Xiao Bai's ancient figures are hand-painted in lead.
I got a box of colored lead, so I want to try it. The following are the steps of my first painting of colored lead antique figures. Without any theoretical guidance, it is purely entertainment and is shared with everyone.
tools need a set of colored lead, a pencil, an eraser and a sketch paper.
Step 1: First, lightly draw the general image of the person you want to draw on the paper with a pencil. Be careful not to use too much force, and don't let the pencil marks damage the smoothness of the paper.
Step 2: Erase the pencil marks with an eraser, and then draw the outline of the task with black lead. I like to draw the eyes of the characters first, and pay attention to the eyes, otherwise the drawn characters will look fake.
Step 3: Start spreading the first layer of color, and patiently draw your hair one by one.
step 4: start laying the second layer of color, and pay attention to the connection between colors, so that the two colors can naturally cross together and form a transitional color, which looks more natural. At this time, in the middle of the black hair, a layer of dark silver was spread to show the luster of the hair.
Step 5: Look for the hidden colors in the picture, such as the blue color of the hair due to reflection, the dark green and ochre color in the shadow part of the leaves, and the grass green color in the bright part. You should patiently draw the hair one by one several times, and try to use different colors such as black, dark brown, dark gray and light gray. This way, the hair will be layered. Pay attention to the direction of hair, especially the bun of ancient figures is more complicated, and the direction of hair will be more complicated.
step 6: improve other parts. Generally speaking, it should be a whole painting layer by layer, but my personal habit is to draw parts first, such as my eyes, then my face, and finally my hands and clothes. Note that people's faces and hands are tonal. I have seen some people think that the color of paper is white, and the face of people is white, so they simply don't paint any color on their faces. In fact, think about who's face is as white as paper, so the color of face is necessary. Use light pink, dark orange and flesh color to complete the light and dark part of the whole face.
Step 7: After you finish it, deepen all the colors several times. Don't worry that the darker the colors, the more vivid the characters you draw.
This is my first colored lead painting. Although I was laughed at by a friend and said that it was similar to his little daughter's painting, I still like it very much.
To make a few digressions, I am a person who likes to fiddle with everything. I like singing, drawing, reading aloud and reading books, making handicrafts, embroidering and decorating designs, and I like all kinds of exquisite and unusual things that are ingenious and patient and take time to complete.
When I was a child, I liked writing. I once dreamed of being a writer for a living, but my father, who is a Chinese teacher, told me that writing would starve to death, and it would be safe to study honestly, enter a university, and go to work in a big enterprise or government.
no one expected that since the rise of the media, many writers have finally caught up with the trend.
When I was in high school, I was obsessed with biology. I didn't have enough textbooks to read. Every time I took a casual look at the biology exam, I could get the first place in the provincial key. The school sent staff to participate in the Bio-Olympic Competition. It is said that the person who won the ranking will be walked. I don't want to walk, I really like biology. I wanted to sign up, but the biology teacher didn't agree, and told me earnestly that your grades would definitely be focused, and the Olympics would have to keep training and stop taking cultural classes, which was tantamount to gambling. They bet on bad grades. Your grades are so good, there is no need.
believing the teacher's words, I gave up the idea of taking part in the competition. Later, several students who took part in the competition were sent to Fudan University for the worst, and Tsinghua for the best, all of whom studied biology. And I did go to a key university, and I learned a major that I was not interested in by mistake. From then on, it has nothing to do with my favorite biology.
I don't blame my father and this teacher. They gave me advice based on their life experience. Although it is the sense of dignity of their social roles that makes me feel compelled to pay attention to their suggestions, in the final analysis, I have no ideas, not to mention that I was too young at that time. Many people knew that they should go their own way from a very young age, for fear that others would not support or value it.
because I insist on myself, I am willing to win or lose.
