Welcome to Svodiak

Svodiak, lifelong passion project

Svodiak started as a small map, a simple drawing I made when I was only 8 years old. Back then, I didn’t know I was creating the beginning of something that would end up shaping my life. It was a place where everything I loved came to life, and that little map, which once held only mountains and rivers, slowly grew into a continent, and eventually into an entire world.

That small map

Maps of the world of Svodiak

This project feels like a garden I tend with care. I plant ideas without always knowing if they’ll grow, yet stories and opportunities keep emerging and pushing me forward. Deep down, I see it as something more than a hobby. Svodiak has real potential, and I want it to become a place where people can get lost in its stories and maybe even feel part of it.

I’ve started sharing this world with others. I uploaded my first video to YouTube some time ago, but that’s just one way of bringing Svodiak to life. As I move forward, I want to explore different formats and platforms to tell its stories.

Everything I create carries my personal style. I aim for an experience that feels immersive, something that isn’t just watched, but felt. I like to keep a balance between narrative and lighter moments, creating something that can make you disconnect for a while and enjoy the journey.

For now, I’m building everything on my own, using photobashing and concept art to give it an authentic, almost tangible feel, like real documents from Svodiak. 

In the future, I want to expand this with new formats and explore the major events of its history.

So, as I always say, vbaicha!
