Chapter 900: Comparison

After the first episode of the serialization of "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny", the comment area became the most intense place for the entire light reading discussion.

"Let's check in first, then read the comics."

"It's black and white!? The author is too old, right? ”

"If you like to see it, you can watch it, and you don't like to see it!"

"That's right, as long as the comics are interesting, isn't it? Why do you have to fight? ”

"Did you read it? I think it's a shame that "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" is put on a light reading, and this manga should be serialized in "Comic Future". ”

"Why?"

"I think the overall quality of the picture is higher than that of "Ding Shi". The script is also better than "Ding Shi", and Mr. Lu's painting has made great progress. ”

"It's hard to say anything else, but the scripts of the two comics can't be compared, right? One is food with blood, the other is logical brain, the types are different, how to compare? ”

"The first episode of "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" looks so confusing, and some of it is difficult to understand."

"You're watching Gate of the Stone of Destiny for the first time, right?"

"That's right."

"It is advisable to go first."

"But after reading it, isn't it not fresh?"

"That's just as well."

"I'm going to publish a single book, two volumes of 100 yuan."

"Poof, it's so expensive. If only 70 yuan for two copies. ”

"Xue Dawei drew 10 color pages and 20 color pictures for "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny", and it is a hardcover version, so it is worth the money anyway, right?"

"I think it's worth the money, but I don't have it."

"Wait for the first edition to come out, see how the quality is, if there are no flaws, there is no problem in buying a single book, it should be used for collection."

"I hope it doesn't change too much."

"It's basically the original version, but the sentence has been modified, and it has been said on Weibo of "Qichuang Library".

"That's fine. I'm afraid that there will be too many changes, so I changed the ending. ”

"If the magazine dares to change the ending, Mr. Another will definitely be the first to be unwilling."

"That's right, I'm also scared (wry smile)."

"Oh, I still want to see the color page, what should I do?"

"Whether it's color comics or black and white comics, as long as the quality is high, reading is enjoyable. High-quality black-and-white comics definitely outperform low-quality color pages. There is no doubt that "Gate of Destiny Stone" belongs to the high-quality class! Highly recommended! ”

……

On the comic network, "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" has become the center of the topic, and the discussion area and comprehensive discussion area of the light reading have found the "Gate of the Stone of Destiny".

"Teacher Lu is still amazing, this is simply the "Gate of Destiny Stone" in my mind!"

"Damn, the scene where Ganglun found Chris's body is a spread! The screen is too small, and the screen has so much content that it looks a little bloated. ”

"I watched it with the pad, it was slightly better, but the effect was mediocre. Although the screen is large, it doesn't have enough impact. ”

"With a monitor! I use the computer monitor to watch, so comfortable! ”

"There's no website for light reading, right? What do you think? ”

"There's a simulator! You can read it by downloading the light reading app on the computer, and you can see a lot of details, which is really comfortable. Suffice it to say, on a light reading, there is absolutely no comic book of better quality than "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny". ”

"What about "The Demon King's Tutor"? The style of painting is also very good. ”

"Xueda's painting is good, but the colorer is not Xueda, which looks a little awkward."

"Contentment, huh? "The Demon King's Tutor" is already better than most color comics. ”

"On the list of light readings, it is already "Demon King Tutor" and "Gate of Destiny Stone" competing for the first place."

""Demon King's Tutor" has an advantage for the time being, right? It released two episodes, and soon it will release a third episode. ”

"One thing to say, the quality of these two comics is no less than the top comics of Comic Future."

"Guess, which one has better achievements, "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" or "The Demon King's Tutor"?"

"Then I don't know, wait."

"Time will tell!"

……

After Lu Yingxue learned that the comic of "The Gate of Destiny Stone" was about to be serialized, the time suddenly became long.

At the beginning, he really wanted to draw this comic, but Lu Ning took the lead, so he had to give up.

If the comic of "Gate of the Stone of Destiny" meets his expectations, then forget it, otherwise, he will definitely "review" this comic on the Internet.

When "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" was serialized, he read it for the first time.

Black and white comics are characterized by more expressive lines, which also give readers room for imagination.

When reading the comics of "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny", he did feel these characteristics, but he always felt that the picture was a little awkward, and because he was reading it on his mobile phone, the emotions accumulated by that spread could not be released, which also made him a little depressed.

Later, he changed to a 12.9-inch pad and used a double-page display, and the advantages and disadvantages of the "Gate of Destiny Stone" comics were clearly displayed in front of him.

The storyboard of "The Gate of Destiny Stone" is better than "The Demon King's Tutor", whether it is Shi Qun or Lu Yingxue, they are not as good as Lu Ning, and there is no way to deny it.

But "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" also has shortcomings, because the location of the first episode is the broadcasting building, many places have to deal with the transformation of light and shade, which involves the effect of light and shadow, and Lu Ning has made mistakes in this regard.

Among them, the painting with the most prominent feature is precisely the spreadβ€”the light source is outside, and Hong Liqi is lying in the small room.

When black and white comics encounter this kind of plot, it is best to draw from outside the door to the inside, the contrast of light and shadow is high, and it is easier to express the details, but in this way, there will be a problem, the picture is not strong, and the reader cannot express his shock through the change of his expression.

If you look at Ganglun standing at the doorway from the inside out, it is likely that the light and shadow are difficult to deal with because of the backlight.

In fact, the light and shadow treatment on this page is not good, but the storyboard chosen by Lu Ning can indeed better express the atmosphere of the picture.

Lu Yingxue's storyboard is average, and he can't figure out how to better handle this storyboard, thinking of this, he has some regrets - it would be nice if the details were more careful.

Just when Lu Yingxue secretly sighed pity, Shen Xin also called Lu Ning to his studio.

"You can't handle this page." Shen Xin pointed to the spread on the pad and looked up at Lu Ning.

"I also know, teacher, that although webtoons are not suitable for spreads, spreads are more shocking to readers. I believe that "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" has a chance to be published as a single book, and at that point, the charm of the spreads will come into play. Lu Ning explained.

"It's not. The angle of the storyboard is backlit, so the effect of this storyboard is greatly reduced, so it is best to change it. Shen Xin said.

"But, this ...... I...... I've been thinking about this storyboard for a long time......" Lu Ning was a little anxious, she still felt that this storyboard was the most in line with the artistic conception.

"Simple." Shen Xin took out a piece of paper and quickly drew the storyboard of the spread on the white paper, and at the same time, drew a box on the right side of Gang Lun's head and next to Hong Liqi, "Here, the close-up of the facial expressions of the two people should be better." Take the time to change it, right? Anyway, it's serialized on the Internet, talk to Editor-in-Chief Zeng Yue, he should be able to help you. Like you said, after all, we still have to publish a single book. ”

Lu Ning rubbed her forehead, a little remorseful.

She had gotten into the horns and had forgotten about it. Just because it's a spread doesn't mean you can't have other cells.

"Teacher, I'll change it when I go back...... By the way, is your short story finished? ”

"Wait for the popularity of the first episode of "The Gate of Destiny Stone" to go down, right? In another three or four days, it should be fine. Shen Xin looked at Yan Fei, who was arguing with Wang Wenhong in a whisper, "Sister Yan, hurry up and translate the dialogue, it's about to be used." ”

"Half of it is done, and the remaining half will be fine soon." Sister Yan hurriedly replied.

Lu Ning was confused, and she couldn't figure it out.

How do you draw a short story and need to translate it?
