Chapter 846 Preparations

After Shen Xin arranged the purchased furniture and instruments, the next step was to install the glass doors.

The 12th floor of the whole building is where Xi Muhan and Shen Xin live, the 11th floor is the studio, the 10th floor is the library, and the 7th, 8th, and 9th floors are the residences of the assistants, Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei.

The elevator can only go to the ninth floor, and the ninth floor is sealed by a glass door, and you need to swipe your card to get in and out.

The reason for this design is also to ensure a quiet working environment. After all, the 7th to 9th floors are where the assistants live, and it is easy to generate noise.

Similarly, Ji Yinxuan's studio also installed soundproof glass doors for the purpose of quietness.

In addition, the studio also needs to be redesigned, divided into three parts with soundproof glass, one is the work area of ​​Shen Xin and Xi Muhan, the other is the work area of ​​Wang Wenhong and Yan Fei, and the last is the place where the assistants work.

During the decoration process, the assistants had to go to another room on the same floor to practice painting skills.

As for Shen Xin, in her own residence, she vacated a separate study room for painting.

The illustration of "Steins;Gate" needs to be drawn, but he also needs to prepare comics related to "basketball".

When mentioning basketball comics, the first thing Shen Xin thought of was Haruka Tamagawa's "Slam Dunk". At that time, the average sales volume of that comic in District 11 was nearly one million copies, and it was a veritable best-selling comic.

On Earth, there are several famous basketball comics.

The most famous is "" (Slam Dunk), a famous cartoonist in the 11th district, Inoue Takehiko. This work has only 31 volumes, and the total sales volume of the single book has exceeded 100 million. Thousands of volumes, ranking second in the 11 district volume rankings, is a veritable hall-level comics, and the real ceiling of sports themes.

In addition, the more famous one is "Kuroko's Basketball" by Tadatoshi Fujimaki. The average volume should be around one million copies. One of the characteristics of this manga is that the athletes have special abilities. Ryota's "perfect imitation", or Akashi Seijuro's "Eye of the Emperor" and "Center of Gravity Destruction" are special skills of athletes. This unique style has really attracted a large number of readers.

In a sense, the styles of "Heizi's Basketball" and "The Prince of Tennis" are somewhat similar.

In addition to these two basketball manga, there is another little-known manga, "Basketball Boy" by Hiroki Yagami, which is equally good.

Among these three comics, "" has the highest achievement and is also the most difficult.

If she draws "Sunspot's Basketball", Shen Xin doesn't need to deliberately practice her drawing skills, she can just use her previous drawing skills. In terms of character creation and action drawing, "" is more difficult, so that even if Shen Xin has a comic capsule, she still feels pressure to change her style in a short time.

When traveling, Shen Xin also thought about this question repeatedly, but in the end she chose "" which is more difficult.

Since he has a manga capsule, he must make full use of it, otherwise, it will be wasteful.

Furthermore, he also felt a sense of crisis.

This sense of crisis does not come from a cartoonist, but from himself. The number of comics he will draw in the future is limited. To put it short, he may draw two or three more comics, and to say more, it is no more than three or five.

That being the case, definitely go for the best sports comics.

After being confirmed, Shen Xin started various preparations. When traveling, in addition to drawing the coloring pages and illustrations of "Steins;Gate", he also picked up sketches and sketches to prepare for drawing comics in the future.

It is not difficult for those who are interested to find that when Takehiko Inoue drew "", his painting skills have been improving all the time, just like Takeshi Obata drew "Soul of Chess". In the first few episodes, the character's clothes may even feel unfit, but after that, many actions are classic.

In contrast, another basketball manga by Inoue Takehiko, the style at the beginning of "real",

It is more inclined to the later period of "".

However, how easy is it to reach that level in one step?

Even Shen Xin felt a lot of pressure, half a year of preparation time, I don't know if it would be enough.

Considering that the times are different, Huaxia and District 11 are also different. The students' school uniforms and comic backgrounds all need to be redrawn. This requires Shen Xin to go to various schools to take pictures. In addition, he also needs to take some photos of the streets and scenery—— In "", the background that readers talk about is not only the basketball stadium, but also the classic streets and the sea.

It seems that back in Hongchuan, there are a lot of things to deal with, such as taking pictures, only Shen Xin knows what scenery is needed, and there is more than one school in "" and he may have to find a different school.

In addition, he had to pay attention to the school uniforms of each school.

Shen Xin can draw it purely by imagination, but it can't be too far-fetched - in Huaxia of this world, every school has different uniforms, which is good news.

It's decided to go out to shoot a scene, and Wang Wenhong is definitely inseparable, who told Shen Xin that she can't drive.

"I knew it, I can't run away." Wang Wenhong raised his head and took a deep breath.

"Don't be depressed, I'm also here to draw better comics." Shen Xin patted Wang Wenhong's shoulder and said with a light smile, "Don't forget, the success of "Soul of Chess" was inseparable from the photos of those dojos."

"I'm just talking casually. As long as I can draw good cartoons, I'm fine even if I travel all over China, let alone going to a few schools." Wang Wenhong patted his chest, full of confidence.

"Sister Yan, I'll trouble you to accompany Xiaohan for the past two days." Shen Xin smiled at Yan Fei, "Didn't disturb your date?"

"Who will date her?" Yan Fei immediately retorted without thinking.

Wang Wenhong also frowned, a little upset, seeing Yan Fei glaring at him, Wang Wenhong responded unceremoniously.

Xi Muhan's attention fell on another matter.

"Brother, are you going out?"

"yes?"

"Where are you going?" Xi Muhan asked again.

"Where else can I go? Yunhai No. 1 Middle School, my alma mater." Shen Xin stretched her muscles, "I want to draw a school with a basketball court, but many schools only have outdoor basketball courts. I remember that No. 1 Middle School has a basketball court."

"But, isn't Yizhong used in "Y's"?"

"How many buildings are used in "Y's"? Besides, it's been so long, maybe No. 1 Middle School has been renovated?"

"But, Hongchuan also has such a school?"

"The school in Hongchuan is definitely indispensable. Also, haven't you watched the news recently? This year's high school basketball league will be held in the sea of ​​clouds. I want to step on the playing field."

Xi Muhan blinked her eyes and shook her head, she really didn't care about these things.
