Poltergeister & Jaz have created and updated a free Stardew Valley Character Creator for anyone to use! There are two versions, a feminine version and a masc version, that lets you create your own custom Stardew Valley portrait!


To use the free character creator, go to Jazzybee's browser game. There are a ton of ways to customize your character including 41 different colors for your top, different choices for sleeves, and accessories like coats, scarves, witch hats, pirate hats, and flower crowns.


With the free Stardew Valley Character Creator, you can create your dream portrait by adding elf ears, horns, and other fantasy accessories! There are 39 different hat accessories including bows, beanies, and every kind of hat you can imagine.


It's clear that Poltergeister and Jazzbee have put a ton of love into this character creator. Poltergeister created the art while Jazzbee coded this short browser game.

This browser game works on every browser type, but the creators noted that Firefox has had some issues in the past.


The Jazzybee Stardew Valley Character Creator lets you customize your skin color, face shape, eyes, brows, nose, mouth, hair, bangs, facial markings, facial hair, shirt, sleeves, top like a scarf or overalls and special outfits. You can also outfit your custom character with two accessories and a hat!


With nearly 50 colors to customize every detail - including the shirt color, accent color, and accessories colors, you can create a completely unique portrait to use in game! This Stardew Valley Portrait Creator is completely free to use and features a second browser game for masculine character creations.


The creators also have a Discord where users can share their creations and ask questions!


Poltergeister is the same artist who created all the portraits for one of Stardew Valley's biggest mods - Stardew Valley Expanded. This mod adds entirely new characters to the base game that includes their own cut scenes and romance options.


This browser game was created to work with the Farmer Portraits mod, so you can swap out the in-game portrait with the custom portrait you created! With the Farmer portraits mod, you'll see the avatar you created in all dialogue scenes. By default, the mod uses a larger version of your in-game portrait, but you can swap in a custom character creation at any time.


I personally use my custom portrait as my Discord profile picture, and for other online platforms where I want to keep a little anonymity. Just be sure to give credit to the creators Poltergeister and Jazzybee for any use of the portraits outside of the game.

Version 1.6 of Stardew Valley finally released on the Nintendo Switch. Now both PC gamers and Nintendo Switch players can enjoy the new Meadowlands farm, new in-game events like the Calico Desert Festival, and even more later game content.


Personally, my favorite farm in Stardew Valley is the Enchanted Grove Farm by Morghoula. This farm map was inspired by the Enchanted Grove in Stardew Valley Expanded, and lets you create your farm farm nestled in a dense forest, surrounded by crystals and waterfalls.

The creator of the Enchanted Grove Farm also collaborated with BogWyytch to add seasonal forest backgrounds and customizeable mushroom trees! Combine your witchy custom Stardew Valley portrait with mods to create an entirely new Stardew Valley experience.
