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. Vertical storyboard frame, high emotional readability. Match the FLAT decorative folk-art look of the attached character sheets (Misha + Igor + Artyom + Kirill): same bold ink linework, flat gouache fills, lubok / icon flatness, ornament. Keep every character exactly on-model — same face, hair, proportions. ATTACHMENT ORDER: 1 — Misha «The Eye»: tall and thin, messy swept-up brown hair, LARGE CLEAR-FRAMED GLASSES. 2 — Igor «Klinok»: SHORT light-brown SPIKY hair, clean-shaven. 3 — Artyom «Serdtse»: shoulder-length dark-blond curtain hair, heavy straight brows. 4 — Kirill «Tvyordaya Ruka»: round young face, heavy dark-brown fringe. In this frame all four wear present-day clothes, NOT the armor from the sheets. FULL-BLEED: fill the entire frame edge to edge. NO ornamental border, NO frame, NO margins. TEXT: no text or lettering in the image. MISHA'S HANDS — the most important detail. Misha is in the upper RIGHT of the frame, facing the viewer, pulled up toward the portal back-first. BOTH of his hands are tight FISTS clutching the two shoulder straps of his backpack at his chest, elbows bent and pressed to his sides. Neither of his arms is raised or stretched out, and neither hand is open. His fists are small, compact and simple, with the knuckles toward the viewer. SCENE: «The Portal»: A modern courtyard at autumn dusk, seen from a low angle. Four young men in present-day clothes are pulled off their feet into a swirling portal of flat ornamental folk swirls, teal and gold, with golden folk birds and leaves inside it. Upper left: Artyom «Serdtse» in a black t-shirt, reaching toward the portal. Upper right: Misha «The Eye» in a dark grey hoodie and large clear-framed glasses, clutching his backpack straps as described above, mouth open in shock. Center, closest to us: Igor «Klinok» in a grey hoodie and dark jeans, twisting in the air, one arm flung out. Lower right: Kirill «Tvyordaya Ruka», the youngest, in a white shirt. Clothes and hair fly, faces caught mid-shock, autumn leaves, books and loose papers spin in the air. Dusk grey-blue and sodium-orange with the teal and gold portal. Mood: normal life ripped away in a heartbeat. NEGATIVE: no ornamental frame, no border, no margins, no 3D rendered depth, no photoreal skin, no gloss, no realistic render, no Latin text, no armor, no swords, no raised arm for Misha, no open hand for Misha, no outstretched hand for Misha, no extra hands, no extra fingers, no mirrored hand, no swapped thumb, no third arm.
