There seems to be something on that picnic table in my "backyard"...

More images below cut. Will be slow to load.
Sorry, I went photo-crazy. |D




















Farewell, snow-Toukan.
May you be destroyed by nature, and not by some dumb kid with no life like the snow-Leowolf.

Oh, I like your sculpting. A lot. It takes real skill. The face is adorable. ({e} Ninja'd by Trigger.) : D

I wish there was snow where I live, because I'd be doing the exact same thing. Dx

This is brilliant... I really want to try.

If only there were still enough snow.

@Trigger: Thanks. I finished

@Trigger: Thanks. I finished up his face partway through making the legs to motivate myself to finish them. It worked. XD

@Dinamo: Snow is tricky to work with. You need to be firm but gentle, if that makes sense... Very different from the clay I used in ceramics class when I took it in university. But it's still fun.

@eyestrain: Thank you. =] I was glad I got to make another snow sculpture this winter. But we have too much snow. o_o;

*mails some snow to Dinamo and eyestrain* TAKE IT PLEASE. IT'S UP TO MY KNEES. */unintended rhyme*

Mhm. I am in ceramics class at my Junior High. Too bad our semester ended today.

We have to change our electives, which means I cant have ceramics anymore.

70 degrees sounds so wrong!

70 degrees sounds so wrong! o_o I'm too used to cold winters.

Exactly what I think!

Exactly what I think! California is so crazy.

Every now and then, I travel up to my grandparents house for winter and its actually like winter there. I love it, unlike here where its hot all the time!

@Dinamo: I don't really like being cold, but I love doing things with snow, so I can live with the cold if I can have snow.

@Bayleen: Thank you. =D

Wow, this is really neat (I almost said "cool" but then I realized that would be a bad pun X3; )! I like how your sculptures look like your drawings, except in 3D. :3
Toukan is a lot smaller than I thought, though. X3

XD Bad pun away. The title is a pun anyway. ("Toukan" means "frost".)
I accidentally made him smaller than he should be but couldn't fix it. Laughing out loud So this could be a younger version of him I guess.

It's understandable.

It's understandable. Reindeer are pretty big, anyway. I think a real one would break that table.

I'm sure it would've taken me

I'm sure it would've taken me more than 2 hours if I'd done full size too. Laughing out loud The table might be able to hold one, though. The "legs" are metal and they're bolted to the ground. XD;

I was thinking more of the wood part, and a real caribou.

@Laruna: He's somewhat hidden

@Laruna: He's somewhat hidden from view, and to get to him, you'd need to tromp through knee-deep snow (unless you could follow my tracks exactly), so he's a bit protected from harm. I can look out my window to check, too. Laughing out loud

@Paz: ...depends on the age of the caribou? 8D;

I'm already trying to ship my snow to the less snow-fortunate. And there's gonna be more on Tuesday. I DON'T NEED ANY MORE. D8
I'm sure there's still a layer under the snow that came from the day-after-Christmas blizzard.

That's amazing, lifelike!! He looks really comfy, too!

We can use the snow down here! It's feeling like Spring already.

I've had enough snow to last

I've had enough snow to last me 3, maybe 4 winters. |D I'LL MAIL YOU SOME TOO.

I wish I'd made snow-Toukan bigger. He's more the size of a white tail than an actual caribou. Laughing out loud And he can fall asleep almost anywhere. Eye

*feels weird for having 80degree weather

Toukan looks so comfy on that table, I thought it was an actual deer or something that fell asleep at first and was covered in snow xD
Your sculpting skills...I want 8p

XD It's not that realistic. I see stuff wrong I need to do better next time. (Snow isn't easy to get some details in.)
I took ceramics and advanced ceramics in university. 8D;
