Since 3D Collectables got both the popular vote AND the most weighted votes in the recent poll, I thought I'd do a poll letting everyone decide on a character to get their own set!
I was originally going to just do one set, but since the option was so popular, I'll be doing up to 4! That's right, 4 sets! These sets will be put into the game in different updates throughout the year. I'll detail how they get picked below.
I have a few options listed that I have the models for and were already on my list to do relatively soon. However, I will be including a write-in option.
The write-in option will work like this, you can either comment the name of the character you want, or if someone has written in the character you want, you can just comment +1 to them. If you don't want to post publicly, I totally understand. You can message me your write-in instead. I was going to do it based on likes, but I don't think I can see who likes other people's posts, so I wouldn't be able to count weights and wouldn't be able to make sure no one voted more than once. If you do the write-in, please vote for "Other". If you vote for something else and also comment, your vote wont count.
Blacklist -
Since there's a write-in option, and there's an absurd number of characters out there, I'm including a blacklist. These are either characters I already have sets for or are just things I can't put in the game.
Let's start with the big one -
No underage/loli - I don't think will be a problem, but I have to say that I will not do any underage or loli characters. Anyone who is borderline is included in this. Characters who say they're 18 but don't look like it, or are hundreds of years old and just happen to look like a 10 year old. Some specific examples include Gwen Tennyson, Marie Rose, and the vast majority of Genshin characters. If you have to ask if a character could be considered underage/loli, then assume they are. I need to make sure everything stays within Patreon's guidelines.
Nothing Grotesque - I mean stuff like Silent Hill nurses. Characters that are heavily disfigured.
Characters I've already done -
And now for characters I've already done/am currently working on. There will already be a set for these characters being put into the game.
Tracer
Mercy
Rouge the Bat
Black Cat
Miyako
Hentaicore's Goth Mom
Memz's Maddie
Fortnite Mary Jane
Harley Quinn
Yoruichi
Females Please - I don't think this will be a problem either, but I just wanted to mention it, just in case. Futa is fine, but no males.
Everything else should be okay.
Da Rules -
To keep things interesting, I'll be picking up to 4 winners in 4 different ways.
1) The normal way. The character with the most votes will get their set included.
2) Write-in. I'll pick the character from the write-ins that I like the most and they'll get a set. If there aren't any write-ins, then I wont do this set.
3) Wild card. I'll put every character with at least one vote into random generator and make a set for whichever one it picks. This includes all write-in characters.
4) Too many votes. If we can break the record for total number of votes in a poll (20 total votes), I will also make a set for second place.
Since there's a write-in option, I have to say that there's the possibility there wont be a model for them available. If this happens, unfortunately I'll have to move on to the next highest instead. This shouldn't happen, since basically everything is available in either DAZ or Blender, but I wanted to mention this just in case it happens.
If you do write-in, if you have a specific model in mind, please include the link! It will help a lot. At the very least, please specify which version if it's a character that's included in a lot of different games or has a lot of skins. If it's a character with a lot of different versions, and you don't specify which one, then I'll just pick my favorite from the models I can find.
For example, using a blacklisted character as an example, if you wrote in "Tracer" and didn't include a model or anything, I'd have no idea which one you meant. So I'd go with my custom goth model, since that's my favorite version of her. Even though you may have wanted her default or a specific skin.
Almost done, I swear. I just need to mention that I'll be deleting any write-ins that don't follow the rules. So no one wastes a vote on someone who isn't eligible.
Lastly, in the event of a tie, I have a system. First, if a paid supporter voted, the pick of the highest tier who voted will will. For example, if there's a tie between A and B, and a Waifu Early Access supporter voted for B, then B will win. If it somehow ends up being completely tied in terms of supporters as well, to keep things as fair as possible, I'll throw them into a random generator and let it pick.
Ugh, Let Me Vote -
In the interest of time, I took screenshots from the model pages when I could. When I couldn't do that, I just did a quick render to show off the model when I needed to. I'll mark when they're renders I made.
Without further ado, here are the options!
GB's Bayonetta (my render) -

Cass Hamada (my render) -

Goth Ivy Valentine (my render) -

Jessie (Pokemon) -

Hentaicore's Thicc Blackfire -

Gloria (DMC4)-

Menat -

Ifalna (my render and my custom model) -

I have so many more models, and many with goth edits already done, but I didn't want to include too many options or too many goth girls. With the write-in available, I tried not to include anything super popular in the default options either. I wanted to give some less used characters more of a chance. If you don't like any of the options, be sure to write-in with the character you'd like to see, you never know who will win!
