📋 About This Mod
mono's Portraits
I made this mod for fun and practice - my goal being to recreate all the villager portraits in my own style while trying to remain somewhat faithful to the original designs. I'd love to hear your feedback regarding the changes in looks or in case you think an expression doesn't match the scene!
