When I was looking, I was talking to a girl from Dnepropetrovsk and she had a very heavy accent.  I never spoke Russian to her as Ahe was a translator.  And I hired an artist from there working on my comic who spoke with that same accent.  I am curious about regional accents from Russia and Ukraine.  Thank you.

I think you should be a little more specific as to what you wish to know.

Regional accents occur in ANY country and language: differences are phonetical (pronunciation of vowels and consonants) but also prosodic (lilt, speed, etc.)

There are several: "Moscow", Northen, Urals, Siberian, Southern (close to Ukrainian).

Doll:
Sandro, Dnepropetrovsk is Ukraine, so her accent is "Southern".
