No wonder St. Nick does not leave tracks. He just floats on the snow.
Anyone who steps on snow will sink some into it. Not the case with this Santa. Everything else looks spot-on.

That depends on how hard the crust it, I weigh 180 and not sunk in.

I covered about half of his boots in this composite, guess not enough for your interpratation.🤔

The only thing that doesn't look perfect to me is the feet on the snow, and that's pretty close.

Having grown up in Chicago, I have learned about how snow reacts to different weights and stances The observations have been augmented by art classes. Add to this the comparative anatomy class subject matter my pre-med friends roped me into helping them. I ended being able to distinguish stable stances from unstable ones. Physics was one of my favorite courses. There were three telltales that jumped out at me.
The more you do composites, the more you come to appreciate the nuances.
You have done very well.
