with it? For shading the pumpkin you'll need to establish a few more tones of orange for it, a darker shadow shade (is that redundant?) and a highlight, and it might necessitate you playing with the tone of the eyes and mouth. I may do an edit if I have time?

	Cool, becasue poses with the body in my style are sorta hard for me yet, im not a pretty good person with anatomy, so yeah an edit, or a custom pose to help me would really be appriciated, and the eys and motuh are sorta a prob too since the sice of the head is sorta small, im thinking abotu starting the entire head over.
