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 + Kirill): same bold ink linework, flat gouache fills, lubok / icon flatness, ornament. Keep every character exactly on-model — same face, hair, proportions, costume, ornament. ATTACHMENT ORDER: the 1st image is the PREVIOUS FRAME — use it only for light and mood, never for who is in the shot. The 2nd sheet is IGOR: about twenty, SHORT light-brown SPIKY hair, clean-shaven, BLACK leather armor with red embroidery and a RED SASH, katana with a black wrapped grip. The 3rd sheet is THE DEVIL. The 4th sheet is KIRILL: about eighteen, round young face, heavy dark-brown fringe, OCHRE leather armor, DARK-RED scarf-hood. ONLY THREE CHARACTERS EXIST IN THIS FRAME: Igor, the Devil and Kirill. No one else. FRAMING: a tight three-quarter shot. The Devil is cropped AT THE WAIST by the bottom of the frame — his legs, hooves and feet are NOT in the picture at all. Only his torso, arms, cloak and horned skull are visible, filling the upper half. Igor and Kirill are seen from the waist up as well, on either side of him. 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: «Nothing Touches Him»: The Devil «The Unmaker of Worlds» twists in the middle of the frame, one clawed hand thrust out toward IGOR «Klinok» — short light-brown spiky hair, black leather armor and red sash, both arms whole — who stands on one side and PARRIES the claw with his katana held in both hands, flat ornamental sparks bursting where steel meets claw. On the opposite side, half hidden behind the demon's shoulder, KIRILL «Tvyordaya Ruka» in ochre armor and dark-red scarf-hood has driven his village sword two-handed into the demon's back, and the blade STOPS dead against the soot-black hide — no cut, no wound, only sparks and a flat ring of ornament at the point of impact, his arms jolted back, his face shocked. The demon ignores him completely and looks only at Igor. His other arm holds the heavy demon sabre raised high — broad, deeply curved black-iron blade with a molten ember vein, horned SPLIT CROSSGUARD hilt, NO round tsuba. Red sky, dark forest and carved stone columns behind. Mood: their best blows do nothing. NEGATIVE: no ornamental frame, no border, no margins, no 3D rendered depth, no photoreal skin, no gloss, no realistic render, no Latin text, no legs on the demon, no boots on the demon, no full body demon, no twisted anatomy, no broken pose, no extra arms, no long hair on Igor, no brown armor on Igor, no naginata, no glasses, no girl, no extra characters, no wound on the demon, no blade sinking into the demon, no broken katana, no missing arm, no katana in the demon's hand, no tsuba on the demon's sword.
