27. The Way of Drawing: An Introduction to Sketching

Lin Chaomu really picked up his phone and started to read it. Ang Lee was drinking the coffee in the cup while staring at the page of the novel boredly.

In his system backpack in his mind, not only the novel text of the book "Dragon Clan", but also the cover and handwritten outline of the novel.

The cover is a pencil drawing, which should be the manuscript designed by the original author. This painting is not complicated. Generally speaking, it is a door composed of some lines, and the name of the novel is in the middle.

Ang Lee decided to use the original cover of the book, which was simple and grand. He took the paper and pen in front of Lin Chaomu to himself, and began to copy the painting from a distance based on the painting in his mind.

Ang Lee actually doesn't know how to draw. His painting skills are still at the level of copying a thin piece of paper on a comic in junior high school. This is a skill that everyone knows, because class is really boring, so he has to find something interesting to pass the time.

After copying, he will use different colored pens to color the original paintings in the comics. Ang Lee is doing this now, but the original paintings are just in his mind.

After he finished copying, he would just find someone to draw a new picture for him on a computer. Li An thought to himself and started to draw slowly.

But he underestimated the difficulty of this matter. After all, there was no physical object placed below for him to copy. Although it was just a simple line, he drew it from Ang Lee and picked it up from the ground with the swallows before he had time to apply a messy nest.

Just as Ang Lee was about to give up and look for some cool pictures online as the cover of the novel, a sound suddenly rang out in his mind.

[Congratulations to the host for opening a new art field: painting, and obtaining painting skills: the way to paint]

[The Way of Painting: The host has all theoretical knowledge of painting skills. Note: This skill does not have proficiency]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining special skills through painting: Getting started with sketching]

[Introduction to sketching: Special skills, the host can master sketching and drawing to reach the entry-level level]

I'll wipe it?!

There is also such a good thing, Ang Lee was surprised. After passing the skill of the musical instrument, Ang Lee had already gained experience in the painting method. Now he has a lot of knowledge about painting in his mind. He picked a sketch casually, and a lot of information emerged in his mind like a sea of ​​incomprehensible information.

What are the knowledge points about sketching, such as shape, line, structure, light and dark, perspective, etc.

Ang Lee was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that he would open a new field that he had never been exposed to before, that is, the painting field.

After tasting the sweetness brought by the musical instruments, Ang Lee now has some expectations. Does this mean that as long as he is willing to spend time, he can become a master of painting in the world?

What are oil paintings, inks, and fine brushwork? As long as he thinks and spends a little time practicing, he can have the proficiency that others can't match as if he is riding a rocket.

Just now, he just copied a few symbolic strokes from a distance, and the special skill of [Introduction to Sketch] appeared directly. I have to say that this all-round art system is really too perverted.

If others know that they have worked hard to enroll in classes for several months and one or two years and Ang Lee mastered it just by drawing a few strokes, they wouldn’t cry to death? Ang Lee thought to himself.

Now, looking at the cover picture of the novel in the system, Ang Lee shook his head and sighed that it was too simple. The lines that looked messy now can easily analyze their structural levels and light and dark relationships.

Ang Lee is confident that he can copy the cover of this novel in just five minutes now.

But now Ang Lee felt it was too unchallenging, so he decided to find something more difficult for him to try, what is his level of introductory sketching?

Only now did Ang Lee realize that sketches were divided into four categories, namely still life sketches, landscape sketches, character sketches, and gypsum sketches. Before this, he thought that sketching was just a copying from a distance, but it seemed that it was true, but the techniques used between different categories were different.

What to draw?

Ang Lee looked around and finally turned his gaze to Lin Chaomu, opposite him. Isn’t there a living material in front of him?

At this time, Lin Chaomu was watching with his cell phone intently, motionless, and seemed to be fascinated.

Ang Lee seized the time to erase the few lines he had drawn on the paper with an eraser. Since there was no drawing board, he could only try it with the table.

The pencil in your hand gently starts to make lines. The first step in drawing a character is to find the center point, and then starts to make lines on the outline of the character, that is, draw a simple outline, such as the face shape, the more prominent eye sockets, nose and ears, etc., and gently draw a contour with a pencil.

Ang Lee was surprised to find that the sketch that he knew nothing about now had some tricks that he could pick up. It was engraved in his bones like muscle memory. He drew a few lines and drew outlines of Lin Chaomu's face. However, because the phone blocked the nose and couldn't see it, he could only use the phone as the center point.

After finishing the contour lines, what you need to do is adjust the proportions and then describe the perspective relationship, which is the so-called three-dimensional sense, such as the nose is more prominent than the mouth, the ears are behind the face, etc.

After doing this step, you will make a tone, and this step is to deepen the lines you just drew. After clarifying the relationship between proportion and perspective, you can make a tone, that is, make some detailed descriptions on the outline.

Next, we will clarify the lines. This step is to the link that insiders often say that they do some refinement while outsiders say that their eyes can’t do their hands, such as the refinement of hair and facial features, including shadows, structures and lines, which are considered a few more critical points in sketching.

Ang Lee kept looking up at Lin Chaomu, and kept looking down and drawing lines on the paper. He enjoyed the feeling of expanding territory in a brand new field. The surprise and sudden realization made him very enjoyed it.

It turns out that this is just painting, and it doesn’t seem very difficult. An An thought to himself, and quickly scratched the paper. The contact between the tip of the pen and the paper made a slight rustling sound, which sounded extremely comfortable.

"And Lee, I didn't expect that your writing style is so good. You can describe abstract characters in a person so concretely. And the beginning is too big, right?!"

Lin Chaomu said in amazement. Looking at the opening of the ten thousand words and prologue, she was still feeling a little unsatisfied. She was about to put down her phone, but suddenly she heard Ang Lee shout.
Chapter completed!
