Have you noticed in WQ, in the background of Nava;s pack of wolves, a lot of them have Balto's design but with different colors?I noticed that a long time ago.

Two words: Lazy animators.

All the wolves in WQ basically looked the same. Same markings (Aleu's or Balto's) and same colour, for many. In fact, there's a scene with all the wolves on it, and there are so many that look the same it's not funny. There's a shot of it on the site, I'll post the URL in a min.

yeah it comes down just to lazy animators, it's easier to use the same design then make a unqiue one for every wolf.

That must mean Blaez must have a twin brother! :lol: I don't think the animators were really really lazy - remember they did have a limited budget. Some of the wolves have Aniu's design but they're just a different colour.

Yeah but they looks kind of cartoonish to me, they should make it like the wolves in Balto one.

One: Its an animated movie.

Two: The animators really stink at drawing

Three: In the animated movie, Balto is half wolf

And I think thats enough said for now.

I see a fan-fic coming about that...lol joking.

If Balto 2 had a bigger budget then probably more unique designs could have been designed but money is a big factor in the appearance of any animated movie.

Probly because most wolves in balto have balto's character design/ markings. It's common in Animated films. ;D

Perhaps that is because Balto's mother was more or less the white wolf god Aniu
