If it was Xiao Zining, who was at the level of an apprentice, he would definitely design and outline the pattern on the Hetian jade seed material first.

But now that he has stepped into the realm of a craftsman, he has already sketched a complete figure in his heart.

All he had to do was to show the graphics, so he didn't have to design them at all, and with the aid of precision, as long as it was where he carved the knife, it was exactly what he thought.

It was still a complete piece of seed material just now, and it was formed by Xiao Zining's rough carving in a blink of an eye.

The round knife carves the petals of flowers and leaves, and the flat knife cuts the joint slits.

Rough carving out of a large shape, not a little sloppy.

Xiao Zining, who was immersed in the world of carving, only had this Hetian jade seed material in front of him in his mind at this moment.

While holding the jade material in his left hand, he waved the knife calmly and vigorously with his right hand, showing the relief carving skills he had learned vividly and vividly.

The originally plain oval jade block presents a pleasing three-dimensional sense at the moment.

Although it is still hazy, it makes people look forward to it.

[A fist-sized Hetian jade seed material can really carve out a green shrimp?]

[My family bought prawns today, sit and wait for comparison. 】

[Upstairs, you're really enough, don't wait to see the anchor's shrimp, you can't eat those.] 】

……

Su Wanqing, who still had time to scan the message in the live broadcast room just now, was completely impressed when she saw Xiao Zining's flowing craftsmanship.

She stared intently at his slender fingers, moving her eyeballs as the knife changed.

It's simply a performing art.

Su Wanqing once admired the live paintings of sand painting masters, and was very surprised at the time, but compared with the current situation, sand painting masters are not enough.

In Xiao Zining's hands, the carving knives were as free and flexible as giving life.

What kind of shrimp can you carve?

Xiao Zining, who had no time to pay attention to the disturbances in the live broadcast room, raised and fell the carving knife as he wanted, and he would definitely not drag the mud and water when he should be bold, and he would definitely be meticulous when he should be cautious.

Between the jade shavings flying, soft and natural lines emerge one by one.

From bottom to top, from front to back, the outer contour gradually takes shape.

Now begin the rough carving of the inner contour.

Compared with the outer shape, the inner contour is undoubtedly the heaviest, and it must be advanced from the surface to the inside, from shallow to deep, layer by layer, in order to show the stability and thickness of the inner contour.

Only when the center of gravity is balanced and stable can the whole seed feed be revitalized.

This brings us to the relief technique.

In the most limited space, it brings people the strongest sense of visual impact.

The round knife and the flat knife were used alternately, Xiao Zining didn't dare to take anything lightly, and all his mind fell on this piece of jade.

As he engraved, a clear picture began to emerge slowly.

It can be clearly distinguished that in the jade is a meandering river, and there is a child by the river, who is watching a small shrimp swimming in the water.

Although the picture is still very rough, the parts that should have been formed have already been formed, and it can be regarded as "embryonic".

Rough carving is the most technological, covered with water is difficult to say that it is this stage, a little carelessness may be completely destroyed.

When this step was over, Xiao Zining raised his head and stretched, looked at Su Wanqing, who wanted to speak and stopped, and said with a slight smile: "Don't worry, it's time to work hard, this step is not far from success, you wait a little longer." ”

"I'm fine, it's up to you, do you want to take a break? Su Wanqing asked with concern.

"It's okay, I'm used to it for a long time, then I'll continue. Xiao Zining buried his head after speaking.

Fine carving is the careful and fine processing of jade carving shape, so that the pattern is depicted more clearly, so that each part can achieve the desired carving effect, is the shaping of texture, can be said to be the top priority in the jade carving process.

Just when Xiao Zining was carving, the live broadcast room had already exploded.

While admiring the kittens in the old alley, a wave of gifts walked up, one yacht after another, and in just half an hour, four yachts were sent, which suddenly attracted many curious people to enter the live broadcast room.

When they saw Xiao Zining's carving skills with their own eyes, they were also amazed.

[Tsk, I didn't expect that there is such a craftsman on our platform who is purely technical, and all the people who admire him are on the ground. 】

[I'm also brushing a wave of gifts, anchor, let's discuss, can you sell me this piece of hand?]

[I like it by hand, does anyone know the contact information of this master, urgently!]

……

Time passed minute by minute, and when the fine carving was over, Xiao Zining had no intention of stopping, and then began the basic grinding and polishing.

This process is also called "light work" in the industry, and it is usually polished little by little with oil stone or sandpaper, which is a typical slow work.

Every step of the jade carving process needs to be treated with 100% rigor and meticulousness, and there is no room for negligence and sloppiness.

The jade that has not been polished and polished is always a rough product, only after this step, the crystal clear beauty of the jade can be shown, the more perfect the polishing, the more warm and moist the jade, the more noble the temperament, of course, the final sealing wax is also essential.

"Alright, it's almost done!"

Putting down the oil stone, Xiao Zining twisted his neck and stretched his waist, although he was a little tired, he was very excited, because he was very satisfied with the carved handle.

"So, see if you like it?"

Su Wanqing's eyes had become straight at this moment, and she looked at the handle in front of her with a shocked face.

She witnessed the whole process from beginning to end, and witnessed the miracle happening, even so, it was hard to believe that the originally inconspicuous jade material could become so performative and visualized.

This reborn Hetian jade seed material, the front presents a picture of a child catching shrimp, a babbling river is not abrupt and lonely, there is a mountain peak inside, and a child carrying a fish basket outside.

The water comes out of the mountain stream, and the children play with the waves.

It was this child, who suddenly saw a smart green shrimp when he was playing in the water, and when he bowed over, he stretched out his hands to catch it.

And the core of the whole painting is not a child, but this green shrimp, in the face of imminent danger, the green shrimp seems to be unaware of the slightest, as if playing in the water by itself.

The seemingly simple lines show the leisurely and vivid nature of the green shrimp.

The most amazing thing is that the green shrimp is so realistic.

The long whiskers floated on the water, the strong short whiskers were buried in the water, the psychic eyes glanced ahead, the powerful pincers lazily retracted, the finishing touch of the tail swayed at will, and the background of the gravel at the bottom of the river made this green shrimp come to life in an instant.

All the fissures are used skillfully.

All the yellow skins shine in just the right place.

What a picture of a child catching shrimp!

What a piece of Wada handles!

He would be very happy if he gave this piece to his grandfather.

Thinking of this, Su Wanqing took the handle over and saw that the baby suddenly disappeared from front of her eyes, and the live broadcast room exploded after a short silence.
