I agree with everyone here; the AT gun surely enhances this diorama. Keep it. Well done on the scratch-built building as well!
Maybe swap to a Red Army helmet on Frosty?

What about moving the tank back and the snowman forward?
I agree with Mike here. The last option looks more natural and flows better. Perhaps add a small garden wall or embankment in front of the ATG to give it a bit of cover. Nothing crazy just enough to convey the idea. The Snowman is a great addition. Will there be kids "playing" war around the tiger? That would really tie the whole thing together.
From Evolution Miniatures, I'm sure you have seen these.....

I have those, as that is where the snowman came from. The tank is in action so I’m not sure kids would be anywhere close by. This is perplexing me, but I will figure it out!I agree with Mike here.

I'd rather see the AT gun. The snowman? eh...the knocked out AT gun tells us there's been action recently so how would a snowman survive the concussion of the gun firing and whatever took it out? And then who would have come along and built a snowman after action like this?
They don't look like the snowman building types.

No, no they don’t. Snowman be no more.They don't look like the snowman building types.
He adds a touch of whimsy that will be remembered.
Personally I've never been able to make a decent one. Maybe because we only get like an inch every 5 years around here?

Plenty of other winter projects to get a snowman!
