"Teacher, you have now achieved amazing results in the field of science fiction comics and funny unit dramas. www.biquge.info I think that you should not choose a new direction in the future, but should strengthen these two aspects. ”

"Well, yes, that's what I thought." Li Shanhe nodded.

Maiko lifted her spirits and said, "I think it's difficult to have the same work that can be surpassed in a short period of time, and it tests the author's accumulation of life materials. But science fiction works are different, this is the hottest subject now, and there are many directions that can be written! ”

If you ask what theme is the most popular now, it is undoubtedly SF (science fiction).

Thanks to the blessing of the United States and the Soviet Union in the global hegemony, science and technology are progressing day by day. The two sides have also launched fierce competition in space, and the United States launched Apollo 9 next year, successfully landing on the moon, which pushed this craze to the highest peak.

Although the Soviet Union gave up after that, the space competition between the United States and the Soviet Union slowed down, but science fiction works will continue to be hot for more than ten years under this wave.

As if encouraged, Maiko said, "Teacher, your "Legend of the Galactic Heroes" has written about the Galactic War, you can dig in other categories!" For example, the hottest robot right now, the robot, the robot! ”

The corners of Li Shanhe's mouth twitched: "Are you a robot fan?" ”

"Yes, I like Hengshan Guanghui's "Iron Man No. 28" the most! "Astro Boy" also likes it! I've always been aiming to create such a classic work! ”

"That's good, but I don't like it, the 28th is so ugly." Li Shanhe squeaked and crushed the potato chips, "I have already decided what I want to paint next." ”

Maiko's face fell: "Huh? Teacher, you've already decided? Then what are you asking me for? ”

"Seeing that you are so energetic, I'm afraid you will be suffocated." Li Shanhe laughed and said, "Don't worry, it's related to robots." ”

Maiko pouted: "The teacher secretly did everything by himself again...... Can you tell me what the theme is? ”

"Let's make a space sightseeing film."

"Sightseeing films?" Maiko was confused, what was this, it didn't sound cool at all.

"What kind of eyes are you? …… Okay, I'll talk to you. Li Shanhe sat up cross-legged from the sofa, "Have you watched Star Trek?" This is the space sightseeing film. ”

"Star Trek? Teacher, you want to draw a caricature like this? "Maiko is excited, crazy, this is the supreme classic in the hearts of countless science fiction fans! Am I going to witness the birth of such a work?

"No, it's just the same type. The so-called sightseeing is about reverie, writing about whatever comes to mind. Convenient irrigation to cheat money. Li Shanhe smacked it, "But the idea is good, you can rub off on the popularity of "Star Trek" when you promote it." ”

Maiko patted the horse and said: "No matter what, under your pen, teacher, it will definitely become a generation of classics!" ”

"Slapping me on the back won't let you see the manuscript right now." Li Shanhe shrugged, "I'll almost finish the first draft tomorrow." Bring your assistant here, and remember to be good at drawing planets. ”

"Yes! Teacher! I can't wait! Maiko said excitedly.

----

Li Shanhe already has a science fiction work "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes", but strictly speaking, this is a space opera, and there is no fantasy element.

The new work is the opposite, there are too many fantasy elements, and there are no scientific elements.

However, that's it for RB's SF works.,Boy-oriented comics.,What real science do you want.。

After sending off Maiko, Li Shanhe used the new workshop for the first time.

The door to the workshop is still locked to prevent accidental entry. The walls are filled with sound-absorbing materials, and Li Shanhe also arranges Bluetooth speakers here. With a finger, the wonderful "Ode to Joy" suddenly sounded.

It's so cool, it's good to have your own room, no matter how loud the sound is, you don't have to worry about disturbing the neighbors anymore.

Accompanied by beautiful music, Li Shanhe opened the safe.

There are four file bags from left to right, and the leftmost "Crayon Xiaoxin" has been handed in, and he takes out the second file bag.

Inside is a covered cover that has already been painted, and the back half of a train is still driving in the middle of the earth, and the top half has taken off.

The top few big words:

Galaxy Railway 999

The fantasy elements of this work are very strong, first of all, a train that can travel in space, or a coal-burning one, and a smoke-billowing chimney is guiding the way.

As soon as the whistle sounds, it leads to the unknown galaxy......

This is the romance of this era.

In terms of subject matter, the exact classification should be "space travel film", the protagonists will wander together in various strange planets, such as ramen planet, watermelon planet, etc., if Li Shanhe doesn't want to follow the original work, he can also pull out a plot at any time, and he can easily do it without violating the harmony.

The most important thing is that the characters in this work are more difficult than "Crayon Xiaoxin", so that Li Shanhe can imitate them to his heart's content.

The characters of "Galaxy Railway 999" are relatively simple, but they have high requirements for the background, because they are all planets and night sky, and now with the comic assistant, the background can be completely left to them, just focus on the characters and the train.

"Cortana, Face Recognition - Character Recognition."

As an artificial intelligence assistant, Cortana has been trained very well in "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes", but in the new work, she needs to start all over again.

Cortana can automatically identify the faces in the picture, but the authors with different painting styles have different lines of light and dark. Cortana couldn't select the character's body well at first, and she had to fine-tune it manually. With each adjustment, Cortana learns, and after a few times, it can perfectly replace labor.

The dotted line selected the human body, and after the identification was completed, Li Shanhe issued the next order:

“OK…… Copy, paste, and save characters as separate layers. ”

He took two steps back and looked at the effect, which was good. Once you've cut out the characters, you're left with the background.

"Cortana, select the comic grid - copy, paste, then layer hidden."

In this way, Li Shanhe got three layers, one for the characters, one for the grid, and one for the background.

Yes, Li Shanhe nodded, and then asked the printer to print only the grid.

"Now, it's time for me to practice imitation!"

After the exercise of "Crayon Xiaoxin", Li Shanhe already has a good level of cognition of comics. "Galaxy Railway 999" is his next step.

He sat down at the comic workbench, placed the lattice paper on it, and pulled over a stand.

The upper end of the stand is made of transparent glass, and Li Shanhe puts the mobile phone on it, so that the light of the projector shines from top to bottom.

"Closer focus...... Closer, okay, right, image zoomed out, zoomed out...... OK”

He waited until the PS software in the projector completely coincided with the grid on the paper, and then he clapped his hands, so that he could draw his own draft while looking at the finished draft in his mobile phone.

The projector only projects the "person" layer and reflects it on the paper, and Li Shanhe can imitate it 100%.

This is the real copying!

The fastest way to improve your comics!

He quickly mastered the new style of crayon, and this time he adjusted while drawing, and it probably took a month or two to learn the essence of it, right?

As he paints, he thinks about where he should revise and adjust.

The painting style of the original Matsumoto Zeroshi, he didn't like it very much, it was too gloomy. What is the goal that Li Shanhe has set for himself? A sunny and cheerful beautiful boy writer from China!

As a foreigner, you will definitely be found with a magnifying glass, and if the train is broken and dirty, you will inevitably jump on personal attacks.

It's better to draw it cleanly from the beginning. On some details, paint more shadows to increase the sense of realism. The current RB train is very dirty, and the painting is too clean and unrealistic.
