The theme of this month's THEMED Poll is Father/Daughter because I became a father earlier this month and I make the rules.
Be sure to check out the Discord to see pictures of all the poll options!
Remember, guys, you have to put THEMED in your request for me to count it. I tried my best.

October's release is done. (I'm test printing everything at the moment)
The Poll winners were:
MERCY was a tie between Slayer's Amelia and Dragon Pink's Pink. They're both pretty simple so I did both.
The Spooky THEMED winner was FFIX's Black Waltz, which I might have gone a bit too hard on.
The Standard Poll winners were FFVIII's Edea and DQIII's Fem Gadabout.

I missed a THEMED suggestion because they misspelled THEMED. I added their suggestion to the bottom of this poll, but it will be counted as part of the THEMED poll.

Alright, the Poll winners were.
MERCY - Leon Kennedy (Resident Evil 2) I went oldschool on this one 'cause there's already a really good free Leon from the remake floating around.
Themed - Eiko (Final Fantasy IX) I couldn't decide which pose to go for so I did two.
1st Place - Tied Final Fantasy Tactics and Fern (Frieren: Beyon...
Vote, people!
I encourage everyone to post pictures of their favorites on Discord to help people choose what to vote for.
I had to put a couple of options that I missed from the Themed Poll in this one.
Same as usual.
These are characters that fit into existing line-ups.

The Patron Poll winners were:
MERCY: Ayane (Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2). She was pretty fun. I've done a bunch of ninja ladies at this point, so I think I'm getting the hang of it.
1st Place: Original Character by Me. I created a character named Dawn. She's the one with the big sword.
2nd Place: FFT. I went with a male Squire for th...

YOU CAN VOTE FOR MORE THAN ONE OPTION.
Some people didn't seem to know that. I wanted to make it clear.
We're getting a bunch of MERCYs. I'm wondering if I should offer some kind of double MERCY commission discount at this point.
Be sure to vote in Part II!
Edit: I fixed an error in Wiegraf2's lower leg.
You can now download all of these manly men!
