February '25 MAX Poll Suggestions!

It's the month of love! Or being really cynical about love if you're single.

Assuming you want to anyway.

Suggestions will be accepted through Tuesday February 11th at 3pm EST.
Poll will run from Tuesday February 11th until 4:30pm EST, Tuesday February 18th with the fan poll winner being the piece for the week of March 1st.

RULES BELOW-

• Everyone who would like to participate: make a suggestion for a single character in the comments.

• Repeat suggestions that did not win previous polls will be accepted and are encouraged.

• Characters who have participated in previous polls and were not picked will retain up to %50 of their overall votes to a maximum of +10. This percentage may be adjusted without notice.
  -Characters who lose a tied result on a poll will also receive a special +5 bonus votes in acknowledgement of their effort.
  -Bonus votes expire when a character wins a poll or receives an honorable mention.

• "Max" and "Plus" poll categories will have separate vote pools, limitations, and honorable mention chances, so you may nominate the same character for both if you choose.

• Characters who win a poll will not be accepted as suggestions again in the poll category they won for 6 months.

• There will be 15 slots on the final poll.

• Poll slots will be granted by raffle, weighted by tier:
  Characters suggested by $10 patrons will be entered 3x, $5 patrons 2x, and $3 Patrons 1x.

• All suggestions should be fictional female characters of an appropriate age. You may include a preferred size or Costume if you would like to be specific. Check the following post for some suggested terminology and example images- Fullbody General Size Chart

• Anime style characters are preferred but negotiable as I can always draw a western character in anime style if necessary.

• For characters who are harder to find on an image search, or that you would like to request in one of their alternate costumes, please include a link to a reference image.
  If a link to a useable reference cannot be provided by the time the poll opens your slot will be voided and given to the next Patron in line.

• I reserve the right to alter or ignore any suggestions that I don't like for any reason.
  
  Honorable Mentions:

• Some characters may eventually receive a portrait despite multiple losing poll positions as an "Honorable Mention."

• In order to avoid manipulation of the system, my criteria for granting an Honorable Mention varies and an Honorable Mention within any set time frame cannot be guaranteed.
