Hey, seems that a) This mod is dead as far as updates go and b) a few people are having the same "brown box" issue when Elliott is asleep after marrying him. Well, I fixed that part, just replace the png in the assets/characters folder with this one and he should show up peacefully snoozing in your bed instead of a brown box that snores XD. I did not make any changes to the mod or his appearance or anything, I literally just fixed the PNG file to get rid of the brown box, but if the OP wants to take down this fix, that's fine. As long as they fix it themselves, idc, I was just tired of the brown box.
weird issue, whenever i load up the game it wont work it says the fromfile is trying to get something non existant (elliot sprite) even on content patcher
Heyo! If anyone is having issues with the 'CP New Handsome Elliott Portrait and Sprite' version, here's the fix!
It's because the sprite PNG's title is missing the second 't' which leads to the 'content' script not being able to find it. Simply go into the mod's file, then go into the 'assets' folder, and then into the 'Characters' folder and add the second 't' to the end of 'Elliot' to fix the error in Smapi. If you're having problems renaming it (mine kept reverting back for some reason), just copy and paste it somewhere outside the mod folder (I just put it on my desktop), rename it there and then drag it back into the 'Characters' folder and delete the original png. Lastly, if you're using Vortex, purge your mods and then deploy them again (two options towards the top of the window above your mod list) and make sure you select to 'save changes' if Vortex asks about the change to the mod otherwise it will revert it. And then you should be good to go!
This is also to help draw attention to the typo for the mod creator since it's easy to miss something small like this. The CP Vintage version doesn't have this typo and works perfectly fine btw :)
I also want to say that I love how you represented Elliott ^-^ It's that perfect mix of the slightly rugged/down-to-earth look but also the handsome/pretty/artsy image that his dialogue and personality show. I've never really liked the vanilla portrait of him (the side pose that they had him doing just looked weird and he also looked a lot older then I think he was supposed to be) and I've also seen a few other re-done portaits but none of them feel as accurate as this one. I've actually sacrificed the seasonal outfit change for specifically his portrait from one of the seasonal outfit mods I use through a bit of personal tweaking. Defintely worth his portait and his sprite not matching up outfit wise if only to have his face look like him. So big kudos to you, mod creator! You're the only mod creator I've seen so far that's done our poetic writer justice.
P.S. I also have both your dialogue expansions for him and they are brilliant. As a writer and poet myself, I am such a sap for the romantic poetics. <3
Hm... I feel this needs an update. A few new sprites and some portraits for him have been added since 2018 and it is causing some issues as some folks have said below. I would be happy to help with this, or do it for you!
For people asking about a Seasonal Outfit version, it already exists! Under the optional files for SVO, there's an alternative Elliot portraits download, it has three different versions and sabreene's is one of them! https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/2449?tab=files
Love this Elliot mod! However, I'm noticing the same problem as another Elliot mod I tried. I married Elliot and all is fine and good until he goes to bed. His sprite enters his spot on the right side of the bed and poof, his sprite becomes a brown box. It still has collision but I can't talk or interact with it anymore. Is Elliot missing his sleeping animation? What can I do?
Any chance you might make seasonal portraits for this mod? I love the front-view Elliott so much and I'd love to have a version to go with my other seasonal outfits from SVO and Diverse SDV.

@sabreene It would be really great! And I know that a lot of people would be delighted if you make seasonal portraits! :D
the SMAPI error says: "New Handsome Elliott because it's not a SMAPI mod (see https://smapi.io/xnb for info)"
