Okay, so I decided to prepare a list of the artists who are either involved directly with the project at HiveWire3D or who have indicated somewhere in this very long thread that they would be willing to support Dawn in their stores.

I am not a spokesperson for the creators, so  I apologize ahead of time if I get any details wrong or if I have left anyone off this list. Please correct me if I did. I just thought it might be helpful to see the support in a list as the thing that scares people off of new characters seems to be the fear of lack of support.

Also, since this thread is so long that it is easy to miss someone. I have gone through the thread 3 times combing for names to add to the list and found someone I had not seen the first time around, so it would be easy for someone just now entering the discussion to see just how well supported this character is. I should also mention that there is no order in this list and placement on the list in now way reflects level of expertise or level of support from the artist. I did however, try to put the HiveWire3D founational team at the top of the list.

I will try to update it in about ten pages with additions or corrections!
