Exploration
Luella
Based on the story, I drafted various styles of the main character who has temper tantrums.
After the author chose which version fits his vision the best, I designed dragon costumes, which is an important element for serving the story and spicing up Luella's personality.
Luella's Family
After nailing down the look of our main character, I researched and designed her family members regarding the author's brief:
it is a blended family with Mom (jewellery designer), stepdad (engineer) and two younger siblings living in the Mission District neighbourhood of San Francisco.
