I really like the statue and pillar, but the brickwork on the bottom looks like Christmas wrapping paper.

Critical feed back is most welcome(seriously it is).   How would you suggest I fix it?

Very nice! I would think that clumping the snow into piles here and there would help with the 'snow city' look.  Right now it looks like it just got its first dusting.  The only other thing I would say is to do one of two things with the mini.  Either trim her base back or use green stuff to sculpt a round base for her.  It will make her look less like a mini.  But very nice so far!

You can also place her on top of a round slot less base.

I might trim the base... Green stuff would probably make her harder to remove... a key feature of this piece

Is the brickwork on the base flat or textured ?
If it's textured, I would darken the bricks and motar. They are very vibrant, almost too cheery, like a holiday decoration.
If it's paper, I would concentrate on making the snow more 3D, at or at least opaque.

The statue base didn't bother me, but the simplest way for you to obscure it is just to bury it in snow. A little bit of filler of some sort, paint it white, and cover it with your snow flock.

its textured and it was a holiday decoration but has been repainted.
