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.

Twenty freaking years? He better have that free pension.
I know it kind of touches on the topic in the dialog once he returns but it is sad how he pretty much feels like he never had a typical life, his oldest son was young but still remembers his dad before the war/deployment while his youngest son is practically a stranger to him. He and his wife, though loving each other, have clearly had a wedge driven between them due to his trauma/service and (possibly) marrying and settling down young. Jodi clearly doesn’t hate/dislike him but she doesn’t know him as the man he once was.
His own wife even laments that she feels she/Kent rushed things and she makes wistful comments about what could have been. It’s not said like “I wish I could divorce” but it feels very realistic for a family in real life. A war-torn veteran and his wife who doesn’t fully relate to the man she married while trying to rework the family dynamic on his return. The whole thing is a bit tragic in a subtle way.

The eyes in the second panel made me think AI for a second… but then I realized.

This style looks like typical AI style. So OP is this AI?

This must be off. Kent was around to sire Vincent. Then got captured. So he probably spent 5-6 years. Not twenty.

HE’S HOW OLD??? :O

The life in his face at age 18 and the slow loss of it as the years go on hurts

I love Kent, I really hope HC fleshes his character out more. I’d love to be able to help him and Jodi with their marriage problems, they both deserve happiness.

I can totally imagine him being this suave, ladies man of a jock in high school. Poor guy. And the way you drew his hair is fabulous, I love the lighting!

Did they made Vincent by mail?

Maaaan… I wanted to steal his boo.

I’ve a head canon Kent wasn’t a war veteran, insomuch as a member of a “homegrown” terrorist cell
Kent only emerges when he’s sure the heat has died down, and regularly sends you, the farmer Bombs and Mega Bombs to eliminate any remotely incriminating evidence
The war story is a convenient way to get excuse his absence, late nights and early mornings walking around town, etc

I hope I’m wrong but this really smacks of AI.
