EB Xmas Raffle 2016 - Your ideal Snow entry thread

Recommended Posts

This is my entry.

Snow reminds how I played "Fetch" with our dog with snowballs.. Our dog ran after the snowballs...but wondered always where that snowball ended...

He and me had a great time.

My ideal time in the snow has always been sledding. Whenever it does actually snow here then we all hurry to the park or school to sled down the hills.

What do I think about regarding snow? Something from a movie most likely, I haven't seen snow for 20 odd years - and definitely not near this time of year. Since I don't have a lot of white available at the moment, this is as good as it gets:

But thanks for a raffle again!

Here`s my entry, as a Tolkien fan, this was a great theme to work with :classic:

Based on the scene from The Fellowship, the heroes are struggling on the snowy sides of Caradhras, as Saruman uses his magic to increase the snowstorm.  This eventually forces the Fellowship into the Mines of Moria with all the dire consequences.  

But the comical part of that sequence in the film is that while they are all struggling in the chesthigh (of head high for the hobbits and Gimli) packed snow, Legolas lightly darts on top of it, and that`s what I wanted to represent.

Hope you like it!

Snow makes you think about the Christmas period, with you in your cozy interior, surrounded by family, all gathered for a nice meal. It makes you long for those things when you're not that lucky too. Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Match Girl is one of my favorite fairy tales. It's one of the few fairy tales that truly touch me and one of the few that doesn't have a Hollywood ending in my head. It's so full of emotion it's hard to capture it with a build. But that shouldn't prevent you from thinking about the little match girl and everyone that can't have a cozy Christmas family party and wishing them love.

I always enjoy making snow sculptures.  Here's one Emmet made in the Bricksburg town square.

Thanks, CopMike, for all of the time you put into this to make it happen.

I always wake up in the winter and see the snow covered bushes outside my windows and enjoy looking at them, before actually having to get up and walk / ride to work through the cold.

Two questions, do I have to be a regular member, and not a new member? And what do you mean by two original lego pieces? Thanks!

I was wondering what to build until the idea of snow sculptures suddenly popped up. Snow sculpturing is after all a bit like LEGO building.

When it snows, I like to sit inside and watch a good movie. Like the 15th reboot of Spiderman:

(this was a great excuse for me to show off my custom Spidey)
