@davidd I assume that as well, which was why I listed the dwarf as the first possibility, but I just thought that first choice of outfit for him (on the left of the second pair of sketches) was somewhat amusing. Giggle   (And then on the right, he — assuming it's the same character — appears to be wearing a giant ice cube, with either a tasselled lightning bolt or a snow-covered Christmas tree on his head, which is arguably even more bizarre and intriguing.)

Makes you wonder how many other secret Narnia adaptations are waiting to be discovered... 🤭

I have a theory that in the hypothetical Chuck Jones cartoon, the White Witch was going to zap minions who annoyed her with ice and that's what happened to the dwarf in that picture who looks like he's stuck in an ice block. LOL

@col-klink Could be! Maybe he thought freezing her opponents in blocks of ice would be a more logical thing for an eternal-winter-ice-queen villainess to do than turn them into stone, which, in a way, it is. (But then there's the problem of having her victims stay frozen even after the eternal winter is broken, as they need to for the plot to work with Aslan freeing the statues, and with her using her wand in the final battle until Edmund breaks it. Maybe she could do both ice and stone... Giggle )

What a lovely find! I'm a fan of traditional animation and so finds like this are very intriguing. The concepts in themselves are lovely little pieces of art. (Lucy perhaps looks too modern.) Chuck Jones was of course known especially for his comical Looney Tunes cartoons, but I'm sure quite capable of adapting to a more serious animation, as well. Whether his animation style of very exaggerated movements would ultimately have worked for a Narnia story, I'm sure there would still have been things to admire! 🙂

I like the Chuck Jones character designs for the Pevensies a lot better than the ones in the 1979 animated LWW but I think I like the 1979 design for Aslan better (relatively speaking anyway.)

Chuck Jones also did the animated The Grinch Who Stole Christmas TV special, so he was capable of more weighty material.
