. .

Résumé :
It is not only Fuelstains' excellent structural understanding of mechanics that enable him to successfully deliver his imagination to the viewers, but also his perfect understanding of human anatomy... All these things created in his imagination are things that I have never seen, obviously . nonetheless, I feel as if they do exist in another universe. Hyun Jin Kim, CEO of Superani

Biographie:
Nikolay Georgiev is a digital and traditional artist, born and raised in the town of Plovdiv, in southern Bulgaria. From a young age, he clearly presented a strong interest in imaginative art, fantastical worlds, comics, animation, pop culture and so on. He would draw on walls, and blame it on ghosts when caught, watch Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Transformers cartoons on TV, look at superhero comics and play with action figures, all of which would leave a strong impression during childhood. Sources of inspiration expanded over time - games, Internet, movies, animated shows etc., which kept fuelling the desire to draw, imagine and express. Ultimately, Nikolay followed a path of classical art education, by enrolling and graduating from the local art high school of Tzanko Lavrenov in Plovdiv. He later enrolled and graduated from the National Art Academy in Sofia, Bulgaria. Nikolay's professional career got a brief start in the late stages of high school through drawing comic book pages for a local, but ultimately short-lived publisher, and got its official start at the beginning of university, where he found his first employment in the games industry. Concept art, games, and the artistic community surrounding them proved to be an amazing source of inspiration and motivation, leading to a deep dive into digital painting, concept design, and illustration. Later, these same artistic communities and fields of art rekindled Nikolay's passion for traditional drawing and sketching.This renewed interest in sketching, when combined with his passion for sci-fi and robots subsequently gave birth to Fuelstains. Meeting with the SuperAni team in 2018 and watching Kim Jung Gi draw served as a huge boost of motivation and inspiration to Nikolay. That event, and joining SuperAni in 2019, can be easily marked as the two events that led to the conception of this book.
