God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 598

Why didn't these guests who came to watch the ceremony dare to get closer?

Very simple three-dimensional visual effect. From a distance, this huge lion is just a lazy lion lying on a rock basking in the sun and taking a nap. Naturally, it doesn't look deterrent; but when you get close, you can see it The sharp claws hidden under the soles of the forefoot will naturally feel threatened.

In addition, when approaching, if you raise your head slightly and meet the half-squinted eyes of the male lion, you will feel a little fear.

This is not because the lion's eyes are so sharp, but because human beings have a natural fear of eyes or eye-shaped patterns and objects. The more vivid patterns and objects, the stronger the psychological pressure on people. With appropriate patterns or colors, it is easy to trigger the instinctive fear hidden in the bottom of my heart.

Many works of art use this principle, especially in the artistic creation of religious themes, a pair of lifelike eyes, coupled with appropriate environmental adjustments, can give people an experience of mystery, power, majesty, ferociousness, and death.

Many people have entered the temple, and when they visit the statues in the temple, they will have a feeling that they dare not look into the eyes of the statues, or they will have the experience of being watched by certain eyes, because most people do not understand this principle, Naturally, there will be a kind of cognition that the statue has a spirit, and the deeper this cognition is, the stronger this feeling will be.

This is how many metaphysics people say, "Believe it, you have it, or you don't believe it, you don't have it." Even if it is only half-believing, this effect will be more obvious.

Xu Jingxing really didn't know much about these things before, and these principles were indeed relatively mysterious 20 years ago, only in the hands of a very few people.

But with the development of the times, in this era of highly transparent information technology, this is no secret, as long as you have the heart, you can find it with a search on the Internet.

He learned this knowledge from the Internet and carried it forward, and it happened last year. Last year, he used his original experience to carve a "spiritual" statue of Lu Zu. That effect is also based on the experience passed down by the predecessors, and the specific principle is really not very thorough.

But after finishing it, he searched the Internet himself, and he understood it thoroughly.

Of course, the knowledge on the Internet is not ready-made. He knows this principle from a translated foreign scientific research paper. The paper mainly studies how human beings have the feeling of fear, which involves the totem Produced, and highlighted your snake eyes in the snake totem, saying that eye-shaped patterns and objects can make people instinctively fear.

When he saw this paper, he was still a little confused, but he continued to search along this theory, and more relevant materials were presented to him one by one, including analytical literature on religious art.

These bits and pieces of knowledge may seem messy, but they gave him a more complete understanding of this form of artistic expression, allowing him to apply these skills in new artistic creations.

To put it bluntly, his craft has improved again.

No, he applied this principle to this root carved lion sculpture. When depicting the two eyes, he also used a little micro-sculpture technique to carve out the pupil and the inside of the eyeball in the half-closed eyes. The texture is as realistic as possible.

Of course, he didn't have the opportunity to observe the lion's eyeballs with a magnifying glass, but he could learn from human eyeballs. For this reason, he did not miss the Xuanyang Taoist priest as the object of observation.

Moreover, when the sculpture is finished and waxed, the special body polishes the wax layer of the lion's two eyeballs thicker to create a moist and transparent eyeball. This effect is naturally more realistic and vivid, so that When the guests watching the ceremony suddenly met such a pair of eyes, they were naturally frightened and stood still.

Being stared at by such a lion suddenly, who is not dumbfounded?

But after these people stood there for a moment, they suddenly started applauding in unison. The applause continued for more than a minute. Most of these people may not have the ability to appreciate art, but it is human instinct to distinguish between good and bad. Beauty is not a language, but a sense of identity contained in the bones.

Obviously, these people recognized the root lion carving and the craftsmanship.

Xu Jingxing didn't applaud, but stood in the crowd with a smile on his face, but hearing the thunderous applause, if he said he wasn't excited, he must be fooling the ghost.

But he was someone who had been on CCTV and was praised by seniors like Lian Yunhai, so naturally he would not lose his composure in front of such a small scene, and his airs were very stable.

He could handle it, but his friends were happier than him, especially the old man Zhou Zhenshan, who was so happy that his mouth almost reached the back of his head. Then he jumped up and down and clapped his hands, his little face was flushed and it was really cute.

An Xin's appearance is similar, although she tried her best to put on airs and pretend to be modest, but after all, she is not very old. Although her face is sullen, the smile in her eyes is almost condensed into honey - this root carved lion also has her credit. Can you be unhappy?

Not to mention peace of mind, even Zhao Changfa couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear with joy. His dark face was glowing red, and those who didn't know thought that the old man's withered tree was in spring.

Others who knew Xu Jingxing were equally happy. After applauding, they gathered around like Xu Jingxing to say congratulations. They praised him endlessly, and even those who didn't know him gathered around, just to meet the famous little Master Xu——Little Master Xu is now on the island. The city's reputation is not small.

Xu Jingxing is not humble at all, there is nothing to be modest about, not to mention that this root carved lion is different from the Litang Resort in Kecheng. The Litang Resort was built by Ding Shuhuai, and he is just a relatively important participant. As the number two person, even if he has the most credit, he is only one of the creators.

But he was the only one who was the main creator of this root carved lion, and An Xin and Zhao Changfa were just playing along. Now, those critics have no excuse to say that he hugged his thigh.

So he didn't need to be modest at all, he smiled and shook hands with those who came over, and greeted with luggage. After a long time of excitement, he calmed down under the reminder of Taoist Xuanyang and others, because there was the most important ceremony-the consecration.

This is a feng shui prop, not an ordinary carving. A carving that has not passed the consecration ceremony is not a qualified feng shui prop. Even if it is just for psychological comfort, this ceremony is indispensable.What's more, Hu Dacheng asked for this ceremony, so everyone quickly quieted down.
