I have built a dog sled for Arctic. Here is how I made the dog-
Body is a 2x3 grey brick. Hind legs are a 2x1 white brick. Front legs are a
2x2 white inverted roof brick. Chest is another 2x1 white brick, in front of
the grey 2x3. They are joined at the top by a 2x2 grey plate. On either end
of the dog, there is a 2x1 grey plate with a centre stud. The head is a 1x2
grey plate with a 1x2 grey roof brick on top. The point is the dog's nose.
The tail is one of those nice curving slopes, which looks like the tail of a
sled dog. I hope you could follow all of that. The dog is five studs long,
and 2.3 studs at the shoulder. He is pulling a small sled with a barrel and an
antenna on it.
