Art style: Pixar-like 3D.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright, a lively 8–10-year-old Soviet boy named Alexei as a child, centered in a 1980s courtyard. He has a round friendly face, warm fair skin with a light summer tan, rosy cheeks, big bright hazel eyes and a wide gap-toothed grin. Messy light-brown hair with a cowlick and a slightly overgrown fringe. Slim, wiry energetic build. He wears a faded striped blue-and-white cotton t-shirt, dark-blue shorts scuffed at the hem, knee-high socks and worn white-and-blue rubber sneakers (Soviet "kedy"), one lace loose. A small graze on one knee. Pose: mid-turn glancing back over his shoulder, one arm raised waving, joyful and breathless. Behind him: old brick apartment block, benches, a bicycle, chalk hopscotch on asphalt, soft warm evening light.
