In 2009 I was awarded PhD degree in Arts by VNIITE (Russian Scientific Research Institute of Technical Aesthetics). In 2017-2018 I worked as Art Director at Sunfox Games. In 2014-2017 I worked as Lead Artist at Sproing in Vienna, Austria. In 2013 I worked as Concept Artist at Wooga, Berlin, Germany. I’ve been working as a freelance illustrator for game and book publishing companies over the last couple of years. Since mid 2008 to 2010, I worked as a cover artist in computer game developing and publishing company Akella. In 2007-2008 I developed concept-art for Russian on-line games. From 2002 to 2007 I worked as a graphics designer. All my published works were created with Corel Painter or Adobe Photoshop and Wacom digital tablet. I am always open for exciting challenges and opportunities.

Here are few screenshots.
The programming in HeadlessD is done by me only by using Stencyl. Stencyl’s engine is written in Haxe and based on OpenFL, an open source project that mirrors the full Flash API in Haxe and provides all the hooks required to publish games to all the major platforms. Stencyl has an unique easy to understand interface which allows to user like me to build the code without deep knowledge of programming.
Stencyl has a great community which is always ready to help.
I wouldn’t manage to make my game without music! Kevin MacLeod is a great musician. He provides a lot of music for free on his website (incompetech.com)
