EDIT [09/25]: So I accidentally never put the cut off date in this post- I do see it written in the teaser preview but that's not even seen by everyone. So I'll give you guys another 48 hours. You have until midnight EST TUESDAY SEP. 27th and then I'm not accepting any further prompts from patrons. We currently have 16 submitted. LAST CALL!!
Hello Patrons! As always, I hope this message finds you each safe & healthy. Can you believe we're in September?! What a wild year this has been and it shows no signs of slowing down any time soon. With that said, I'm officially opening up the window to submit drawing prompts for my 4th annual HINKtober (INKtober) series!
Each day in October I'll be drawing either something you requested, or something of my own. A trend I've noticed over the past year is that participation from my patreon community in stuff like this has dropped substantially. It leaves me in a bit of a puzzled position... I am forever grateful for the financial support you all give me so please don't ever feel obligated to participate in stuff like this. However, according to the survey data I collected earlier this year- opportunities exactly like this were THE highest ranked perks I offer for joining. So people want to be asked for their unput, they just don't want to actually give it. 🙃 So as opposed to allowing the few that participate to have multiple prompts I will simply create my own list and fill in as needed. In an ideal situation, I'll have 31 unique prompts from 31 unique patrons... but we shall see!
Please use this thread to write down whatever you'd like to see me draw! Each patron can request ONE PROMPT. Please keep your prompts SFW, but otherwise it can be whatever / whomever you'd like to see. Real or fiction. People, objects, animals, pop culture, original characters, etc. I'll be livestreaming my process on Twitch.TV/MrHinkleDraws each day this year too! Please note that there will not be a consistent time because these are simply fit into my schedule when & where I can each day so make sure you're following me over there and have notifications turned on. The sketch / concept work will start digital but each piece will be transferred over onto a traditional 4" x 6" piece of cardstock and colored black & white / gray scaled.
As in previous years, I will allow patrons first right of refusal to purchase any of the pieces before offering them to the public on my shop & at events. If you choose to participate, and have your prompt drawn, you will have the ultimate first opportunity to purchase it before other patrons can claim yours. More details regarding that process will be shared once the month concludes. Most importantly, keep in mind that you are under NO OBLIGATION to purchase any of these pieces. So please don't let that affect your thought process on making requests. If you'd like some inspiration take a peak at all the artwork from years past in the gallery above! I can't wait to see what you guys request this year. 😎

As always, thank you for your time & continued support of my artwork! Your kind contributions are greatly appreciated. Got any questions? Just let me know and I'd be happy to answer them. Wishing you all well!
Sincerely,
Kevin
