Medieval Red Hood

This was a team project that consisted of adapting one of the original Grim Brothers' tales of our choice, in this case Little Red Riding Hood, which we had to adapt, its characters and settings to a designated historical context, in our team's case it was Medieval Europe.

In my specific case, it was the redesign of Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother, adapting her to the designated historical context, as well as the redesign of the grandmother's house where the story's climax takes place.
