STYLE: hand-painted 2D Slavic folk-art animation — Bilibin / lubok / Orthodox-icon sensibility. Bold decorative ink outlines with visible line-weight variation, flat matte gouache color fills (poster-flat, minimal gradients), ornamental folk pattern work, strong readable silhouettes. Flat painted, posterized light — NO photoreal 3D shading, NO gloss. Cinematic 16:9 storyboard frame, high emotional readability. Match the FLAT decorative folk-art look of the attached character sheets (Igor + The Devil + Artyom + Misha + Kirill + Lastochka): same bold ink linework, flat gouache fills, lubok / icon flatness, ornament. Keep every character exactly on-model — same face, hair, proportions, costume, ornament. FULL-BLEED: fill the entire frame edge to edge. NO ornamental border, NO frame, NO margins. TEXT: no text or lettering in the image. SCENE: «Time To Die»: The Devil «The Unmaker of Worlds» springs toward the rune circle — and Igor «Klinok», right sleeve torn and empty, lunges low and drives the broken katana hilt into the demon's leg with his LEFT hand, both his fist and the short jagged stump of blade sinking into it, stopping him mid-stride. He shouts up at the demon through bared teeth. Behind them, inside the teal rune circle, Artyom «Serdtse», Kirill «Tvyordaya Ruka», Misha «The Eye» and Lastochka «the Swallow» are dissolving into columns of light. Ember-red and soot-black with teal light. Low angle. Mood: the last blow of a dying man. NEGATIVE: no ornamental frame, no border, no margins, no 3D rendered depth, no photoreal skin, no gloss, no realistic render, no Latin text, no realistic gore, no exposed flesh or bone, no right arm, no right hand, no crystal, no glowing stone.
