Hello there everyone,

I'm new here and I thought this would be a great place to share and promote my RedBubble store and campaign (called #ProjectBalto) that features many Balto tees! I have decided to open it for mainly two reasons. Everyone nowadays will sport a Disney tee for pure nostalgia. But I have never seen Balto or Balto-inspired tee's before, and I thought I would take a chance and be the first to offer them to avid fans such as yourselves! Secondly, these are being designed and sold for a good cause! I am a currently transitioning transgender man, and I thought the proceeds of all the sales I make would help fund a very important surgery that I need. This is a win-win for everyone!

So what is #ProjectBalto? It's is a small and humble project I have decided to launch with Balto as the symbol. In the movie, he was neither wolf, nor dog and struggled to fit into society and accept himself — a real-life struggle that I can understand being transgender. I will be designing a series of graphics based on the classic character for a variety of products, in order to help fund the next step in my transition.

Now, before you ask about copyright infringement, yes I have looked into it and am aware of it. There are tons and tons of "fanart" designs all over the internet that artists create. If you've ever been on RedBubble before, you know how much film-inspired designs there are available and especially Disney! All the designs that I create are 100% from scratch and original. There will be no uploaded images of screenshots or logos. We all know how annoying that is! I produce high quality graphic tees that an artist should be proud of sharing. But not only will I offer designs inspired by the classic animated film, I have some available inspired by the historical canine himself!

As of right now, I have several designs ready and available! There is going to be a total of 7 different designs to choose from! Two more designs will be coming soon! There will be something for everyone! Don't worry if t-shirts aren't your thing. RB offers a variety of other products you can buy such as throw pillows, phone cases, stickers, and tote bags as well! If you are interested, I highly suggest checking out and liking the Facebook page I have just opened up! It is there as a newsletter for exclusive content, updates, and maybe even special announcements such as giveaways! Here are some examples of what I have to offer! I look forward to hearing what you guys think!

Thanks, guys!

These are pretty cool shirts. I would buy one and wear it.

These are super awesome! I would love to own these.

Thanks guys! I appreciate that!

These are great! I'll definitely buy one once I have some money to spare- right now I'm pretty broke. Can't wait to see what else you have in store for this project!
