DUBLIN, Ohio — The knives are out and the pumpkins are getting gutted, carved in time for Saturday’s Halloween festivities.
But one woman’s a force to be reckoned with when it comes to her pumpkin painting.
Jeanette Paras stayed away from political pumpkins and instead focused on a galaxy far far away.
She made “Baby YodaKin," aka “The Child” from the “Star Wars” series “The Mandalorian,” WCMH reported.
It’s pumpkin time! Baby YodaKin, this year's #giantcelebritypumpkin moved from the studio to the porch today. This 451-pound beauty was grown by Scott Kulpa of Galena, OH and is nearly 10 feet from ear to ear. #paraspumpkins #babyyoda #lucasfilms #mandalorian #Disney pic.twitter.com/fouZl1eeVp

Paras chose Baby Yoda because the world needs peace after the coronavirus pandemic and never-ending bad news.
And while Baby Yoda may be small on the show, the pumpkin Paras chose is no small squash.
It weighs 451 pounds, WSYX reported. It is 40 inches in diameter and has two 39-inch ears to round out the project, WCMH reported.
You can see some of her past creations here.
If you want to try your hand at making your own Baby Yoda but on a smaller scale, Zombie Pumpkins has a pattern.
If you can’t get enough Baby Yoda, season two of “The Mandalorian” streams Friday on Disney+.
