Step 1
Using a damp sponge and orange paint, apply a base coat over the whole face, leaving a clear area in the top corner of the forehead.
Step 2
With dark green paint and the brush, draw on the stem of the pumpkin in the clear area, adding wiggly lines as leaves.
Step 3
Now for the delicate part! Take the black paint, using a thin brush, and draw an outline around the orange base. Add in a few more lines to represent the grooves of the pumpkin on the cheeks and forehead, and you're done!
