2. A pan
3. 2.5Watt water pump

This design was perfect because i was thinking of something that will look good when wather goes between the teeth

I have separated the water flow between the mouth and the eyes of the pumpkin with a tap so if i want the water will come only from the mouth. To make it come out of the mouth i've desided to fill the inside until it reaches the level of the mouth.

It was time to test it with some water to make sure it works before adding paint. And it was working!!!

As it was workind as planned it was time for the paint. Red was the perfect choise for the LEDs because the pumpkin is supposed to be spooky. I needed 4 leds - 2 in the pumpkin and 2 in the water. They were going to be wet so when i've soldered the wires i've covered the them with silicon.

There it is. Now not only that is illuminated but it bleeds as well!!!
