Life Size is a Norse-themed short story about a blossoming friendship between a Viking girl named Sonja and a massive giant who lives in the mountains. Sonja has lost her family and the giant helps to take her back to her village, all the while being tracked by other dangers on their journey. This project focuses on the development of the story’s visual style with a focus on the character designs, along with objects and environments that would be seen in the story. The book itself shows and explains the design process and the rules made to keep a consistent visual style. This project was heavily inspired by animated films such as Klaus, Tangled and How to Train your Dragon.
