2023 Poll Results.
🕑 Added 2023-11-01 13:54:48 +0000 UTCOctober is over, let's see what patrons voted for.
1st place took Hermione comic
which will be drawn right after Norendber will be done. Maybe I'll even do it in time for Christmass, since it's not that complicated with only 1 character and low panel number, though no promise on that.
2nd place by a very small margin goes to the quartet of Gwens:
It will be done somewhere early 2024 alongside AT
---------
Now to a more difficult part:
3rd place with exactly three hundred votes goes to Titans girls:
probably if not for AT this one could been higher. Or lower, who knows?
4th place and 1 vote lower we have Freddy's comic (you know where to find it)
and 5th place with noticeable, but still very small gap - Spies, that manage to survive previous poll and show excellent results in current one.
And then we have huuuuuuuge chasm of 100+ votes to other sketches.
Which leaves me with a dilemma: either I take only top 2 for developing and leave other 3 for next poll, and all their excellent results will be in vain, but they can win properly in next poll. Or I put all 5 in "to do list" and they can wait for their turn for years, especially 4th and 5th places. All 3 of them are too complicated to be drawn for Norendber.
I need to think on this a little =)
p.s. all 5 of the winners is comicses or comics-like (except Titans, but you can easily write a speech bubble to Jinx). I think I can guess what content my audience prefers
--------------
Anyway, Norendber moving to it's faster phace, since I don't get distracted anymore with Nancy adventures and I know the final score of all options.
Sketches that didn't reach 70 votes are out, all that didn't reach 100 - are unlikely.
Let's see what are we cooking next...

Second of Many
Wow! Really happy that one of my two ideas was in the top two. It was incredible seeing it go head to head with the Hermoine comic to see which was on top at any point. Excited to see it completed - when I came up with the idea, I didn't expect it to be as popular as it was. Can't wait to see it completed On the other three, I'd recommend returning them as poll options. I really like all three pictures, and feel it would unfair to put them in the To Do list if that means they sit in there for years and never get completed. I'd rather they return to the poll and at least have a chance to win, than get stuck in that folder nothing ever happens. Until the current To Do folder is completed, I feel it is a little unfair to add new sketches to that folder - the Totally Spies sketch is proof that being in the poll two years in a row isn't a punishment and actually gives the sketch a good chance at future success. So I'd rather that sketch get a third opportunity in the poll (and the other sketches a second chance) than risk the To Do folder get longer and longer and those popular sketches never getting an opportunity to be finished. Getting a second chance at the poll is a better reward for their success than being excluded from the poll yet never completed. Though if you are thinking about what you said beneath Trevor's comment, that would be a good idea - they all go up to vote once the Gwen picture is done. Probably the best. THough if you do that, think it would be fair to let the other things in To Do be part of that mid year poll. And to let everything in that folder return to the poll next major vote

I think like half of my current patrons are here for AT so for suggesting to delay a comic you can be burned as a witch. And I don't want to draw even simplier then for Norendber, I need to grow, not regress)

My very biased opinion is to have the entire top 5 drawn as full renders. Maybe delay comics a bit to clear some of them out, or a different schedule where you do comic for a bit, render a full pic, then comics again. Don't know if you have any specific schedule you want to hold yourself to Second thought would be to find a different way of doing them, easier than norendber. Maybe just cleaning a little and coloring, or something like that
