Hello everyone!
Let's go for another Patron Commission poll! Help me decide what will be made as Patron Commission.
The most voted model will be available in December 2024 for Patreon, Apoia.Se. January 2024 for Tribes. In case of a tie, the topmost miniature will win the tie. On December 25th all free Patreon subscribers will receive this miniature (delivered only once).
The poll is scheduled to end on the 20th of November.
The requests are listed by the order in which they were made, except that I will change the order of the platforms so that it's not unfair. The requests will be ordered like this: First, there will be the Open request post, Tribers, Paid Patron, and lastly Council. Why? The order is only used in case of a Tie, and in case of a Tie, I want the free requests to win because normally they don't have access to a request. And council members will go last because they have a slot in every poll.
The poll consists of requests from Tribes and Patreon subscribers. Like last time the voting will be an open post so that you can call your friends, family, or followers to vote. In the case of a Tie, it will be chosen by the order of the poll (meaning the top most will win).
If you wish to support me even further, help me by promoting this poll on your social media, so people can vote and help decide. If you are not subscribed, Consider subscribing to support my work.

Some requests were not filled in time, therefore they are considered invalid.
Further Clarifications:
1) I work alone, and even though I want to invite more people to work with me, with the current funds this is not possible.
2) Please remember that after this post is done, I can't take any more requests. After the poll is done Patreon Website does not allow me to change the poll items.
3) "Another sculptor has made this miniature". Well... I don't care! I will do it as long as it's not a copy of another miniature. The reason for this is because a patron requested it and if it was the most voted this means that people wish to see it sculpted.
4) "Was there a month that I sculpted something that I did not want to work on?" Yes. Examples: Magma Knight(I want the real deal!), Elven King(I wanted his newer clothes), and The Prophet, there were many more interesting options in the poll (at least in my mind). Patron Commission is all about what my patrons wish, not what I wish. I will express my will to work by voting (I'm also like you and have the same amount of votes)
5) In 3 years of Imagine Minis I have not even once failed to deliver this sculpture, it's always the first miniature that I work on every month.
6) I have no time or interest in making multiple accounts to make the poll go my way, SEE notes 1 and 4.
7) Taking part in the Patron Commission by making requests and voting is completely optional, I'm not forcing anyone to request or vote. Either way, every Patron subscribed will receive the miniature, regardless of who made the request.
8) I will no longer tolerate disrespect, even though is clear in my rules, I will quote here again. If you make a request and you are being disrespectful to me or the community, you will lose your slot.
9) Yes, I have messed up the request to poll before. I missed one Patron request while filling the poll items, as described in 2 I could not do much at that point. To fix this I added the same request in the following poll.
10) Take off your tin foil hat, Chill, and have fun. If you think the poll is being cheated, I can try to verify but, I'm constrained by the Platform I will do my best to help you but keep in mind note 1) and there is a limit to what I can do. I won't reveal people's e-mail addresses and names to you, don't insist.
Best regards,
Ivo
