"Back to the beginning, standing in front of the mirror in a daze, clumsily tying the knot of the red tie......"

In the carriage, such lyrics came from the headphones with music on the side, Liang Yu looked through the window, looking at the floating light outside the window, and his heart seemed to have returned to a long time ago.

Once upon a time, I was also riding in a car like this, running around. At that time, "Chess Soul" had not yet started to be created, and she was a newcomer who didn't know anything, so she could only rely on the courage of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, and took the work that she now seemed to be extremely ashamed of to a magazine that was the best in her opinion at that time.

Then, I met Chen Nan.

The girl whose painting skills broke her heart, if it weren't for the fact that her painting really made Liang Yu sigh to herself, then Liang Yu, who stubbornly wanted to break through the world on her own, might not agree to the suggestion of cooperating with others. Now that I think about it, maybe some things are doomed.

Thinking of this, Liang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, she has her persistence, Chen Nan has Chen Nan's pride, this kind of thing itself is not right or wrong, some, it's just that the direction of progress is different.

The road that used to go hand in hand, and now, in the face of the fork in the road, the two have chosen different directions, although there are shortcomings, but it is indeed according to their respective hopes, as long as they don't retreat, maybe they will meet again at the next fork.

Liang Yu is so convinced.

Combing the two braids tied at the back of his head with his hands, Liang Yu grabbed the sunhat that was gently leaning on his body with his hands and buckled it on his head, adjusted the angle, and then grabbed his bag.

"Well, I'll get off at the next stop."

I remember that when Chen Nan moved to Qiunan, it was the house that Editor Guo helped find, and Liang Yu also accompanied Chen Nan at that time, after all, this studio is half of Liang Yu's.

There was still a key to the studio in his pocket, and after the landlord gave the key, he had a total of two, one for Chen Nan and one for himself.

Although I say that I have only come here a handful of times, and most of the time I don't have to open the door by myself.

“……”

Liang Yu, who was standing at the door of the studio, gave up knocking on the door, took out the key in his pocket, and then gently inserted it into the keyhole.

Scare her a little.

Liang Yu saved such a dark belly.

Tiptoeing open the door and gently taking off his shoes, Liang Yu spied in the direction of the studio.

The porch of this room is connected to the main hall, so you can see inside without much effort.

The studio was very quiet, just like Chen Nan said on the phone, the assistants didn't come today, and Chen Nan was the only one in the room that was not particularly spacious, painting on her special elevated main table.

One stroke at a time, concentrate.

Liang Yu didn't intend to alarm her, so he slowed down his pace and slowly leaned over.

Chen Nan quickly dragged out clean and concise lines with a pen on the original manuscript paper that had been typed with line drawings, and Liang Yu's level was not enough in the past, so she only felt that Chen Nan's paintings were very clean and beautiful, but when she herself began to serialize "Friends' Account", she felt more and more the gap contained in it.

Shoujo manga is mostly based on thin pens and round pens. And Chen Nan uses the most, but it is the most difficult to master of all the pen kits, but also all-encompassing G pen, G pen is good, it can imitate any kind of nib strokes, and the drawn lines are thick and thin according to different needs, this is why the current CG industry is so developed, but many cartoonists only use a pen tablet to draw color inserts, but the main body of the comic insists on using pen ink lines.

Liang Yu has been in contact with and learning comics for more than a year now, but she still can't use the G pen well, because the power of the nib is large, and an increase in the amount of ink will ruin a painting, and vice versa. The Friends Account is a comic that is brilliant with a story, or female readers have a special tolerance for the picture, so Liang Yu's scummy picture quality works still have a good response, and even sell well.

But as long as you observe Chen Nan's painting, from dipping in ink and drawing lines in one go, there are no paused stains where the brushstrokes meet, as if it is natural, how much effort and persistence has gone through this, perhaps only Chen Nan himself knows.

Liang Yu stood like this for a long time, and it wasn't until Chen Nan called her that she came back to her senses.

"Since you're here, just squeak." Chen Nan finished drawing a sketch, and when she looked up, she found Liang Yu standing next to her, and said angrily.

"Squeak."

“……”

The two of them glanced at each other, and even Chen Nan couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips.

seemed to realize that this expression was not suitable for him, and soon, Chen Nan deliberately raised his face: "It's useless to sell cuteness, I called you over today just to call you." ”

"Understand, if Teacher Chen Nan has any requirements, try to tell the small ones." Liang Yu saluted funny and said.

"Then I'm welcome, Mr. Liangyu, please black out the places where these originals are marked with X, and the places that need to be pasted with backgrounds should be labeled according to the online store on the numbered card.

The basic skill of blacking out is not difficult for Liang Yu, but Chen Nan said that she was stunned for a moment when she was stunned by the number of card outlets: "May I ask Mr. Chen Nan, are the network cards a few or all of them?" ”

"I've collected almost all the outlets sold on the market here, can you still remember the corresponding number of the outlet card, Mr. Liangyu? This is the foundation of a manga artist. ”

Not to mention, Liang Yu really can't remember the number of the outlets, and because many of her backgrounds and textures are handled by Xiaolin and them, even if she has to do it herself, Liang Yu also finds some outlets with matching images from some outlets paper according to her personal interests and pastes them.

Seeing the stack of dot paper taken out of Chen Nan's drawer, Liang Yu's forehead began to sweat.

Chen Nan, who seemed to have seen through this a long time ago, sighed, and no longer embarrassed Liang Yu, and took the outlet's and background number from the shelf behind him and handed it to Liang Yu: "Do it according to this, it's okay, otherwise there will be no salary." ”

"Yes, Teacher Chen Nan."

Secretly sticking out his tongue behind his back, Liang Yu held a pile of dot paper and manuscripts, sat in the assistant's position, opened the inkwell, took the blackened brush from the pen holder, and lay on the table to draw seriously.

Chen Nan, on the other hand, turned around and went to the kitchen, made a cup of tea, and put it in front of Liang Yu's shore.

Then he glanced at Liang Yu's painting and commented: "That's good, Teacher Liangyu, the skill of moving the pen is becoming more and more proficient." ”

However, the serious Liang Yu did not listen to this sentence.

Chen Nan smiled faintly, and did not call Liang Yu, but returned to his painting table, picked up the pen and continued to draw on the original paper.

For a moment, the whole room fell silent, only the sound of the tip of the pen touching the paper and the time flowed silently.
