Chapter 349: The Crisis of the Cartoonist (Part II)
The girl who touched the fish was stunned and said, "Shirakawa-san..."
"Huh?"
"Are you going to help me again..."
"Stop talking stupid." Shirakawasawa said calmly: "I'm just worried that you, who don't have the income of a manga artist, won't be able to pay for tutoring." β
"So, it's not helping you, it's helping myself."
ββ¦β¦β
"Don't be in a daze there, come in quickly." Shirakawa Zehei frowned and said, "I'm on leave now, I'll solve your matter as soon as possible, so I can go back to study." β
Do you want to take a leave of absence...
It turns out that for me such a troublesome guy... Shirakawa-san took a leave of absence...
Thinking like this, Ichishiki Brocade raised his eyes to look at the boy's figure again, and his eyes seemed to be a little more relieved and touched.
So... Sister Riyin used to think that I was too dependent on Shirakawa-san... Is it true?
β¦β¦
There was a room in the fish girl's house before.,Dedicated to Hinata Riyin to come and borrow.,Similarly,Hinata Riyin's home also has such a room.γ When Shirakawa Sawapei first entered this room, he thought he was in the wrong place.
This... It's clearly a studio... With all kinds of equipment, it is no exaggeration to say that this place looks more like a manga artist's workshop than Isshiki Haori's own original room.
"Shirakawa-san... You find a place to sit..."The girl who touched the fish said to him while familiarly bypassing the waste manuscripts on the ground.γDoujinshi": "I'm going to get the journal that was sent before..."
The journal that was sent over refers to,Naturally, it's the publication where the one-color feather brocade comic is serialized"Monthly Girls",To be honest,,Since the fish girl officially began to become a cartoonist,I haven't seen much of her work.,On the one hand, because of the previous ghost Jk's book,It's been given her a certain lesson.,I believe she won't dare to do it again in a short time.,On the other hand...
This is a girl's comic publication, wouldn't a boy buy it socially dead?
In all fairness, the painting skills and level of the Ichishiki feather brocade, there must be nothing to say, otherwise, it would be impossible to have a lv4 painting. Unfortunately, if you want to become a cartoonist, drawing skills are a must, but not the only one.
Today's readers are not as easy to coax as they used to be, and with the development of the Internet age, a new type of creature has begun to come alive... Shirakawa Zehei was a little suspicious, and the girl who touched the fish may have been forced to collapse her mentality, and the follow-up quality declined, and she finally had the risk of being cut in half.
If you can find the problems in her work and help solve them, it is indeed a small matter. It's a pity that Shirakawa Zehei carefully flipped through the girl's work, but he couldn't find any principled questions from it...
Routine? But the big guys are doing this, don't say what routines are not routines, there are many anti-routines, isn't that also a routine?
Could it be... It's really like she said before... There is no sense of love in her work? Girls, this is too much trouble, isn't it...
"Shirakawa-san..."Ishiki Hawa asked nervously, "You... What do you think? β
Shirakawa Sawahei pondered for a moment and replied, "I think it's okay... What did Miss Morihara tell you before? β
"Miss Morihara just told me at first that there were some negative comments and told me not to pay too much attention to them..."
The girl who touched the fish sighed, and continued: "Actually, I also understand that creation will always face doubts... It's impossible for any work to be liked by everyone... That's the same when I first started drawing fandom..."
"So I thought... If I can come up with better, higher-quality works, I'll be able to satisfy everyone...
"Later... You also know what happened later, Shirakawa-san. The little cutie of Ichishiki Yu hung her head and said: "I didn't expect to work hard to draw the manuscript, but what I was waiting for was a notice that it was possible to cut it in half... Since then, when I look at my previous work, I think it's weird..."
"Didn't you have experience as a book artist before?" Shirakawa Zehei said strangely: "Isn't there a way to adjust your mentality?" β
"I can't help it! A painter is a painter... A cartoonist is a cartoonist, and these two are not the same..."The girl who touched the fish said melancholy: "Now I am beginning to wonder if I have this talent..."
Even if you have a lv4 painting of the Ichishiki Feather Brocade, you can't help but doubt yourself when faced with setbacks.
This may be a common problem in creative professions, whether it is an author or a cartoonist, they are all equally eager for recognition and attention, unless your talent is enough to amaze the long river of history, otherwise it is still inevitable to enter a state of gain and loss.
"Why is it that a cartoonist is not the same as an artist? Isn't it all about creating stories? β
"The readers are different!" One color feather cutie said angrily: "When I released the artist's new work before, the following comments were all like: Great good person, great and awesome such encouragement... When I got to the cartoonist, some people began to struggle with a little bit of a problem... It's like reading a manga with a microscope! β
"I'm not drawing quintuplets comics! It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense at all! β
Shirakawa Sawapei: "......"
There is nothing wrong with this statement.,The driving post or the driving group are the most harmonious.,All of them are good people of the landlord.,The landlord's life is safe.,Want to see this group of old people arguing and scolding inside? Inexistent.
Unless, you're drawing a minotaur. Only in this case will a group of old perverts fight each other...
"And what about your current manuscript?"
ββ¦β¦β
"You're not going to be done yet, are you?" Shirakawa Zehei said speechlessly: "Just now I thought you started to work hard a little, so quickly revealed your true form?" β
"Not really!" The fish-touching girl retorted loudly, "It's just... It's just that after I heard the news of the cut, my mentality was very broken... The more you draw, the more you can't do it, the more you draw, the more boring it becomes... At last... It's not close..."
"A little?"
"A little!"
Shirakawa Sawahei glanced at the calendar on his phone and asked, "When is the delivery date for the next issue?" β
"This Friday..."
"That's three days to go. From now on, it should be possible to go from % to 00%. Shirakawa Zehei nodded and said, "I'll supervise you next, no problem." β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
"That's not right, Shirakawa-san, why do you think that my manuscript is only % complete..."
"Then you can show me it?"
"It's... This..."
"That's not it."
"How is that possible!" The girl who touched the fish seemed to be stimulated, jumped up in a huff, sorted out the messy line drawings that had been placed on the table before, and handed them to Shirakawa Zehei.
"Look! That's what I did! It's really almost done..."
Shirakawa Zehei took the sketch and began to look at it silently, and the girl who touched the fish also didn't speak, waiting for the other party's evaluation in the bottom of her heart...
After a while, the voice from the other side came, and the girl raised her head slightly, her eyes full of apprehension and expectation
"I'm done."
"To be honest, if this level is released, it may really be cut in half."
The last glimmer of hope in his heart was shattered, and the face of Ichishiki Feather Brocade suddenly turned white.
"So Shirakawa-san thinks so too... Really... In this state, it is impossible for me to create something that touches the heartstrings..."
"Well... It's not unacceptable... After all, I transitioned from a painter in the first place.,Now that the transformation fails, it's not uncommon to go back and continue to be a fanart artist... Many of my predecessors have seen examples of this..."
Ichishiki Haori tried her best to make her tone sound relaxed, but in Shirakawa Zehei's ears, it was still trembling slightly.
"My career as a cartoonist... That's the end of it... I haven't succeeded yet, and I haven't let Sakurasawa-chan, Natsuori, and Tachibana-san know about my work... I didn't proudly tell anyone about the name of the manga artist Ichishikiha..."
"Strange... What's wrong with me... I don't cry anymore... It's weird..."
She wiped the tears that kept pouring out to herself, and her voice sounded extremely distressing, and Shirakawa Sawahei was silent for a moment before speaking softly.
"I'm just saying if."
"It's not published yet, so there's still a chance to change."
