The Sabbath

In order to be a competent model, Ronggui deliberately endured for a long time without moving, finally Xiaomei finished painting, he immediately ran over, picked up the painting to have a look.

"It's definitely not me." Ronggui said firmly.

Xiaomei looked at him quietly.

"It's definitely not me!" Ronggui yelled again: "Is my trailer so broken? Is my face so crooked? And... am I so ugly?"

Xiaomei: ...

"Your trailer is really broken, and the right side of your face is tilted 15 degrees." Xiaomei answered Ronggui's first two questions, as for the third...

"If you think it's ugly, well, it should be ugly."

He actually said that? !

Ronggui looked at him dumbfounded.

Xiaomei lowered her head and began to pack her painting tools.

"That...it must be because my pose wasn't good enough. I'll do it again, can you draw another one?" Quickly took out a new piece of paper from the small trailer and handed it to Xiaomei←That's right!Ronggui's trailer just now contained the spoils they went to the stationery store in the afternoon, and the whole thing was in the state of a shopping cart.

Note: Xiaomei faithfully reproduced this shopping cart state on the drawing paper.

"Do it all over again! Anyway, there are still 99 sheets to be drawn! Can I draw one more sheet?" Passing the drawing paper in front of Xiaomei, Ronggui looked at him.

Xiaomei stared at him, put away the drawing paper for a while, and sat down again. It seemed that he was going to continue drawing.

Then Ronggui quickly redesigned his posture, took out the things he bought in the trailer, and wiped the car with a handkerchief... Uh, he wiped his body, and finally found a serious posture and looked at Xiaomei nervously up.

This time, Xiaomei's finished painting was really much better.

"Oh... Sure enough, I am no longer the same person I used to be. I can't use the pose I used to take pictures for magazines..." Looking at the painting in his hand, Ronggui sighed.

"It's a pity that I didn't have much interest in cars back then, and I didn't pay much attention to mechanical impurities, or I could pose for photos according to the photos in those magazines, and the effect could be better." Ronggui concluded.

Then, Ronggui summed up his experience and lessons and changed a few more postures one after another, and after changing it, it was time for his automatic shutdown ← This guy was still setting the alarm clock in his body.

Maintaining a funny posture, his head drooped to the side, and Ronggui fell asleep.

Xiaomei on the opposite side: ...

After finishing the painting in his hand, he checked that the energy in his body was still enough, he paused for a while, and in Ronggui's current posture, he drew another portrait of Ronggui.

At the end, he marked the date and time in the corner of the painting, and he was ready to turn off the phone and charge it.

From then on, Xiaomei was forced to live a life of taking portraits of Ronggui every day.

Ronggui who is sitting, Ronggui who is lying down, Ronggui who is tilting his head, Ronggui who is carrying a basket, profile, back view... In this way, Ronggui allowed Xiaomei to quickly complete part of the homework required for the exam, and with At the same time, he also verified the shortcomings of his usual postures through portraits.

For example, he habitually tilts his head to the right. If this posture is done by a normal person, it may be fine, but Ronggui's right face is a little crooked...

= - =

So this habit has become an unforgivable mistake!

After comparing several portraits and realizing that he has this problem, Ronggui subconsciously tilts his head to the left every day, so that the lack of right cheek is almost invisible!

Think about it carefully, the previous artists are like this~ Through different poses, check the pose that suits you best, so there are many photos of artists who only show their faces~ or only show their silhouettes~

And the reason why I didn't notice this problem until now is that...

That's because my real body is too perfect~

360 degrees without dead angle?

So, sometimes it is too perfect and it is easy for people to ignore a lot of common sense~

Sitting on the bench shaking his head, watching the sunset (light bulb) outside the window, Ronggui summed up his experience while being a model.

And Xiaomei continued to paint behind him.

↑

Today's painting is the back view of Agui under the setting sun.Ronggui specifically asked Xiaomei to draw the windows and the light of the setting sun.

His back looks better than his profile, and his profile looks better than his front—after a few days, Ronggui finally completed his evaluation of his angle for posing.

What a poignant assessment!

However, I have to say that Ronggui has a very high taste and talent in aesthetics. It is only compared with Xiaomei's portrait. His usual subtle movements have changed little by little. According to the portrait, he corrected his various usual movements, and gradually , even the female dwarves noticed a change in him.

"Agui, you...seem to look better recently... have you started replacing body parts?" Reya was the first to ask.

Then Qiqi nodded quickly and often instructed Ronggui to do handwork. She had long felt that Ronggui looked slightly different from before.

Hearing this, Mary and Lily also raised their heads, and they looked at Ronggui.

As dwarves, they are naturally sensitive to machinery, so they quickly confirmed that Ronggui's parts had not been changed or refurbished.

Letting the female dwarves look at him curiously, Ronggui turned around, and finally turned around: "There is no replacement part~ All the points we earned before have paid the registration fee and material fee for the craftsman certificate, so there is no need The money to buy body parts!"

Seeing more and more doubts in the eyes of the female dwarves, Ronggui said: "Actually, I just changed the details of the usual posture."

Ronggui said, and quickly adjusted the angle of his standing posture. He just twisted his waist and changed the position of the trailer. However, in the eyes of the female dwarves, he was completely different from before. That crappy little robot!

This time, even Reya was surprised.

"This...how did you do it?"

"It's about the angle of the camera. Didn't Lili say that she had seen Guta Tre* two days ago?" Ronggui said without further ado.

Lily nodded.

*Note: Guttatre is the male dwarf who played a supporting role in "The Ax and Romance". He visited Yedehan City a while ago. Star chasing.

"Didn't you say that Guta Tre is much uglier than on TV, and he is not as petite and fat as on TV?" Ronggui asked her.

"Yes, yes~" Lily nodded angrily.

"This is the angle of the pose." Ronggui said, drawing a frame in the air with his right hand: "The camera lens is a frame, and the angles of the people in the frame are slightly different. It’s a big change. Most actors have to go through this kind of training, as long as they take enough pictures and listen to the photographer, they can sum up their best angles.”

"If it's taking pictures or filming a TV series, the actors can control the angle very well because the camera lens is fixed. Senior actors can maintain the best angle even when they are moving."

"However, it's different in front of the audience. Actors become three-dimensional, and they can't decide from which angle they are seen. When the audience stands in their dead angle, they naturally feel that they don't look as good as they do on TV."

"So... last time I was standing...in that blind spot?" Lily pointed to herself.

"That's right!" Ronggui nodded.

Lily nodded receptively.

Seeing that the other female dwarves also began to understand a little bit, Ronggui immediately began to talk about himself: "In the past few days, I have changed my bad posture a little bit, and only turned my best angle towards you, although other things I haven't changed, but you think I've become more beautiful."

"My front is the ugliest. Didn't you notice that I haven't faced you in the past few days?" Ronggui said, and purposely showed the four female dwarves one by one as a demonstration.

During the transfer, when his face was unavoidably seen by others, he raised his hand, so that others saw half of his face again.

That's fine too - I only noticed this secret when Ronggui reminded me, and the four female dwarves stared at Ronggui in astonishment.

After carefully turning around Ronggui twice, the eyes of the female dwarves were full of interest and curiosity.

"Agui, how did you find out about this? Why haven't you seen you do this before?" Mary asked him in amazement.

"Isn't there no dead ends before..." Thinking of his previous body, Ronggui sighed, and then answered Mary's second question: "As for why I suddenly remembered to change it now, it's still thanks to Xiaomei's exam."

"Didn't Xiaomei go to take the exam for the craftsman qualification certificate? We simply applied for the third level. We took the exam last weekend. There were a lot of exams in it and we didn't finish it. We had to draw [-] portraits! No, buy good materials , Xiaomei started to paint my portrait that night, she drew all the poses, and I checked after the drawing, no, after checking and checking, did I find that my posture is really problematic?"

Sigh, Ronggui said.

"Oh, I've also heard that the exam items for a third-level craftsman are difficult. In addition to the on-site exam, there are follow-up items. I didn't expect that the item you got was to draw [-] portraits. I heard it once..." Like Xiaomei, who is also an examinee, Reya first commented on the items of the qualification certificate examination, and then said: "It turns out that the portrait can still find this, which is great!"

Seeing the other three female dwarves looking at him enviously, the light bulb in Ronggui's mind suddenly lit up again:

"Otherwise, let Xiaomei paint portraits for you too?"

"Drawing all day long, I might be called lazy by the examiner later. Anyway, he has to hand in [-] pictures. Why don't you ask him to draw for you too!"

"Really? That would be great!"

So, at that time, Xiaomei, who was still pulling the bellows in the workshop, had another task of drawing portraits of other female dwarves without knowing it.

That night Ronggui brought four female dwarves to pick up Xiaomei.

The re-visit of the four female dwarves caused a great commotion in the workshop. Ronggui didn't pay attention, they came and left quickly, and there were paper and pens on the cart. I told Xiaomei.

Xiaomei: ...

So, while sitting in the car and going home that day, Xiaomei completed the first portrait for Mary.

It is rare to be a model and ask others to take a portrait of herself. Mary's posture is extremely stiff. Xiaomei perfectly reproduced her stiffness on paper. During the group meeting the next day, Ronggui explained to her the problems of Mary's posture and angle After doing it all over again, when Mary was posing again in the car the next day, her movements were a little better.

First Mary, then Lily, then Kiki, and finally Reya...

There are many kinds of female dwarves in the portraits at home. I have to say that Ronggui’s guidance is successful. In the latest picture, the four female dwarves in the picture smile very naturally. Their movements vary and the degree of smile They are different, but each has its own style, as if you can smell the fragrance of the flowers in their hands through the black and white drawing paper!

Qiqi's dexterity, Xiaomei's kung fu of painting beside her, she bound Xiaomei's previous paintings and made a beautiful cover, so that Ronggui and the others would no longer have to worry about the drawing paper flying around. So, from the next day, the homework that Ronggui brought to the handicraft group every day became Xiaomei's drawing paper. Not only did he bind Xiaomei's drawings, but he also made a big clip with the help of four female dwarves. , the drawing paper is placed inside, like a big booklet, so Xiaomei has a portable picture folder.

The fact that the female dwarves were looking for Xiaomei's portrait was soon known by the male dwarfs in the workshop, and they also saw the portraits of the female dwarfs in Xiaomei's portfolio.

The result I saw——

They desperately begged Xiaomei to help them take portraits!

However, the reasons why the male dwarves ask for portraits are completely different from those of the female dwarves. They just know that the female dwarves will look through Xiaomei’s brochure, hoping that their portrait will appear in the brochure. Maybe one of the female dwarves will find it one day, maybe ...

Just be spotted?

So, in Xiaomei's portrait homework, there are all kinds of male dwarves with bulging muscles again~

They don't paint in vain, and paying points doesn't seem like an act between friends. For dwarves, handmade products are either commodities for sale or gifts between lovers. They will not give these things easily.

What they send are materials, where can every dwarf have some materials at home?In this way, Xiaomei got a lot of good materials by going east and west.

The male dwarves receive materials, while the female dwarves receive various fruits and vegetables.

All kinds of mushrooms, round fruits, and long fruits at home... Gradually piled up two baskets.

In addition to giving a part to the landlord, after saving a certain amount, Ronggui finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Xiaomei, we have so much food now, dig us out from under the floor~ Let our bodies enjoy it too?"

Xiaomei didn't object.

So, that night, two small robots worked together to dig out the freezer under the floor.

Under Ronggui's nervous gaze, Xiaomei adjusted the freezer to the defrosting mode.

Half an hour later, after several months, Ronggui finally saw himself in the freezer again.
