It's the first of May, vote here! (Patreon)

 25$ Patrons please read!: I am upping the number of votes $25 pledges get from 5 to 10, however, a maximum of 5 allowed on one character like before. So feel free to vote for 2 or three accordingly! I think this should help as a small bonus without throwing the system so out of whack or dominated by the tier, with the cap of 5.

Removing: $5 and up Patrons can suggest a new character to add, but no longer need to spend a vote to do so, just add it in a comment and I'll reply with yes or no!

Updates! Thank you guys for supporting me through April! I was rather upset that I didn't get quite as much done as I'd like. Being sick took the biggest chunk out of it I think.  But I did finish 'Cats Can Fetch', and am excited to move on to Predators! 

Thank you <3 I know I always say "thanks for your support", but I really mean it. I can barely remember life before this Patreon, and treat it with great care. Every one of you let me focus on creating the best stuff I can do. It's not perfect, and that humbles me that you all think my work is worth supporting so hard. You guys helped me secure taxes and square that away; last year I spent way too much to pay down my student loans and worried I didn't save enough. To be transparent with what I'm doing with your support: at the moment I'm splitting my earnings between student loan advance payments, saving for an emergency fund, and someday soon I hope, a modest car or something. 

Conventions: I'll be at BLFC in Reno next month, and  Anthrocon in Pittsburgh the next. If you plan on attending, come say hi! I'll just be doing books, dakis, prints, but maybe some small sketches too.

Voting for May's pinup!

=================

How voting works: 

I make a roster of characters to choose from for my primary artwork each month. Each level of pledge gets a different number of votes, and you guys pick what I end up doing! Rules are...

=================

Votes:

-The roster keeps it's vote count from month to month.

-1$ Patreons get one(1) vote to spend. 5$ get two(2), 10$ get three(3), 25$ get ten(10), but can only put a maximum of 5 on one given character.

-Multiple votes can be on one character, or split up between several, to a maximum of 3.

-You can vote after it ends, but it won't be added til after the winner is decided.

-Votes only count if your pledge processed that month. If your pledge is declined, I will put the votes "on hold", and add them later if the pledge goes through. Likewise, If the pledge doesn't go through, the votes aren't counted. I check all votes for number and pledge accuracy.

-If your pledge is worth more votes than you use, say a 10$ tier patron casting only 1 vote, I will automatically assign all 3 votes to that one vote. If they vote "1 for character A and 1 for character B", then I will pick myself either A or B to receive the unassigned 3rd available vote.

Add/Remove Character Rules:

-Fandom and Other OCs will be removed when won.

-FK OCs will go on a cooldown and I'll decide when to put them back up.

Slots:

-$5 and up patrons can suggest new characters in the comments section. I can turn down a character suggestion, but please don't take it personally! I will only do this when I -really- can't see myself enjoying the subject or for some other reason I reserve the right to.

-'Artist's Choice' and 'FK OCs' slots won't follow strikes, and instead are added/removed as I deem desired or necessary. They could be other's OCs, fandom characters that haven't been suggested that I'd love to do... etc. A free-form nomination category. Can still be characters supporters suggest!

Strikes:

-If a character receives less than 3 people voting on them each month, they will get a strike.

-Three(3) strikes total removes them from the roster. They can be re-nominated, and if accepted, will then be put at the end of the current waitlist.

- If a character gets struck out on a month you voted for them, you're refunded said votes, and can re-cast for another character. The winner will have already been picked but at least the votes wouldn't feel 'wasted'.

-Passing 75 votes nulls the strike system for that character.
