Chapter 89: Chen Zijiao's Crisis

After Shen Xin took the drawing, she sat on the single sofa on one side and read the line drawing one by one.

The drawing of the background is more complicated than that of the characters, and the requirements for the painter are also higher, which is especially prominent in the aspect of perspective.

The drawing of characters also pays attention to perspective. It is necessary to grasp the coordination of characters from different angles, but characters rarely use too complicated perspective, and the background is different. Due to the needs of the scene, complex pictures are inevitable. This is a test of the artist's ability.

Parallel perspective is relatively simple, and most painters can handle it, but this method also has a disadvantage, that is, the composition using parallel perspective is usually relatively monotonous.

A little more complicated is two-point perspective, which can be handled by ordinary painters.

The most difficult thing is the three-point perspective. Usually, the auxiliary circle is used to draw the picture. If the artist's three-dimensional sense is not strong, it is easy to make the background painting out of shape.

Some people with poor basic skills often want to avoid three-point perspective when drawing the background, but in this way, the picture will be unreal.

As a game producer, Ji Yinxuan also knows the importance of background, but considering funding issues, students like Yang Bo are mostly involved in the game drawing.

The line drafts they drew are uneven and have many minor flaws, which is why Ji Yinxuan wants Shen Xin to help review the line drafts.

Watching Shen Xin turn over the line draft page by page, Ji Yinxuan didn't dare to make a sound and could only look at Shen Xin silently.

After Xi Muhan came down from upstairs, just as he was about to speak, Ji Yinxuan immediately made a silent gesture, and Xi Muhan immediately stood obediently behind Shen Xin.

After about ten minutes, Shen Xin put down the manuscript.

"How is it?" Ji Yinxuan asked.

"Give me a copy of all these manuscripts later, and find me two red and blue pencils, as well as a ruler and a compass."

These drawings are just pencil line drafts, and there is room for revision without ink lines or coloring.

"Is it troublesome?" Ji Yinxuan didn't know much about painting, she could only see that there was a sense of incongruity in these pictures, but she didn't know whether it was complicated to modify these pictures.

"It's okay, it's not too troublesome, but there are a few pictures that are out of shape, and the rest are mostly due to deviations in the position of the third point."

Ji Yinxuan seemed to understand, knowing that this was not her field of expertise, so she could only listen to Shen Xin's opinion.

"Why don't we talk about these things tomorrow. You are too tired today, why don't you take a rest after eating?" Ji Yinxuan said, "I really shouldn't have called you from the sea of ​​clouds during Chinese New Year... I didn't expect that Line draft needs to be revised."

"It's nothing. I've wanted to come to Hongchuan for a long time. If I have the opportunity, I'll visit the magazines of "Comic Future" and "Manga Fly". After all, these two magazines are the pinnacle of Chinese comic magazines." Shen Xin said with a smile.

Although "Leap" is also one of the three major magazines, the magazine office of "Leap" is not in Hongchuan. Moreover, "Leap" is a semi-monthly magazine with color page comics, and Shen Xin's style does not match it well.

"It's quite lonely for two people to celebrate the New Year." Xi Muhan, who had been silent for a long time, also echoed.

"Lonely..." Ji Yinxuan murmured and repeated a few words. Looking back on the Spring Festivals in the past few years, most of them were spent alone. Sometimes Su Han would come over, but not too many times. Therefore, every New Year , she still felt lonely, "By the way, the movie "The Legend of the Dragon King" will be released on New Year's Day, do you want to watch it?"

""The Legend of the Dragon King"? Public screening?" Shen Xin was a little surprised. She didn't expect to catch up with the public screening of "The Legend of the Dragon King" when she came to Hongchuan this time.

"That's right, it's said that Mr. Wang Yunze personally took charge of character design and plot direction for this movie, so the quality should be guaranteed. If you want to watch it, I'll ask Xiao Luo to get in touch and make a small show." Xi Muhan said.

"It's not necessary. If you have time on New Year's Day,

I can just look around for myself. "

It's just watching a movie, there is no need to mobilize the crowd. Moreover, the atmosphere in the movie is the atmosphere, if it is too deserted, it is not good.

Today is the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month. From the first day of the new year, Shen Xin wanted to walk around Hongchuan to feel the two-dimensional elements of this city.

Speaking of movies, every New Year movie is the worst time for the movie market.

Although "The Legend of the Dragon King" has just won the "Best Long Comic Award of the Year", it is really hard to say what kind of results it can achieve on the big screen.

From Shen Xin's point of view, he certainly hoped that "The Legend of the Dragon King" would sell well, so that everyone's attention could be focused on the comics, which would drive the entire animation industry.

It's just that "The Legend of the Dragon King" is not facing other comics this time, but a blockbuster movie starring famous actors.

Ji Yinxuan returned to the bedroom with the notebook in her arms, and Shen Xin and Xi Muhan also returned to their respective rooms after dinner.

After taking a few breaths on the balcony, Shen Xin became much more energetic in an instant.

The night sky is full of stars, and the buildings under the night are also illuminated by lights, reflecting each other with the stars.

The cool breeze blows on Shen Xin's cheeks and body, making him feel——

"Ah Choo!"

Shen Xin sneezed and shivered from the cold.

Without heating and air conditioning, this ghostly weather is really a headache.

Back in the room, the temperature has risen several degrees, and the heating from the air conditioner keeps "running" to keep the room at a more suitable temperature.

"Boom boom boom..."

Shen Xin was about to find a comic book when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Who?" Shen Xin asked.

"Brother Xin, it's me, I have something to do."

something?

Shen Xin was at a loss, what could be going on now? Wouldn't it be the discovery of creatures like Xiaoqiang?

He opened the door, but saw Xi Muhan in pajamas, holding a notebook, his face was slightly red.

"What's wrong?"

"News... that scoundrel Chen Zijiao is all over." Xi Muhan said excitedly.

"Chen Zijiao?" Shen Xin frowned, letting Xi Muhan into the room, "What's wrong with him?"

"Right now, he is being discussed on the Internet... and "Tumbledown". Just now Su Han posted on Weibo to clarify the relationship with "Tumbledown". Now Chen Zijiao is the target of public criticism." Xi Muhan said while putting the notebook on the on the table.

Shen Xin pulled a chair and sat down, and moved her gaze to the webpage, the first thing she saw was a post.

"Such comics can still be published in magazines? Are comic magazines trash cans?"

Shen Xin then looked at the content of the post.

"I am the mother of a middle school student. I am usually away from home and neglect to discipline my children. As the Spring Festival approached, I finally had time to reunite with my family, but I found a magazine in my son's room. The cartoons in it were terrible. Rumu... I want to ask, can comics like this be published? What's the difference between this and the book?"

Next, the mother sent a few photos.

Shen Xin took a rough look at the picture, it should be the latest episode of "Dreamer", he has never seen the plot in the picture.

What the mother accused was two pages of storyboards that were not suitable for children. Simply put, the hero and heroine were finally together.

The picture processed by "holy light" attracts readers' attention even more.

"Shaky" has always been a meat-selling style, especially after it was changed to selling meat and fighting, it felt like stepping on the line, and this sentence completely broke through the bottom line of juvenile comics.

The comments below are also mixed. Some people support "Faltering", but more people criticize "Dragon Playing in Water" and draw pictures that should appear in youth comics into juvenile comics.

If there are only these two pages, it’s not a big deal. Some shonen comics have similar storyboards. For example, there are similar scenes in Takahashi Rumiko’s "A Moment of Gathering".

However, these images serve very different purposes in the two comics.

"A Moment of Gathering" is a light-hearted love comic. Those plots only state the fact that the hero and heroine are together. Therefore, the picture is also very restrained, using a lot of side-view storyboards, and giving a lot of storyboards to the leaves and outside the house. weather.

However, "Tumbling" is based on this as a selling point, and the scale is relatively larger.

"Chen Zijiao... what is he going to do?"

Shen Xin frowned, but she didn't feel relaxed in her heart.

He took out his mobile phone and called Yan Fei, but Yan Fei didn't answer.

Shen Xin rubbed her forehead, she can only wait until tomorrow to see how the situation develops.
