Inspired by the "Digital Art with Matlab" project at [GitHub - zappo2/digital-art-with-matlab](https://github.com/zappo2/digital-art-with-matlab), I wanted to check out if the Racket 3D plot library could plot pumpkins. Here is the result:

this is awesome @alexh :racket_heart:

I wonder if anyone else will have a go at using [Plot: Graph Plotting](https://docs.racket-lang.org/plot/index.html) to create more pumpkins, flowers, or the 3d 'hidden' images like those at [GitHub - zappo2/digital-art-with-matlab](https://github.com/zappo2/digital-art-with-matlab) ?

best regards,
