About
Hi, I’m Alina Kurbatova, a graphic designer and 2D illustrator with 2 years of professional experience creating backgrounds and environments for animated projects. I enjoy transforming storyboards, briefs, visual references, and creative direction into polished artwork-keeping composition, perspective, atmosphere, and overall visual consistency strong from start to finish.
I’m experienced working as part of a creative team, incorporating feedback carefully, and delivering complete assets on production deadlines. Beyond 2D illustration and background design, I also use 3D tools to support concept development, and I’m comfortable collaborating closely with artists and clients to turn ideas into finished visuals.

This project was different from the attention. The backgrounds were more picturesque and lacked visuals. Although the initial demo considered using line art. It primarily revolved around a little boy who fancies himself a wizard and sets off on an adventure to find a dragon egg. animator illustrator

Mr. Beast 10 days in a coffin challenge animation I was given two characters and a brief description of their environment.

This included a color palette and brief explanations on how to achieve the desired effect. illustrator animator

This particular creature was designed for an already developed alien setting on a luminescent planet. The planet project was created by me and my mother, who intended to design flora and fauna for an alien world in 3D. Over time, small creatures were added to the ecosystem. The main task was to design a large predator that could naturally fit into this world and hunt those creatures. By analyzing the surrounding fauna and the animals it was supposed to prey on, a visual direction for the predator was developed. illustrator concept alien creature
