the world’s best snowmen & snow art

by deputydog ⋅ 24 / 11 / 2007 ⋅ post a comment

maybe i was crap in this arena but when i could be bothered making a snowman the process was relatively simple and took a few hours at most. a couple of huge snowballs for the body, some coal for the eyes, carrot for the nose and then if i was feeling adventurous some accessories (hat, scarf, pipe, cucumber penis) to add some personality.

as the season of frostbite and soggy socks is upon us i present to you some examples of ’snow art’ that deserve a viewing. any photos from flickr link to the user’s page.

i’m gonna start with the easier designs and work my way up to the hardcore ’snow sculptures’…

bonus:

real or fake, one of the funniest photos i’ve seen for a while…

  5. Ya know, you can cut the time it takes to make a snowman by realizing it doesn’t have to be as big as a man. This helps especially if you have small children who are getting cold and tired. My best snowmen were two to three feet tall!

  10. Either the hockey one or the polar bear one are the most technically brilliant.They’ve got to be using special snow for this - regular snow probably wouldn’t work. Must say that I do like the Yoshi one even if it doesn’t really look like Yoshi.
