muikabochi 208 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Poor rach. What did you use for all his bits then? Link to post Share on other sites
DumbStick 13 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Actually what do Japanese usually use for eyes/nose/etc on snowmen? Link to post Share on other sites
SnowConnection 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Chacoal in traditional Japan. The circle cut face is for an eye, and the long side is for a mouse. Usually none is for a nose, cos Japanese noses are small. Recently, we do not see chacoal except Yakitori/Yakiniku restraunts. Kids seems to find & use other materials. The traditional Yukidaruma (Japanese snowman) went away from the streets. Link to post Share on other sites

Svetik 0 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 No, the are not, they look more English to me ..Russians rarely smoke cigars, and the leaves near carrot (don't know the name for it), I think it's traditional english(?) decoration? Link to post Share on other sites
