It really depends on the shape.
If it has a nice circular shape and you have enough patience and tools... I'd go for the Death Star design!

If it's more square in shape, you might want to do a Great White Shark!

If the shape is short and squat, you can do anything from the traditional Jack-o-lantern face or try some fun new angles with incorporating the stem and using it as a nose!

Regardless of what you choose, I'm sure you'll have fun with a 58 pound pumpkin.
Happy Halloween!

There are so many ways! I'm answering with a few links to free stencils and ideas for you - not sure if you prefer to carve out chunks or just do the stencil carving. I really like the ones with scary faces but that's just me....especially the ones with seeds coming out everywhere like pumpkin vomit hehehe The Pumpkin Lady has insects, words, nature, you'll love the numbskull category ....over 200 free patterns

A 58 pound pumpkin is something which can make a large impression. You should utilize your pumpkin as a means by which you can express yourself and communicate some enthusiasm for the holidays. I found these links to be interesting:

If you google "pumpkin carving patterns" there are a couple sites that provide a print out diagram you can then overlay on the pumpkin for carving. This is one of the sites I found that is free

Just make sure pencil the outline first before you start carving!
