Chapter 79: You Look Overmature
While Akio Sugie finds a new hobby, Shiraishi also gets busy.
It is not difficult for puppeteers to draw with a pen, but the carpentry work of making a picture frame several meters high may have to be done in the year of the monkey.
Shiraishi temporarily crammed Buddha's feet, studied for a week, and finally mastered the basic skills, and was ready to start making the customized frame of Ochiai Aoi.
Next to it was a miniature sample, which the puppeteer had tried to make, and it was only the size of two palms together.
Before he started, Shiraishi held it and studied it for a while.
The frame is thicker than a normal frame, with an empty middle, and the thin layer of wood on the surface that is used for painting appears to be made up of countless smaller pieces of wood.
If you turn the frame upside down, you can see the hidden area behind the side, and there is a small area where the color is different from the surrounding area.
Shiraishi stretched out his hand and pressed on it, and the countless small wooden boards on the surface snapped and turned over one after another, which was equivalent to turning the whole painting over.
"It's more troublesome to paint directly on wood than on cloth...... But there is no way, so that the effect is more shocking, if you use cloth, you have to tear off the cloth first, it is too cheap. The puppet looked at his work and was barely satisfied.
This superfluous black technology makes Baishi confused:
"Wouldn't the painting outside collapse after such a turn? What's hidden inside is certainly not complete.
"Why don't you just paint two pictures? Or put two layers of wood, one hidden inside and one exposed outside - when you want to show people the hidden work, just smash the outer layer, isn't it more convenient. ”
"Then there is no beauty at all! What I want is this strong contrast between one style of painting on the front and another style on the back! As for the painting inside, it doesn't matter if it's complete or not, as long as the information it contains can be conveyed! ”
The puppeteer scratched the back of his head, a little annoyed and angry no matter how he looked at it. It seems that the shortcomings that Shiraishi said are indeed what he cares about.
This kind of technical problem is really difficult to solve.
Shiraishi thought about it for a while, but didn't come up with a solution, so he simply didn't care, anyway, this thing wasn't used for him.
However, curiosity still needs to be satisfied: "What does Ochiai want this kind of thing for?" ”
After thinking about the two young men he had seen before, a thought flashed through Bai Shi's mind, and he blurted out, "Confession?" ”
"She said she wanted to 'slap the judges in the face'." When the puppeteer mentioned this, he was also very interested:
"This competition is only allowed to participate in people aged 25 and below, in the name of discovering the most potential new generation, but the judges are all a group of rigid old men, not trendy at all.
"They emphasize the need to inject their own soul into their paintings and emphasize innovation, but after so many years, all the award-winning works are those so-called 'deep' works, and those that are really innovative will be criticized for being useless and disliked for being too nonsense."
Shiraishi looked at the indignant puppeteer, and suddenly thought of a question:
"Wait, you...... Not even 25?! ”
Its tone is not like a bystander at all, but too much like a cannon fodder that has been brushed down because of "innovation".
The puppet raised his head and looked at him strangely: "You are Shu Sen Mohua, this year, I just turned 24." ”
"......" Bai Shi was shocked, and only squeezed out a sentence after a while, "Early marriage and early pregnancy are said to be bad......"
"What's with what." The puppeteer didn't understand what Shiraishi was pressing, so he simply didn't say anything, and continued the topic just now:
"Ochiai has always been very dismissive of their selection criteria, so she decided to draw a work that can win an award for the sake of "depth", and then when she received the award, she showed the painting that was really "soul-injected" in it for those people to see. ”
The puppeteer shook his head with a smile, and the irascible little old man even laughed as if he was snorting angrily:
"She's really bold, if she doesn't go abroad, she won't want to win a second award in her life. But she definitely didn't care, after all......"
It fell silent as it spoke, shook its head, and picked up the small hammer next to it, ready to come up with an improvement plan.
didn't take two steps, and was pinched by Baishi's arm and slipped back.
When ordering the materials, Shiraishi knew that there would be two pairs of this frame, one of which was kept by the puppeteer.
He was really curious: "In the last life, which of you two won the award?" ”
"It's her, let me go!" The puppeteer was dissatisfied with Shiraishi's problems and his movements, and dropped the hammer to push his hand away.
It clicked and moved its shoulders, and then was a little unconvinced, and muttered with a little envy:
"Anyway, at least in terms of painting...... She's a rare genius. ”
……
After the frame was finished, one was towed away by Ochiai Aoi, while the other was left at home.
It may be that the desire to draw is too strong, and although the puppeteer's body has not grown, it has more strength than before, and it holds the pen more steadily.
It first placed some partitions between the chips to prevent the paint and pigment from sticking.
The painting drawn in this way will inevitably be a little intermittent, but after all, it is a big guy with the luck of the protagonist, and there is a unique technology tree bonus in this world, after the painting, the effect is unexpectedly good.
After two months of drying, the puppets are carefully coated with varnish on this layer for easy preservation. Although it is not completely dried yet, if it is delayed any longer, it will be too late to participate in the competition.
The puppet can only comfort itself with the old saying: the meaning is the most important thing.
After processing the inner layer, Shiraishi found the switch that blended perfectly into the environment after being painted, and pressed it.
The mechanism activated, and Shiraishi watched the wood chips flip over one by one with great curiosity.
Soon, there was another blank picture frame in front of me.
The puppeteer began to operate on this side again, thinking in the same way as Ochiai Aoi, drawing works that he felt would win awards.
The days flew by, and in the process of gradually perfecting the frame and large oil paintings, Akio Sugie, who was sent to learn karate, was already a little fruitful.
Bai Shi watched his back become straighter, and his spirit was getting better and better.
But one thing wasn't quite right: the kid was always peeking at him with a strange look.
Taking advantage of his young age and being able to fight, Baishi asked directly: "What kind of eyes are you, what do you keep looking at me?" ”
After all, Akio Sugie is still a child, he can't hide things in his heart, and recently, his personality has not been so introverted.
As soon as Baishi asked, he couldn't hold back his confession: "Dad, you haven't beaten me for a long time, I originally wanted to ...... I want to see if I can beat you. ”
This is a very special requirement.
Shiraishi sneered, and with a bit of a joke in mind, suddenly reached out to the top of his head.
He felt that he was already moving very fast, but he didn't expect that before he touched the soft hair, he was intercepted by Akio Sugie. The action was so fast that Shiraishi almost couldn't see it clearly, and the strength was not like that of a child.
Bai Shi was stunned, his face was calm, and his heart was surprised.
…… Is this the power of karate?
Or should I say that the grandson of luck is terrifying?
Thinking about it, Shiraishi was a little moved. He felt that when he got these tasks done, he should also sign up for a karate class and give it a try.
I don't know if a person like him, who is a halfway monk, can have the effect of Mao Lilan's small practice.
Akio Sugie held Shiraishi's wrist, cheered, and happily put his hand on top of his head and touched it twice.
Then the kid cleared his throat and showed a serious expression: "I think I can protect the balls now!" I'll pick it up tomorrow! ”
"Oh, good." Shiraishi withdrew his hand, took the milk handed by Ayami Sugie, and dug a spoonful, not taking it to heart.
However, he never expected that the next day, Akio Sugie would take a group of friends from the karate class and push the entire kindergarten.
