Final Sketch for Mallara
Pipit’s Mother
Elegant, But Poor
Put one hair joint in the centre and rotate it as much as possible.
Attach it to the body.
Same pattern as Pipit’s pants.
“Groselle’s cart and Mallara’s basket appear in the beginning of the game, when they’re talking on the bridge. We thought that kind of scene, showing normal (?) wives talking, gave the game a nice sense of everyday-life.”
