📋 About This Mod
Update. April. 7. 2025 - Unofficial Gigi's portrait Mod update

frThis is a link to the Unofficial update for this portrait mod. The mod has been approved by me and uses some secret sprites I made from my instagram, but I never finished to put into the mod myself.
!!WARNINGS!!
My apologies, but this mod is old and I have no time to update it so it is likely to not work. Especially since it was made before 1. 6 aka Stardew Valley's big big update.
!!Warnings-outdated!!
THIS MOD REQUIRES PORTRAITURE TO WORK. IT IS HI-RES!
This is a link to portraiture.
To see more of my artworks you can find me on tumblr or Instagram by the name Churiren.
About:I created this mod for personal and friend use originally so I would like to warn that there may be some innaccuracies in the character appearances.
I may or may not change them to be more accurate later. I dont plan on it soon though.
Within the zip file provided are two folders. Here is what they do!
Gigi (this folder holds the pictures of each character that replaces the ones in game)
Sprites (this folder holds an alternative sprite for Krobus)
Let me know in the comments if you have any issues instaling or questions. I am pretty busy atm so I may not get back to you in a while, but I'll do my best.
Notes:Included in my mod are portraits compatible with the korean wizard sprite.
This is a link to the Korean site for the alternative wizard sprite.
