Howdy folks! Excited to finally share Ā«FEELSĀ» with you Ā Itās a music video I directed together with Russia-based Honk Fu visual label for the legendary latvian band BrainStorm. I had a pleasure to gather and lead an insanely talented team of some of the best artists and animators from all over Russia and beyond.
Hyper grateful to Stas Bashkatov (CEO of HonkFu) and of course BrainStorm for this opportunity and trust with the project. Iād love to thank our entire crew for all their hard work and mental strength during the production in these crazy times.
Lotās of making-of will be highlighted over the coming weeks on both mine and HonkFu's instagram pages, so stay tuned and keep track of hashtag #honkfufeels to see works from our awesome team. Have a nice day and enjoy the show!

Ma boi Spikey Punch practicing his moves š„š„šµA character from my passion project Ā«Calamity KidĀ». I originally sketched this shot more than 2 years ago, and only now found time to clean and comp it. What can I say, animation takes time. Hyper thanks to @snegovski9623 for helping me out with the background.

Artist vs Instagram Vol. 1
Same applies to all the social media out there really. This has already been addressed a billion times, yet so many of us fall into this trap over and over! If youāre really desperate for some comparison, try looking up your old stuff, this is much likely to bring you comfort or energy boost!
By the way, in case you were wondering, my instagram is stillĀ https://www.instagram.com/realkereel/?hl=en

Yeah, sometimes a man just wants to make himself an edgy userpick, it happens. Also, #toonme but on both sides, yeyuuh!

Elf warrior corrupted by parasite for septemberās edition of #characterdesignchallenge. Stylized as a boss in the souls-like games. Making this piece actually taught me a lot. It doesnāt show yet but these days Iām trying to break everything about the way Iāve been working and rebuild it from the scratch. The learning never ends.Ā

Been a while since Iāve drawn for myself. Hereās a crooked fire keeper from a new mischief Iām trying to cook. Itās frigginā important to find time to work on your own stuff, even if itās just for a little bit. Keeps the fire burning

Further exploring that little Ā«Rita of SteelĀ» idea. The first image is obviously a nod to one of Gurren Lagannās awesome eyecacthers

Admiral Anchor is my new waifu. Can someone please add her as a DLC character in #SkullGirls or just make Power Punchers an actual thing! All in all, I think Craig of the Creek is my favorite animated show on CN right now, itās just super well written.

Lilā teaser! Sorry, itās in russian, but the text doesnāt make much sense right now anyways. The title is Ā«Rita of steelĀ», Iāve got no clue in which form this idea shall end up, but I wanted to give it a try. Weāll see!āØ The robot on title card is inspired by cover art for Shogo: Mobile Armor Division

Hereās a savage dinosaur-eating caveman, who has just ripped a T-Rex apart with his bare hands. Was heavily inspired by Necalli while sketching this guy.
I was late for this monthās character design challenge but still had this lingering urge to finish a piece the way I wanted (which never happens in the end) rather than squeezing in the deadline. Thereās already too much stress in this world from constantly trying to be on time, donāt wanna let it slip in my personal work.
