How to Draw a Pixel Pumpkin (with .psd)
I will try to give you the best measurements pixel by pixel that I can.
I will include my .psd because this was done in Photoshop Cs6.
NOTHING says Halloween then a Jack o' lantern with a screaming face.

The Outline and Inside

- If u do it by half it starts with one pixel instead of 2 as the picture but this is perfectly equal pumpkin So look at picture 3 for the pixel by pixel placement.
- the color code for the fill is B95E22
- use the fill bucket tool to fill the inside.
The Stem
- create a new layer
- Start with the outline using 5c341a color code
- Follow picture 1 for pixel by pixel measurements.
- then close off the bottom with 884f29 color code then fill it in with the same color
The Re-Size
Okay a bit of trickiness is about to occur.
- on both the stem and pumpkin layer you will need to make Duplicate layers then merge the to duplicate layers together
- then while holding CTRL key click the pumpkin layer with the stem layer that you just merged, it should select the whole thing,
- next while holding CTRL hit T that should bring a box around you pumpkin then go to where the menu area is you should see to boxes one with a "W:" and the other next to it " H:" with both having 100% in them change both to 400% and bam re-sized.
The Face
:D your almost done
okay use color code B95E22
and use the pixel by pixel from picture 1
if you did it by half then you can flip
