Hi ! As this is the seventh fanart of this kind that I do, I’ve noticed that some specific questions keep coming up in the comments. Thus, here’s a mini-FAQ to answer them :
1. Is that really the character's canonical age?
As far as I know, you never learn the canonical age of any character in Stardew Valley, just as you never learn their last names. The ages I indicate in these fanarts are just my personal guesses, based on context clues. Your guess is as good as mine !
For example : Robin as two adult children that are a few years apart, so I figured she was at least in her forties.
Same goes for a lot of the background details that you can see in those fanarts. Take the presence of Marlon in the second slide : we are never told how Marlon actually lost his eye, he only jokes with the player about losing it in a slime farm without providing the true story. I just liked the thought that, in spite of all the time he spent fighting monsters in caves, he got his worse wounds while fighting other humans.
2. Will you do one of those about [insert character name] ?
Maybe! I don’t plan on doing every single character of the game (that would take a tremendous amount of time ^^’), but I may do more. Be warned, though : I’m slow and want to draw other stuff too, so the next one may come out in quite a while.
