Freak Show is almost here!!

It is almost time for the fifth year of Freak Show!!
For those of you who don't know, Freak Show is a series of badges I do every year in September and October. They are dark carnival themed including circus acts, clowns, carousels, and more recently, playing cards.
Here are some examples from last year if you're curious:  https://trello.com/c/gDHcSWw0/43-freakshow-2018
This year, Freak show will start off as trading cards! Once all trading card slots are filled, then traditional freak show slots will open. This means that the traditional freak show slots will depend on how much time is left after the trading card slots fill up! If you all want more freaks, hope the slots fill up fast :)
That being said, Freak show will have 3 openings:

Wednesday August 21st: slots for the Freak Show: Playing Cards set will open. These are freak show commissions in the style of playing cards!! These cards are for trading and collecting and cannot be used as playable cards.

Sunday September 1st: Slots for Freak Show: Big top will open. Style of cards are TBD, however they will most likely follow the usual style of posters and big top acts.

Some time after all the trading card slots fill: Traditional Freak Show badges. Non trading card versions of freak show will be offered including carousel badges and perhaps some other types. Some styles will be exclusive to the trading card sets, and slot amount will depend on how quickly trading card slots fill up.

Here is the good news for Patrons: YOU GET FIRST PICK!!
Patron slots will open a few hours before the general public.
This coming Wednesday, slots will open for patrons at noon EST, and for everyone else at 5pm EST.
Only the common slots will open early for patrons.
Slots have traditionally gone VERY FAST
so your best chance at nabbing a slot will be to become a patron at any tier.
Common slots will start at $85 for the playing card set.

Patrons at the $3 level and up will receive WIP images of the example cards as I create them via the telegram channel!
Commissioned slots will be worked on via stream (not all but most) and Patrons at the $10+ tier may have a chance to join in the stream via voice chat on discord.
If you want to tune into the streams, here is my Twitch:  https://www.twitch.tv/vixndwnq

Thank you all so much for your continuing interest in Freak Show!
This is my fave time of year and I am always very exciting to bring your characters to life in the spookiest of ways c:
As usual, expect some other styles of freaky art in the form of icons, tshirts, and perhaps even pins!
Happy almost Halloween ;p
