From a technical standpoint, Seven's effort is nothing compared to some of these fantastic snowmen. But his features knives. KNIVES.

The standard is insanely high this year. Might have to go back out an build a new one to improve my chances.

I don't really know, to be honest. I accidentally built him on a slight hill so that probably helped. I also had to hack away a fair chunk of his SnowFat at the back when the structural integrity started to give.
My plan it to leave it to freeze solid tonight, then paint the bastard tomorrow.

Yeah, I know. I was going to do a fuckoff massive 8-foot job, but honest to god there wasn't enough snow. And for that height, it'd have to be 6 feet wide. That's
quite a lot.

I predict this will be another controversial year for the Snowman Comp.
Congrats on the win, Starbreaker.

Considering Mocky is running this, it's already over. Unless someone makes a snowman of Optimus beating up Captain Falcon/Cesc Fabregas.

I know, that's what I meant when I was saying it will be another controversial year.
If I had enough snow then I would have built a Snow TARDIS, but it froze too quickly here.

Made this this evening with one of my staff... she is far more artistic than I am and deserves most of the credit.
