- so today I am going to show you how to make the angry dude from the movie out of watermelon.

I know he's red so if you want to paint the watermelon red you can, but I like him green.

We also made an inside out cake and I'll link you to that one at the end and in the description

below.

First find a roundish watermelon that will stand up on its own, or cut a slice off the

base to make it stable. Find the middle of the watermelon and mark a small indent then

find half way between that indent and the top and make another mark.

From just above that point cut up on an angle going outwards and do the same on the other

side. When you make these cuts you want the cut through the green but not all the way

through the white, so gentle pressure enough to get through that first layer. Then use

the knife to peel off the green skin from that triangle just in the centre of his forehead.

Use your knife to draw a line about a cm below that one down to the middle. Then angle your

knife slightly and follow that same exact line just it, and because you are angling it

you are taking out a tiny slice of the green. Now find the middle line that we made before

and cut across and down to draw a squarish mouth shape just rounded on the corners. Then

take out the green from that section just like we did on the top.

If you use a really thin bladed knife here it is heaps easier.

Then draw in two eyes and they should be slightly narrowed towards the middle, they just kind

of fit into the shape of the space that you have there. Then take out the green from them

too. Now take a round piping tip and press it into the eye. You want to position these

close together so he's a bit cross eyed. Use a knife to take out the white so you can

see the red watermelon. Then using the piping tip cut a circle of green and put it in place

for the pupil.

Draw a line a down on each side for the edge of his top teeth. Then draw a line across

in a slight arch. Cut down the centre point then cut each of those sections in half again

slightly angling your line inwards so we have four teeth. Now we want them to be a bit uneven

so shorten a couple of the teeth are going up and down.

Do that again for the bottom teeth except this time we are going to have three teeth

on each side instead of two. So you want to cut it in half and then have two cuts on each

side. Then make them uneven again just like we did on the top ones.

Draw an arch up and around for the tongue. And now we want to chunk out the watermelon

that we dont want there. So push your knife in deeply to cut out little sections at a

time just pulling out the watermelon. As you cut you can cut a dip in the middle of the

tongue there. Once you've cut out the white what you'll need to swap to a spoon to scoop

out some more of the watermelon flesh to make it rounded like the inside of a mouth instead

of the jagged cuts you'll get with a knife. To make the teeth whiter just cut of another

thin layer of the watermelon skin so it gets rid of that green. Now you can cut the white off

the tongue and you can leave a little bit of white on end if you like. Then neaten up

the bottom teeth, take a thin layer off them to make them whiter and scoop out the water

melon from behind them.

Now for his fire hair. Take a pineapple. Cut off the top and the bottom. Place it on one

end and trim off the skin from all the way around the edge.

Put the pineapple on one side and now we want to get rid of all of these bits, because they

are not very nice to eat those. With your knife angled inwards cut under them, then

turn the knife and cut under the other side so it takes like a triangular wedge out. Continue

to so that following the line and you'll see it just wraps around the pineapple in a spiral.

Once you're done it will look like this and you can cut slices off the pineapple off the

end. Cut each slice into 6 pieces and cut off the hard part from the middle. Some people

like to eat that. If you want to keep it on you can, I prefer to cut it off.

Take a skewer and thread on a strawberry followed by a couple of bits of pineapple, you can

make his hair as tall as you like by adding more pineapple. Then place the skewer into

his watermelon head. Keep adding more until you are happy with it and he's done. Ready
