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): same bold ink linework, flat gouache fills, lubok / icon flatness, ornament. Keep every character exactly on-model — same face, hair, proportions, costume, ornament. The FIRST attached image is the PREVIOUS FRAME. Match it: the same missing sword arm on the same side, the same torn empty sleeve, the same armor damage, the same broken katana still nailing the demon's hoof to the stone, the same pose on the ground. The LAST attached image is a FACE REFERENCE for his expression only — the faint dying smile and the slack, peaceful features, nothing else: not its hair, not its beard, not its costume, not its colors. 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: «The Blast»: The crystal goes off. Igor «Klinok» still LIES on his back among the stones, one arm only, that hand raised — and from the dark-crimson faceted spike in his fist bursts a vast FLAT ORNAMENTAL EXPLOSION: straight crimson and gold rays fanning out across the whole frame, folk sun-wheel and flame motifs, white-hot at the core, rising above him like an icon halo and swallowing the clearing. His bruised face is caught in the last instant with the faintest dying smile, eyes OPEN but dimmed and unfocused, head tipped back, features slack and at peace. Over him the Devil «The Unmaker of Worlds», still pinned by the broken katana through his hoof, is caught mid-howl and BREAKING APART — his horned goat-skulled silhouette coming to pieces as flat black decorative fragments blown outward, his sabre shattering with him. The carved stone columns around them crack and burst into flat shapes, the empty rune circle drowned in light. Crimson, gold and white-hot cream with soot-black fragments and one last cool blue sliver of night sky at the edge. Iconographic framing, the blast as a halo around the two of them. Mood: the end, chosen. NEGATIVE: no ornamental frame, no border, no margins, no 3D rendered depth, no photoreal skin, no gloss, no realistic render, no Latin text, no photographic fire, no volumetric smoke, no lens flare, no standing hero, no second arm, no restored arm, no crystal on a hilt, no whole katana, no people in the circle, no wide smile, no closed eyes, no triumphant expression, no beard on Igor, no long hair on Igor, no realistic gore.
