2D hand-painted illustrated animation, editorial illustration style, flat painterly shading with subtle gradients, heavy textured paper grain with fine fibers and faint scratches, muted desaturated vintage palette (warm ochre, olive green, dusty brown, faded brick red, muted teal accents), strong single-source cinematic lighting, deep soft shadows, chiaroscuro, clean confident linework, slightly stylized angular features, early 20th century period, aged film grain, 16:9 cinematic. Nikola Tesla: a tall, lean, gaunt man with a sharp angular face, high forehead, neatly slicked dark hair parted in the middle, a trim dark mustache, and piercing pale eyes, dressed in a formal high-collared dark suit with a cravat, carrying himself with elegant, intense posture, stands silhouetted in a glowing laboratory crackling with electric arcs, his silhouette framed by blinding teal-white light.
