The essence is the same as that of an illustrator, which belongs to the profession that is not enough to be a traditional painter and is the next best thing.
No matter how good it can be.
Levi took a sip of coffee.
I am used to drinking tea recently, and the taste of this coffee is not as good as before.
Speaking of which, Big Boss's tea is really good.
Are you also a hidden tea lover?
But thinking of his mother's super high evaluation of the tea he sent back, he knew in his heart that it wasn't that he fell in love with tea from then on, but simply fell in love with the tea from the big boss.
He also tried ordinary tea, but it still didn't meet his taste.
It seems that I have to find a chance to go to the big boss again.
I don't know if the big boss still has that kind of tea, if there is, I will ask for more.
Feeling the taste of coffee that turned from bitter to fragrant in his mouth, Li Wei said:
"This time I brought my friend's work, you can take a look."
With that said, Li Wei took out a few pieces of paper.
These are some of the illustrations for Gulliver's Travels that he took time to draw.
Although he has Xinghe's vest, he already has two comic works.
But to be honest, the high-level production of just one episode is obviously unconvincing.
And the level of drawing skills in other words is not even as good as those first-class illustrators that Zhou Lan showed him before.
After all, he is a first-class illustrator, and he is still of a certain standard.
Although it is not as good as the elite level, the level is not much different.
Zhou Lan took the illustration dubiously, and when she opened it, she saw a cover art.
The background of the picture is a fantasy city, but it is like a hodgepodge, showing the characteristics of various chapters of "Gulliver's Travels".
Normally, this hodgepodge can easily feel disorganized.
But through the layout of the scenes, the design of the space, and the exquisite painting skills, the painter completely brings people into it.
Zhou Lan's pupils shrank.
With her eyesight, she could tell at a glance that this was definitely a top-notch painting.
She quickly turned to the next page.
This time, it shows the plot illustration of Lilliputian.
The huge Gulliver was lying on the beach, surrounded by countless small people laughing and laughing around him.
There are guards with swords, children who are cautiously tempting, and creatures who want to climb on Gulliver. Even the expressions seem to be vivid.
Seeing this, Zhou Lan was completely shocked.
"How is it possible, this is the illustrator?
There can be no such illustrator! "
Zhou Lan said in a voiceless voice.
With this level of painting skills, why not be a respected traditional painter, but a hardworking illustrator.
If a traditional painter is inspired, one painting may allow him to eat and drink for several years. Although the threshold is high, the standard of this painter is definitely up to the standard.
"Which painter is this?"
Zhou Lan looked at Li Wei.
Li Wei laughed:
"It's not a painter either, it's the work of a cartoonist.
You probably haven't heard of his name, but he is quite famous for his cartoons, one of which is called "The Prince of Tennis". "
He didn't say "[-] Centimeters Per Second".
Although "[-] Centimeters Per Second" is his first work.
But at that time, he was a newcomer after all, which also made "[-] Centimeters Per Second" far less famous than "The Prince of Tennis".
And he felt that Zhou Lan probably hadn't heard of the names of these two works.
After all... As a novel editor, of course I read more novels.
But after Zhou Lan heard Li Wei's words, she stared at him.
"This is Teacher Xinghe's work?
Do you know Teacher Xinghe? "
After two consecutive questions, Li Wei raised his eyebrows.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Lan actually knew the vest of Xinghe.
nodded and said:
"Well, our relationship is okay."
Zhou Lan sighed suddenly.
"I don't know much about "The Prince of Tennis", but "[-] Centimeters Per Second" is my favorite.
During this period of time, I heard on the Internet that Teacher Xinghe's painting skills are actually very good, but I still don't believe it.
When I saw these illustrations, I knew that it was really like this. "
Levi had a smile on his face.
No matter what, he was in a good mood to be praised.
Thinking of this just now, Zhou Lan's expression suddenly turned ferocious.
"Teacher Ye Jingqiu, since you are a friend of the old thief Xinghe, please tell me a word."
