Chapter 31 The first round carving
Wood carving can be divided into three categories: three-dimensional round carving, relief carving, and root carving, Liu Xu intends to take Xiao Jingjing as the prototype this time, so he can only choose three-dimensional round carving.
Round carving is the overall expression of art in carving, and the viewer can see all sides of the object from different angles.
Therefore, he has extremely strict requirements for the carver, and must have a specific overall view, he is carving from the front, back, left, right, up, middle, bottom, and all-round carving.
Liu Xu was also a first-time test at this time, but fortunately, the system was still guaranteed, which greatly increased his confidence.
In the process of making wood carving, the position of carving knives and auxiliary tools is also very important, a good word, "people are not as good as home, three points of craftsmanship and seven points of family," of course, this statement has made many people have misunderstood.
What he actually means is a person's craftsmanship, you have to see how this person maintains his tools, but it also indirectly tells us the importance of carving tools, for which Liu Xu also bought a set of handmade carving knives online, and spent him a small 3,000 soft sister coins.
Liu Xu hesitated to have the help of the system, and he shot sharply anywhere, never measuring, at this time, everyone looked at Liu Xu as if he was juggling, a round knife appeared in his hand for a while, an oblique knife appeared in his hand for a while, and a triangular knife was fast and fast, as if there was a phantom in his hand, and everyone around him was stunned.
"Can carving still be carved like this?" Cao Ruoshui asked with a surprised face at this time, and the girls all shook their heads when they heard this.
They are all lovers of classical culture, although they don't know traditional wood carving, but they also have some understanding of its operation techniques, and naturally they can see at a glance that Liu Xu is a round carving.
However, the carver of the round carving in their impression, that is not the first to plan, and then carefully carve, Liu Xu's rough technique, they have seen it for the first time.
"Brother Xiao Xu is so powerful, is this doing magic? Can you teach Jingjing?" At this time, the little girl looked at Liu Xu's hand, a tool would appear, and another tool would appear after a while, and she thought he was doing magic, and couldn't help but exclaim.
At this time, everyone listened to Xiao Jingjing's words, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, if Liu Xu didn't have that log in his hand, even they would think that Liu Xu was performing magic, after all, his technique was too fast, even they didn't find out that the carving knife was taken out from there.
"The junior brother is really different from ordinary people, this wood carving can also be galloping," Wu Lei said with a wry smile at this time.
"My old cow also has some research on these wood carvings, and I have also seen some domestic carving masters, this kind of carving technique, I have seen it for the first time," Niulanshan also said with a wry smile.
"This is about to take shape," at this time, Concubine Su Chen said suddenly, and at the same time attracted everyone's attention, at this time, the log in Liu Xu's hand could already see the shadow of the carving.
"Is this a tree, a bird, or a human?" asked Xia Yuxuan with some uncertainty at this time.
"That's right, what a powerful technique, Senior Brother Liu wants to complete the combination of figures, animals, and still life on this small log, this is definitely a master's means," at this time, Concubine Su Chen said with a rare loss of voice.
Cao Ruoshui, Qiao Mengxi and Xia Yuxuan also nodded seriously when they heard this, everyone here wants to say that they understand wood carving, or the four women are the best.
Although Xiaolan and Wu Lei didn't understand what Concubine Su Chen meant, when they saw their serious expressions, they knew that it was very powerful.
"Stinky boy, you don't tell my senior sister about so many crafts, see how I clean you up," Xiaolan thought a little darkly at this time, but if Liu Xu knew, he would definitely shout that he was wronged!
"Where is my coffee?" When everyone was looking at Liu Xu's hands with full attention, Liu Xu suddenly shouted.
However, when he raised his head and saw that except for Xiao Jingjing, who was playing with his mobile phone, everyone else was looking at him with eager eyes, he subconsciously leaned back on the sofa behind him.
"What's wrong with you?" asked Liu Xu with some fear at this time.
"Senior brother, where did you learn this carving technique, why haven't I seen it?"
"I have an immortal master in a dream who sees my bones as light, and deliberately accepts me as an apprentice in a dream, I have been reluctant to come first, seeing him begging so hard, I was forced to agree," Liu Xu said with a smile at this time.
"Brother Xiaoxu, did the white-bearded old man teach you? Then why didn't you come out to teach Jingjing?"
"The old man said, Jing Jing is still young, and he will teach her when she grows up," Liu Xu touched the little girl's head and said.
"Oh! I see! Jing Jing is loved by everyone, I said how the old man only taught Brother Xiao Xu, but didn't come to teach Jing Jingna," the little girl bit her finger and said.
When everyone heard this, they all laughed, and even the depression that Liu Xu had fooled them disappeared, and Liu Xu also shook his head helplessly, the little girl is so narcissistic at such a young age?
"Your coffee is ready," Brother Liang walked over with coffee.
"Thank you, thank you," everyone said thank you.
"The carving is good," at this time, Brother Liang looked at the round carving in Liu Xu's hand and said with a smile.
"It's not finished yet, you know what a boutique is when it's done, this is a gift for Xiao Jingjing, how can you take it out!"
Soon after Liu Xu finished drinking coffee, he immersed himself in carving, which is a job that requires all his heart and soul to be put into it.
At this time, Liu Xu began to carve carefully, and he found that carving was a work that required great patience, and when he put all his mind into it, he would find that his heart was calm at this time.
"The tree is out," Qiao Mengxi whispered to everyone at this time, hearing Qiao Mengxi's words, everyone found that at this time, the top of the log began to spread flowers, and every leaf of the wood tree was lifelike, and even the texture on the small leaves was clearly visible.
"I really envy this little guy for being able to get such a gift, even I, a person who doesn't know how to do it, is a burst of love," Liu Xiahai said with a smile at this time.
"It's not just you, I'm too! I didn't expect Brother Liu to have this hand, I really don't know where his end is," Niulanshan also nodded and said at this time, but as he spoke, his eyes suddenly flashed, as if he had made up his mind.
But what he didn't expect was that there were not a few people who had the same purpose as him.
"Is this a lark?" asked Xia Yuxuan at this time, Xia Yuxuan's voice was a little unstable at this time, mainly because this lark was too realistic.
Each feather is orderly, with its wings open, it has a sense of spreading its wings, and the most important thing is that the eyes are vivid, and the finishing touch is a legendary thing, but Liu Xu's eyesight today, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he would never believe that this was a human means.
