I was really excited when I saw the Turnip Head inspired Rarecrow from Howl's Moving Castle and I think it'd be awesome to see more of them inspired by other Studio Ghibli/Hayao Miyazaki creations. A reskin/replacement of the other Rarecrows (and maybe even the default plain one), the ability to craft new ones - whatever is possible - would be amazing! I wish I could do pixel art but I'm not good at that at all For those that aren't familiar with other works or could use some ideas, here's some: No Face from Spirited Away Totoro from My Neighbour Totoro Even the mini ones: Cat Bus from my Neighbour Totoro Princess Mononoke Princess Mononoke: Her mask: (could be a good replacement for this Rarecrow) Kodama: Forest Spirit: Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service The Robots from Laputa: Castle in the Sky Ponyo Drippy from Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch (animated sequences produced by Studio Ghibili) Teto from Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind Those were the ones that came to mind, but other fans might have some better/different ideas. Thank you to anyone that contributes or helps out with this! I've seen some amazing creations here so I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask and see if it was possible!
I'd give the spriting a shot,b ut I have no iddea how to retreive existing grafics fromt eh game, or put them back in :'D

Actually, I could easily do the packing-Repacking if you want, just send me a 16x32.png and I can edit it in into the png.
Alright, so I finally found out how to use XNB Node properly (thanks again Axelius!) and jsut replaced one of the rarecrows to see if it works and it does! So here's my first try with No Face <w< Now the question is, if someone's going to make an additional "mod" where they can add additional scarecrows or if I should go ahead and jsut replace the existing ones...?
For now edit the existing ones, adding new things is much more complicated, especially in a way integrated into the rest of the game.
Gotcha. Well, so for now I replaced it like this: Witch = No Face Snowman = Totoro Tikimask = Laputa Robot Dwarf = Cloaked Mononoke Flowerdance Scarecrow = Jiji (well he kinda looks like aregular cat already so it's a little generic xD) Things like the catbus would be a little difficult as scarecrows. The bus for example is too big to have the neccessary details like its body on such a small space :'D (if anything maybe the real bus int he valley should be the catbus hehe <w< ) Here's the xnb you need to replace in Stardew Valley > Content > Tilesheets: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2916508/Forum Grafiken/Stardew Valley Forum/HayaoMiasakiScarecrows/Craftables.xnb
Those are absolutely fantastic! So much better than I even imagined!! Thank you so much for doing this And oh my god, replacing the bus with the Cat Bus... that's genius! Just checked them out, they look sooo good! I totally regret not getting the Snowman one when I could now. I need some Totoro on my farm!
wow! these are amazing.. can you maybe make a thread for them in the misc subforum, so they don't dissppear so quick? would be cool! http://community.playstarbound.com/forums/sdv-mods-misc/
This might be a long shot, but would anyone happen to still have the file for these? It would be very much appreciated
Would you be interested in me making a Json assets version of these scarecrows, so that you could add them into teh game without replacing existing scarecrows, either by buying them from a vendor, or making them yourself after buying the recipes? I think I would need permisison from the original artist to release it?
