Hi everyone!
Finally put out that video I’ve been talking about, answering your questions as to why I use Photoshop and not a pixel art program to make my StardewValley mods.
In this video I’ll be going over my top5 reasons and a bit of how to. If you’d like to ad something to the discussion do please leave a comment, I’d love to hear how you’re doing things.
If you’re like me, you’ll be looking for some cartoons/anime to watch for Halloween! Weather it’s a favorite oldie or something new, I have a bit of everything. Classics, foreign or just really hard to find hidden gems, I have been making lists with everything, here for you to enjoy:
My pick for top 7 Halloween animations

6.Anastasia (1997)
7.Paprika (2006)

My top 5 Halloween animation series

2.W.I.T.C.H. (2004-2006)
It’s a frequent question I get asked “should I upgrade to Cintiq?”, and in this video I will tackle that idea and hope my review helps you out.
To have in mind:
Other companies offer screen in tablet: Huion, Propen, Microsoft, Apple etc.
Make sure upgrade means improvement of quality of work life.
So is it worth the extra money?
Pros
If you have poor eye hand coordination it can help.
If you couldn’t transition smoothly from traditional art to digital.
Cons
Costs a lot more. Both to buy and to fix if dropped.
Size matters. That’s extra costs.
Your hand is over the image.
Still needs a computer.
Conclusions?
If you are on a budget, adaptable or a beginner maybe just try it somewhere first. Then decide.
If you have anymore requests for videos please let me know in the comments.

Yaaaay…ok, it’s been a while. Sorry!
So big news! I just finished my almost 4 year long project: Niels Feynman‘s time traveling adventures, book 1 of 4. I so happy to have concluded that. I originally intended to be done in 2 years, but life had other plans!
Thank you everyone for joining me on this journey, for all your support and help, for everything! It meant a lot for us that you were there cheering us on, and of course the donations.
We’re very happy to have finished and we’re looking forward to future projects so stay tune as we’ll also be updating all our shops with new prints and merchandise.
Scripts for books 2-4 are almost done, I will start sketching book 2 soon. And production will begin once we raise some starting money. Until then we’ll be posting on Patreon concept art, character sheets and the rest.
The Ghibli town mod for Stardew Valley is progressing, we finally have a main map working, now we have to fill in the buildings, NPCs and events.
We still have a long way to go, but I can say we’re still on track. For more check out the video bellow:
And for future updates you can follow me on Discord and Twitch.
Mermay event is still on and if you wish to participate you can submit your illustrations to our Facebook group or on Discord.
And I’ll be streaming how I make my illustrations on TwitchTV so see you there!
Hi everyone!
Sorry for the late update but it’s been hard to find help with making this mod as I am just a graphic artists and any game related stuff has also a programming component.
After 5 brave souls attempted to make the mod and failed, scampering off once they saw they couldn’t tame the beast know as modding in Stardew Valley, one hero has risen.
So long story short, I have collaborated with Trent previously on the New fish mod and we wanted to ad new fishing areas for people, because +90 fish wasn’t enough for us and with so many fish the spawning areas weren’t spawning properly anymore. We had to create new homes for our fish.
I had previously worked on many other mods with people, each group had ambitions ideas about desert or forest expansions and of course my Ghibli town as well. But sadly the ever changing landscape of the codding in SDV was just to much for them and many projects died in pre-production.
Thus I decided to take things slow and greed with Trent that we should first do a small island before we try and do the Ghibli mod, or the Oriental Mod (Desert mod).
The island has a middle aged mermaid selling fish related items in her shop. She will be in a relationship with Willy and a friend of Linus. We plan to give her heart events and anything else we will need for all my grand plans for the Ghibli mod. This little island mod will be our guinea pig for the Ghibli Town mod.
Thank you to Eimie and everybody else who agreed to donate their textures to this mod as it has greatly decreased my work load. The full list of modders who have donated textures or from who I took inspiration in making my own version of their aesthetics see here.
For more updates you can join my Discord server and watch my Youtube videos. You can see there the NPCs and shops we plan to make.
Take care everyone and don’t forget to endorse and give kudos to all the awesome modders in the SDV community! Show them some love so they stay motivated (see if any need financial help as well). A lot of projects die because people think nobody cares or the crazy people harass them. Both I and Trent have met some weirdos that have thrown insults and bigoted slurs at us and we are not the only ones. It’s just that we are a bit older maybe, and have a better understanding of the toxicity in any community.
In any case SDV is one of the best communities out there and thank you to everyone who strives to keep it awesome and please continue to support the modders as they keep the community going with new content every month.
And of course thank you to Eric Barone for making the game, Chuckle fish for connecting us and we look forward to all the new content from everyone.
Hugz,

Hi everyone!
For those of you new to my work, I am a graphic artists and I make comics, games and tutorials and I’m also a big fan of Stardew Valley.
I wanted to do a vacation spot in the desert for when winter comes to Pelican town, but a lot of mods weren’t working and I wanted more space as well. So, while searching for other mods that may work I came across the desert expansion mod and it sadly seemed like it was abandoned.
I played with the idea in my head, of a desert expansion mod, for a while and people also kept telling me how they loved my farm and if, jokingly, I could be their gardener.
Therefor I started working on both mods, just the graphics, while still looking for code that worked and one lucky day I came across 13, a modder on the Chuckle fish forums, who was trying to maintain several abandoned mods that greatly expanded the SDV world and he was actually able to get in touch with Yama, the one who did the original desert expansion mod!
Click play to see the video about the two mods I’m working on.
So we are now working on a ridiculously big desert map and we have so many ideas, if we can get half done I’ll be super happy. When it’s done I will compile a list of who worked on the project and other things they did as well as who donated assets to us and helped us finish faster. I do recommend you go check my SDV mod list as well, there is great stuff there from very talented people.
And here is some concept art, now this will most surely change because of the following reasons:
– it didn’t fit/looked good
– the idea was scraped
– I didn’t get an answer regarding permission to use so we did something else
– it was a placeholder and never meant to be final, but only to get everyone on the same page
– we couldn’t get something to work
– we got a better idea etc.

Hi friends! So these are the artists who have confirmed they can stream in the #QuickDrawCollab this Wednesday, aside from myself.
We will be streaming at my usual schedule, 3 o’clock Mi. USA time, on these channels:
Youtube –> https://www.youtube.com/c/hisameartwork/live
TwitchTV –> https://www.twitch.tv/hisame_artwork
PicartoTV–> https://picarto.tv/HisameArtwork
Feel free to join us, chat will be enabled on all three channels. Streaming artist submission are now closed but you can always message me and join the Facebook group to see when the next event is held and submit for the next one.
For those of you that don’t know what a #QuickDrawCollab is, here is the summary of it:
It’s an event where a couple of artists get together to quickly draw what the audience asks them. It’s the illustrator’s version of improvised theater, and it can be quite fun if you knows the artists and want your fan-fiction brought to life. It’s a great way to get to know your favorite artists and meet new ones.
See you there!
