      @Chris-Philpot yes the structure of the house is unique enough on its own I think a simpler chimney would complement it nicely

        Maybe something like this raises the stakes a bit?

          @Chris-Philpot I love how none of the yeti children are actually sledding down the roof in the moment; instead, you show the before and after in the same picture (the yetis just about to slide and the one already hanging from the cliff branch)!
          Just one thing I noticed: I don't think the "Yeti's" text should have an apostrophe in it. Other than that, looks like its coming along well!

            @Jonathan-Malski Thanks! Good job on the proofreading. Yeah, the before and/or after seems to be much stronger in this genre than trying to illustrate the action. Took me a few months to learn that lesson. Jon Klassen had a bit in an interview about how, as an animation storyboard artist, he had an instinct to imply all the action off-stage. That translated well into his picture book work as it's such a still medium. I've heard the point made several times in the critique arenas as well.

              This made me laugh out loud, I love these Yeti kids and how the has an igloo entryway, like he added on when he expanded his family. So cool!
