Introducing... Cassie Jackson's stardew portrait! Like before, I used this for the base!

This one was a doozy! I couldn't find any of Cassie's main features on the portrait maker (her downturned eyes, wider nose, and longer 4b-ish hair), so I did it myself! I do appreciate there being some different hair textures available, since they made a great reference for the texture and shading!

While it was a challenge, I genuinely enjoyed doing this, partly because I love Cassie as a character, and partly because her design is so different than what I used to draw.

I used to not be good at drawing different features, I really wanted to change that and be more inclusive with my art. With Cassie, I wanted to push myself both with drawing different features and writing a different kind of character! (I don't have many transfem characters, and I need to fix that. Cassie here is mtf, and she hasn't had any hormones or surgeries. I want to be able to properly write the experiences of a transwoman).

So, ramble aside, I am incredibly proud of this portrait!

I have a cross stitch portrait of Shane sitting on my desk, so I'm constantly looking at my husband :3

I love my depressed chicken man sm

Also heres the shitty lil pattern I made in case anyone wants it :)

btw, if you see resources online that could potentially save your life or a friend's life in the future, i.e. info on access to potentially life-saving care for vulnerable groups- SCREENSHOT, print the webpage if you can or back up the file, keep it somewhere safe. slapping a "#saving for future reference" tag on there isn't enough

tumblr staff can and likely WILL delete it.

websites can always be taken down.

i'm genuinely not trying to sound like a doomer, data is sooo easy to lose forever with no way to get back.

honestly it's good to get into the habit of saving and backing up almost ANYTHING you wouldn't want to lose on the internet, such as music/videos/art/tutorials, because data can easily be lost forever when you least expect it. but it's especially important at a time like this when people's rights and access to care are in question.

save everything. set up a system that works for you to make saving things easier so you're more likely to do it. flash drives are pretty cheap. veracrypt is a fairly reputable source for password protecting folders if you share a computer or a space with people you don't trust. be mindful of your surroundings and safety. do your own research into sources to make sure they are not coming from people with ill-intentions. if this feels out of your scope, seek out communities that can help you parse it out. the most important tool at our disposal is each other.

this is the only post i'll make like this but if you have any other suggestions or corrections you're more than welcome to add on.

Idk if I'll color it, but I kinda like how it turned out

I made it in procreate, and used my own custom font (it still needs work lol)

Fuck water, man titties are the real source of life
