Faces on mini pumpkins!

HELP!!!



We grew a bunch of the "wee willy" pumpkins with the intentions of painting on faces and selling.... so the pumpkins are ripening now.... and I can't paint!! [img]images/smiley_icons/roflmbo.gif[/img] [img]images/smiley_icons/roflmbo.gif[/img] [img]images/smiley_icons/roflmbo.gif[/img] does anyone knoe of a site with templates for this sort of thing? and, what kind of paint? can I use folk art paint? or should I get model paint? also, do I need to varnish it after I am done?



Thanks for any help!!

Slide, I can't paint a stroke either but what I do is use finer lined permanent markers. I'm not an artist but draw on them with pencil and go over and fill them in with the markers. Sure a lot easier than using paint for me. Good luck! [img]images/smiley_icons/smile.gif[/img]

I was also going to suggest the permanent markers too!! That's what I use and I don't think you need to finish them!!



Good luck Girl!!
