Cool, creative and intricate Pumpkin Carvings by Mark Ratliff

Since the late ’90s, Ratliff has carved increasingly complex and difficult designs that showcase cartoon characters, mythological creatures and rock stars. He has carved about 100 pumpkins, each taking about three to eight hours and the effort has paid off.
