I’ve been dealing with some stuff, so I’ve been making fan art to tide me over.
I missed drawing ferals, it feels like I haven’t done it in years. 😊

Balto and Jenna plush set. ♥️ Some of my favorite plushes that have ever been made. I have a long history of finding Balto plushes (mostly the sitting Balto himself) that are in bad condition, refurbing them and letting them off to new homes. That said, this set is my own and I will never part with them. ALL FOUR of these dogs were given to me as gifts, from one friend who had doubles and just wanted them to have a loving home. Honored to own them.

So Saberspark's Balto video is finally out (please go watch it, it's fantastic), and once he got to talking about the shitty sequels he voiced the same anger I did about how the sequels left Balto homeless, basically broke him and Jenna up and made him a shitty, deadbeat father.
So here's Balto after being adopted by Rosie's family (yeah remember Rosie? Whoever made the shit sequels sure didn't) after witnessing the birth of his and Jenna's puppies.
I'm so glad the sequels weren't real and were just a bad dream I had.

Inconsistent proportions and sizes
That thing bothered me since childhood, and I couldn't understand, whether my eyes trick me or the size of the main characters changes for some reason through entire movie.
Let's make it clear, who is who. Balto is half-wolf, Jenna is a husky, Steele is a malamute. Let's compare them.
Jenna is the smallest in the trio. She is much smaller than Balto. Balto's croup reaches her forehead.
At the same time, Steele is a little bit taller than Jenna. He seems larger 'cause of his body structure and proportions.
So, logically and due to these facts, Steele has to be smaller than Balto. And we see this here. Balto's croup reaches Steele's chin.
And we can see this in storyboards too. Although, in the storyboards they have almost the same size, Balto is still taller than Steele.
I also like, how they are the only black-and-white here. The indication of them being both the lead dogs and hence rivals. Plus, black-and-white colors perfectly nail their nature — Balto is half-wolf and half-dog, the child of two worlds, misunderstood by humans and dogs, blind to his nobility. While Steele is seen as a hero by humans and dogs, but in reality he is a sadist, narcissist, liar and a murderer.
And what we see in the rest of the film? For some reason, the crew started to make Balto smaller and smaller near Steele. If here Balto and Steele have the same size (Balto still is little bit taller) and they are both bigger than Jenna...
Here we see this. What the heck?! Seriously, why is it so inconsistent? Why a regular malamute is larger than a wolf hybrid?! Yes, Steele is way older than Balto, but it is not excuse for such bloopers.
It's not even a camera angle!
For some reason they started to make Balto smaller even in storyboards.
And it's okay to have small bloopers or inconsistencies in rough storyboards. But not in the friggin final movie.
Again, Jenna is much smaller than Balto, while Steele is only a bit taller than Jenna, so logically he has to be smaller than Balto as well. Why nobody noticed these huge contradictions in proportions and sizes, I have no idea.

Day 13: Balto and Jenna.
In the end, Rosie’s family adopted Balto and he and Jenna had puppies, so glad that there no crappy sequels to butcher all that!

As it is right this minute, here’s my Balto collection. The bag, blanket, tapestry, towel, pin (not the button) and Steele plush are fan made, but everything else is authentic. I love my collection. Nothing is for sale or trade, no exceptions. But thanks for looking, y’all.
