Zatobolsk village citizens made a full-size replica of the tank from 4 tons of snow and one bucket of green paint. Every evening during one month they went outside with spades, gathered snow, pressed it into the required form and poured water on it to stiffen the snow. Then they carved the pile in to the shape of the vehicle. According to the creators they wanted to participate in the thematic winter contest Tankovik-2013. The contest's requirement was to make a replica of an armored vehicle with enough space for at least one crew member inside. Two people could fit in the T-34 replica. Besides, the commander and driver entrances had hatches to close them with. However, the vehicle is fragile and only children could walk on top of the armored vehicle.
