March on! Vote for the primary pinup!

First of all, I can't help but feel like I need to apologize for not getting to several things in Feb: the Ask ARA reboot startup, the second Request Stream, second comic page, Ayn animation... still finishing up the Predators 1.1 page. Feb was a little short, but even so, unfortunately I lost a little bit of time here and there and it added up. These will be March goals, and will do 3-4 request streams (once a week like on Sunday) should be a good pace for March to make up for it.

You all support my work; sometimes for just a month to check it out, sometimes for years. A little, a lot...doesn't matter. It all adds up and you've helped me do really simple things like.. pay food, rent, pay off my little car, my massive student loans, build a savings... I just can't emphasize how much it all means, so I don't want it to seem like I take it for granted or am not working, hard not to feel that way when I see other artists doing 10+ full colour things a month or more, and I can't even keep basic goals at times. I try to make up for it, I do.. and it means a lot that most of you have stuck around through it all. Your willing support is the most thankful thing in my entire life these past years; it could grow or diminish, and I try to aim for "grow".

...Anyway! Time for furry porn!

The pinup updates with Mrrshan Empress from 'Masters of Orion', and the blue bird hunk musician Kass, from 'Zelda: Breath of the Wild'. I'm filling in any open slots with waitlist characters to help burn through said list before re-working how that works in a few months.

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

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.

-If you have multiple votes, you can spend them all on one character, or split up between several.

-You can still vote after it ends, I go back and count up these votes when it's time to put up the next.

-Votes only count if your pledge processed that month. I check all votes for number and pledge accuracy.


Slots:

-I will start a new method of proposing new characters, but for the moment the list is pretty full and closed!


Strikes+Removal:

-FK OCs will cycle on and off the roster over time.

-Characters receiving a disproportionately small number of votes or patrons will get a flag on their portrait. Once more, and they will be removed.

-If removed, I will do a consolation pinup of varying quality that reflects the number of votes and time up on the roster to compensate, so the votes aren't wasted! This will be secondary to the monthly pinup winner.


Completed Pinups:

-Krystal-Renamon-Isabelle-Amaterasu-Mink-Lola-Amelia-Ahri-Mik-ZeroSuitFox-Flora-Haku-M'Ress-Miko-Fran-AishaClanClan-Kathrin-Lilith Calah-Mrs.Brisby-
