Celebrating Pride Month! [CLOSED art requests]

This month is very important to many members of our community, including myself. It is a month dedicated to the history of the LGBT community and all that they fought for. We've been around for much longer than people think, and thanks to movements around the world, our society is more accepting than ever. The work, however, is still not done. Many places around the world still have not legalized gay marriage, and many people can face criminal consequences if they are found to be trans or homosexual. In order to raise awareness and celebrate what people like me have fought to achieve, I'm opening requests for small pride doodles*!

Do you have a character who is LGBT+, on the site or otherwise? Do you want them drawn? Fill out the form below. They can be a cat, human, furry, peacock, fish, elf, whatever! I only ask that they are canonically LGBT+. Requests will stay open throughout the month of June, at which point they will close. Happy pride, my friends!

Code:

[b]Name of character:[/b]
[b]Pronouns:[/b]
[b]What part of the LGBT community are they?:[/b]
[b]References:[/b] (as many as you need so that I know how they should be drawn!)
[b]Pose:[/b] (description or image, try to keep it pretty simple as these are small, free drawings)
[b]Pride Flag(s):[/b] (please insert a picture, especially if it is a little obscure, so I know exactly which one is needed)
[b]Where do you want the flag(s)?:[/b] (in their hand, as the background, next to them, etc)
[b]Where is this character from?:[/b] (WCC, FOTW, your fursona, you in real life, etc)

* Keep in mind that these are doodles and will not be very detailed. The two above images can be used as examples.

* Any flag will be accepted so long as it represents a sexuality or gender that is not straight or cisgender. If your character is straight or an ally, this probably isn't the thread for you. Please be mindful of the flag you pick, as there are some varieties of many flags that stand for harmful ideologies. I will be checking. I suggest you check as well. These are the only exclusions that will be made.

Aaaand, if you're still reading this, I'd like to ask you a favor this month. If this is something you're passionate about, don't forget about the 73 countries where it is completely illegal to be LGBT. Advocate for them, because they need it the most. That's all. Be proud. <3
