Avinon the Siblings

A series of sketches and concept works I did last fall for a book illustration project. That was fun all along.

Gobah attack

Another illustration for my book of the planet Yelannah. This one is the first encounter between Slava and an alien carnivore.

Playful pet

Strangled

Another daily sketch.

A crash

An emergency landing of a heavily damaged vessel. Just another daily sketch. I am not sure if it is OK to call those sketches "daily" since I do not know whether I will be able to post them daily. But anyways, so far so good.

Hands

Drawing analytically - i.e. without the model. That is very difficult for me. But people say it helps evolve artistically. We'll see.

The choker

A vegeto-mutant transforming a girl to one of his own kind.

Organic haircut

A cutie with a peculiar mutation.

Resistance

A lady choked by a carnivorous plant. Nah, she did not mean to give up. Ever.

Vine

Another daily sketch on organic themes. I hope I can do more of these. I really enjoy drawing natural stuff.

Nahe'la Eleathe

One of the main female characters of my upcoming illustrated novel.

Nahe'la

The Keeper of the In-la Symbiosis. This one is an illustration to my book. The plot is not directly in the book, but rather an organic-themed fantasy. 

Jahor hunting

An omnivorous worm-like creature. The coils of his body roll around the middle axis unlike muscles of any terrain creature. This motion propells the body in any direction at a formidabble speed. Hunting jahor is a bi-monthly ritual and vital need of the Freemen of the Plains - a small tribe of Yelannah.

Teanea fighters

The newly started project I am currently doing along with many work tasks. It is named "Yelannah" and the story is about a remote planet, where people live in a perfect harmony with nature. Nature provides them with food, clothing and even weaponry. The story is also by my and I finished it in 2012. Right now I am almost done with English translation and start to draw the concepts and illustrations to it. Hopefully I have enough time to work on it. These particular concepts show the use of teanea - an organic telescopic liana with razor-sharp hinges, which tear flesh when contracted. Teanea uses muscle-like organic fibers that let it weave around any surface in no time. I have a more detailed desription of it in the book.

Концепты из недавнего проекта, сценарий к которому я закончил еще в 2012-м, а иллюстрировать начал только сейчас. История о далекой планете, где люди живут в совершенной гармонии с природой, которая снабжает их едой, одеждой и даже оружием. В данном случае - теанея - телескопическая лиана с режущими кромками складывающихся колен, которые способны разрывать плоть прикосновением. В книжке все будет расписано подробнее.
