October Character Poll and Nomination Changes (Patreon)

Go vote here! 

I'm changing up how I handle nominations and polls. There were a lot of complications last month with nominations--the process from the start has been a bit messy, and engagement was low. (Only wound up with 6 options and 100% of them were OCs--not that I'm against drawing OCs, but it'd make the poll feel a bit... stacked, and would leave people unhappy.)

I also don't want my own OCs to dominate polls. SO, a few things that I'll do differently:

• From here out, all poll options will be fanart
• There is no more nomination process; instead I choose the entrants myself, from things people suggest.
• Everyone can suggest characters in the comments of polls and "like" other peoples' suggestions. $10+ patrons get a bit extra consideration with this process.
• Polls are still 4 characters, and also include a question for themes and ideas

For the first month, I had to choose the characters myself, so I went with some more iconic options I've drawn in the past. The options are Stocking, Curly Brace, Etna, and Shantae! Next month will be based on suggestions!

The deadline to vote is October 8th!

Also, if there are characters you'd like to see for next month, mention them in the comments!
