Chapter 18: Getting Better

"Brother Chen, it's really not good, I'll give ...... money."

……

"Brother, will you pinch the clay figurines?" asked after half an hour, Ah Chen looked at the clay figurines in Xiao Zhang's hand.

"Brother, it's not right for you to do this, this expression is completely wrong. An hour later, Ah Chen looked at the terracotta figurines in Xiao Zhang's hand and said.

"Brother, you can't make a deal at all this time, so you wait for ......" After an hour and a half, Ah Chen finally left.

Two hours later......

"Brother, come on, come on, take a look at this, this is the template that my brother I just went to Panjiayuan to get for you, this is all modern imitation, although it is fake at first glance, but at least the appearance is realistic, you can follow this as the prototype!" Ah Chen held a bag of freshly bought terracotta figurines and handed them to Xiao Zhang.

Xiao Zhang patted his head.

Why didn't I think of it, there are so many things in Panjiayuan.

Wouldn't it be very fast to buy two of them by yourself, and pinch them accordingly.

With the appearance to make a comparison, it is really much easier to pinch......

It's the same as painting, many people can't draw anything out of their imagination, but as long as there is a comparative reference, you can draw very well.

Behind closed doors is not for newbies.

The thinking of the masters is all the same.

Whether it is a master of pinching terracotta figurines or a master of painting, if you want to achieve a state that can only be achieved after countless times of practice if you want to achieve it without using references.

This time, Xiao Zhang really had an idea.

Another ten minutes passed.

"Brother Ah Chen, what do you think of this?" Xiao Zhang asked, holding up a clay figure in his hand that had just been formed by himself.

"Yes, yes, this one is obviously much better, what are the things you pinched before. Ah Chen nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing that the terracotta figurines pinched by Xiao Zhang were all small, he was relieved, even if it was a hundred, it probably wouldn't use too many raw materials.

I can afford this amount of money, not to mention Mr. Bai, who is in charge of the shop.

It's good that he didn't copy the terracotta warriors......

Xiao Zhang looked at the formed clay figurine in his hand, thinking about the one he pinched yesterday......

Sure enough, it's not all the way.

"Craftsman, how about you look at my latest terracotta figurines?" Xiao Zhang asked.

The system was silent for a moment: "Host, does this need to be shown? Isn't this a basic skill?"

Xiao Zhang: "......"

Noon passed quickly.

Xiao Zhang is getting more and more comfortable.

By about three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Zhang's side had already placed about forty or fifty pinched terracotta figurines of different shapes.

"Brother Chen, you are helping me to see how much this kiln can burn, I'll burn a kiln first. "Xiao Zhang's waist hurts a little.

"Gotta hey, hey, yes, your technique is getting more and more exquisite, even the Shandong pottery music and dance acrobatic figurines can be imitated, I'll see what this is, hey, this is a copy of the Sichuan pottery rap figurines, this is very similar to the Henan technical figurines, brother, where did you come from?" A Chen was stunned, the terracotta figurines he brought back were all relatively simple imitations of the Han Dynasty figurines on the market, and the shape was dull and not complicated at all.

I haven't noticed it for a few hours, and the shapes of the imitation figurines around this kid are already very rich.

If you look closely, you can see almost all kinds of terracotta figurines from various dynasties and regions.

This kid is really talented in pinching terracotta figurines.

I can't starve to death just because of this craft.

These terracotta figurines are taken out and set up a stall at random, and it is not a problem to buy a figurine for thirty or fifty, and sell for one or two hundred for a good one.

"Hehe, Brother Chen, I have pinched more than ten terracotta figurines you gave me, and I have pinched enough, I don't have any other prototypes, so I took a look at Baidu on my mobile phone, and there are a lot of pictures on it, so I pinched them all over the ......" Xiao Zhang said with a smile.

"You kid, then I'll go out for nothing, how good is it for you to go directly to Baidu?" Ah Chen jumped up and said.

"That's not good, fortunately Brother Ah Chen brought me the physical object, otherwise I would definitely not know the structural proportion of this physical object, this is too critical, and I have to thank Brother A Chen." Xiao Zhang hurriedly said.

What Xiao Zhang said is indeed the truth, even if he is talented, there is no physical object to compare, he still has to explore for a long time and take many detours.

"Yes, as long as you kid speaks nicely, I'll open a kiln for you. Ah Chen shook his head, he really can't talk about this kid.

Whoever lets this boy speak, he loves to listen.

A few workers next to him helped to place all the different terracotta figurines on the ground into the kiln.

"It's okay, brothers, you can put it a little denser, and the more you can burn out in a kiln, the better. Xiao Zhang said with a smile.

"Brother Xiao Zhang, it's not that buddy said you, your pottery figurines from this kiln are really not worth much, and they can't reach the money we have to open the kiln......" The worker was also familiar with Xiao Zhang and teased.

"Hehe, it's the first time I've pinched, in order to give an explanation to the teacher, everyone, don't you have a good relationship with Brother Chen, otherwise who can help me with this." ”

"That's right, our Boss Chen is the most righteous. ”

……

It needs to be fired for a period of time here, so Xiao Zhang didn't stop, and continued to sit down and knead the pottery figurines.

There are too many pictures on Baidu.

Xiao Zhang could clearly feel that his proficiency was rising.

Now a piece of clay can almost be said to be able to quickly make the desired human shape in your own hands, and after simple modification and processing, you can achieve the basic state.

In about fifteen minutes, Xiao Zhang was able to pinch a qualified terracotta figurine.

Of course, such qualified terracotta figurines can be sold for thirty or fifty yuan at most in the market.

Until nightfall came.

"Brother, we're going to open the kiln. Ah Chen shouted.

"Well, I'll come over here. Xiao Zhang stood up, but felt sore.

It's a lot of work.

When Xiao Zhang rushed over, he was very nervous.

I'm afraid that my kiln will burn down again, and my hard work will be in vain.

As the kiln mouth opens, the temperature slowly drops.

The workers took the tools and took out the nearest maid imitating the Tang Dynasty.

"Yes, yes, brother, you can do this skill, you can pass the test. Ah Chen looked left and right and said with a smile.

Xiao Zhang also leaned over to take a look.

The maid she made was modeled after the Tang Dynasty made of the lady figurines, the face is more fine, the clothes are gorgeous, although there is no color, but from the appearance of the point of view has been very complete, there is no previous crooked, the color is black, the state of burning and cracking has occurred.

One after another, the workers took out all the terracotta figurines.

Almost forty or so were placed on the ground at one time, and it looked as if a large tomb had just been dug up......

So many artifacts have been unearthed......

Of course, Xiao Zhang and these people gathered here.

There may also be another feeling, that is, the scene of large-scale counterfeiting......

"Craftsman, are you still satisfied with the terracotta figurines completed this time?"
