Description
  To decide whether it's "Good" or "Not good," we have a very simple rule: the composition must be true. We must describe what is, what we see, what we hear, what we do.
  For example, is is forbidden to write, "Grandmother is like a witch"; but we are allowed to write, "People call Grandmother the Witch."
  It is forbidden to write, "The Little Town is beautiful," because the Little Town may be beautiful to us and ugly to someone else.
  Similarly, if we write, "The orderly is nice," this isn't a truth, because the orderly may be capable of malicious acts that we know nothing about. So we would simply write, "The orderly has given us some blankets."
  We would write, "We eat a lot of walnuts," and not "We love walnuts," because the word "love" is not a reliable word, it lacks precision and objectivity. "To love walnuts" and "to love Mother" don't mean the same thing. The first expression designates a pleasant taste in the mouth, the second a feeling.
  Words that define feelings are very vague. It is better to avoid using them and stick to the description of objects, human beings, and oneself, that is to say, to the faithful description of facts.
             ---Agota Kristof's The Notebook, "Our Studies"


Finally done! Download for the full Wow That's HUEG Version. ;D

Characters from Mother 3 cast as Character's From Agota Kristof's books: The Notebook, The Proof, and the Third Lie:

-Lucas and Claus as...yeah.

-Hinawa as Mother

-Flint as Father (draped over him is the Orderly's blanket, and in the foreground in front of him are the two boards)

-Leder as The Insomniac

-Duster as Mathias ( thus I drew him young, though I couldn't manage a seven-year-old Duster as is Mathias's proper age at...a certain point )

-Tessie as Yasmine, her dress tie dissolving in to two of Mother's homeknit scarves (I'M SO SORRY)

-Abbey as Sarah (I'M SO SORRY x2)

-Kumatora as Harelip, holding Boney (I'M SO SORRY xOVER 9,000 PLEASE FORGIVE ME)



So yeah, this is likely to be the last non-SaB and non-=M1 Children's Book work I do for a while. I just really, really wanted to draw this X,D

Grandmother isn't in the picture because I associated her with Locria, and drawing old people - especially decidedly masculine old people that are dressed as women and may possibly have ridiculous hair and shark-toothed smiles, etc. - are not quite my forté.

But such is life. Or something like that. ^^

Thanks. : )

Though I'm not the first (at least, in regards to NB-inspired fanart, though I think I'm the first to have something with the tag "agota kristof" on dA that's fu8lly done like this): I believe I have something in my favorites that's NB-inspired M3 fanart...

but thanks. : )

This is true.

Though I can think of a few moments in The Proof that top on the most disturbing things I've ever seen list. And I read comics and watch all sorts of hellish disturbing anime.

but it's still a good read. : )

I always connected Tessie to Clara, but this interpretation is ... beyond wicked o_o

shiroandfubuki In reply to KaziRede [2010-04-12 03:46:57 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I see how that could work, too~

Tessie, in Mother 3, always struck me as the sort of character that would remind Lucas of his Mom and send him off in tears. : < they look somewhat similar as far as in-game sprites go, and she's really mothering to the twins in general, but especially when Flint goes crazy. so, thinking of that, either Yasmine or Clara could work.Since we all know that Notebook!Lucas just loves people that remind him of his mother~ ;D

thanks XD

Oh yay you finally finished it Symbolic picture is symbolic lol. I wonder how many Mother fans actually read Kristof's book? Hm...

Loling at how Lucas and Claus look half-awake XD I suppose their lives (in the game or in the book) aren't all that nice. That's conveyed perfectly here. Omg what's up with my hair though?

lolgoshdammit... HINAWA'S hair. Which looks nothing like mine, right? Right? XD Anyway, I love all the characters you chose to put in here, how you matched them up to the people in the books. Even with visual art we just have to inject some type of literature into it, don't we?

shiroandfubuki In reply to GalenaLarkin [2010-04-12 03:39:22 +0000 UTC]

Much symbolism~ ;D

Well, I know a decent amount have read it, and I know some people at least really want to...


And your hai-HINAWA's hair is just so fun to make ridiculous and awesome~~~

Yay X3 lol gosh I'm tempted to talk about Kuma and Boney but I suppose this isn't the place. Lulz

People should read that book at their own risk. Just like analyzing Mother 3... proceed with caution

Oh that Boney~ Maybe that's where the name comes from! *brutally murdered*

Yeah, I'm making sure I warn people about the books before they go off reading them X,D
