The drawing that Lu Yu drew on the cotton cloth was the embryonic form of a phoenix that was about to spread its wings!
One had to know that phoenixes were auspicious beasts that only existed in myths and legends. Generally speaking, the image depicted was very gorgeous and complicated.
One could imagine how difficult it was to draw such a line on the cotton cloth without making any mistakes.
However, that was what Lu Yu was doing now.
F * ck, Little Brother Lu's hands are really steady. These lines are so smooth.
What did Brother Lu study? I, an art student, feel that my hands are not as stable as this
I feel more and more like the streamer is a treasure. Is there anything in the world that he can't do?
Upstairs, the host doesn't know how to make Tan Yang ointment.
While everyone was discussing fervently, Lu Yu was still focused on drawing.
In fact, he had never studied art professionally. The reason why he could draw such complicated and wonderful drawings was because the grandmaster-level carpenter skill he had previously obtained also came with the auxiliary skill of drawing.
After all, if one wanted to make beautiful furniture or exquisitely carved decorations, they would need to draw patterns.
There was essentially no difference between drawing on wood and drawing on cotton.
As for the design, Lu Yu had already thought of it last night.
For this reason, he even went online to search for many pictures and paintings of phoenixes. Finally, he sketched out such a shape in his mind.
With the help of a grandmaster-level skill, it was not difficult for Lu Yu to draw this pattern. Unfortunately, the lines of the pattern were too complicated. It took Lu Yu nearly half an hour to finish drawing it.
After sealing the last stroke perfectly, Lu Yu stood up and let out a long sigh. Looking at the drawing in front of him, he was extremely satisfied.
At this moment, everyone in the live broadcast room was petrified.
It turned out that it was really possible to draw such a beautiful phoenix without missing a single stroke!!
After the drawing was done, the beeswax on the other side was probably almost ready.
Lu Yu walked to the side of the earthen charcoal furnace and opened the lid of the small copper pot. The beeswax inside had completely melted and turned into a very clear yellow liquid. At the bottom, there were still some impurities that could be seen.
Lu Yu picked up the small copper pot and returned to the house. He found a fine sieve and placed a basin of ice water under it.
He placed the sieve on the basin of cold water and opened the lid. Lu Yu slowly poured out the pale yellow beeswax liquid inside.
The mesh of the sieve was very fine, and the tiny impurities were blocked outside. The melted beeswax leaked into the ice water basin below. The moment it came into contact with the ice water, it condensed into a light yellow lump.
"The reason why I put ice water below is because if I pour it directly into other containers, a part of the beeswax will stick to the walls of the container. It's not easy to clean and will be a little wasteful.
In this way, the beeswax would directly condense into a lump and be taken out directly. It was convenient and not wasteful.”
When someone asked why the beeswax was poured into the ice water, Lu Yu sifted it and answered.
The beeswax in the basin looks so smooth and has a good texture. I want to touch it.
I like this kind of useless but interesting little knowledge.
He sifted out all the impurities in the small copper pot. Finally, five large pieces of solid beeswax lay in the ice water.
He took the beeswax out of the cold water basin and dried it with kitchen paper. Then, he washed the small copper pot and walked out again with a few porcelain bowls.
"The next step is to seal the wax on the cotton cloth that has just been drawn.”
Lu Yu filled the small copper pot with hot water and removed the heat insulation net on the carbon stove.
After putting the beeswax into a porcelain bowl and heating it to melt, it turned into a yellow liquid again.
He carefully poured the wax into the specially made crayons. Lu Yu turned around and walked to the table. He held the crayons and began to wax the cotton cloth that had just been painted.
"Everyone knows that when dyeing cloth, you need to put the entire cloth into a container with colored water. This way, all parts will be contaminated by the colored water.”
"If you want to leave a pattern, you need to ensure that the place where you want the pattern is not dyed. You need something like beeswax.”
Lu Yu asked the drone to choose a suitable close-up angle. As he spread the wax, he said,
"The melted beeswax will quickly penetrate the cotton cloth and then coagulate. The part that is tightly wrapped by the beeswax will no longer be contaminated by the colored water, and naturally will not change color.”
"In this way, after the other parts are dyed, we can obtain the blue-dyed fabric with the previously designed patterns.”
After hearing Lu Yu's explanation, everyone finally understood.
It turned out that it was so complicated to make the fabric have beautiful patterns in the past…
No wonder it was said that this kind of cloth with delicate and complicated patterns could only be enjoyed by dignitaries. Indeed, how could ordinary people afford to wear this kind of complicated and time-consuming cloth?
Even now, very few people can endure to dye a piece of cloth and make clothes to wear
Professor Wang watched the heated discussion with a smile and did not interrupt.
The skills of drawing patterns and waxing were not rare. Many people knew how to do it.
However, there were very few people who could be as skilled as Lu Yu, and even pleasing to the eye.
Perhaps it was because of Lu Yu's leisurely behavior, Professor Wang was no longer as anxious as before and could calm down a little.
It was very easy to wax the part that was covered with paper patterns. After all, even if his hands accidentally spilled it to the side, there was still a white paper to block it. After he was done, he just had to remove the paper.
However, the phoenix pattern beside him was not so simple.
Lu Yu needed to be very careful with the strokes, wax, and white.
If his hand were to shake, this pattern might be destroyed.
Therefore, when Lu Yu looked at the phoenix pattern next to him, everyone's hearts tightened.
Lu Yu refilled the crayons with beeswax and walked to the pattern. He took a deep breath and slowly bent down to start writing.
This time, the netizens in the live broadcast room no longer boasted and joked. Instead, they all cheered Lu Yu on.
Go, Little Brother Lu! You can definitely do it!
Slowly, slowly! We're not in a hurry! Don't ruin the design because you're anxious!
Head, neck, body, wings, tail…
According to the order, every part was carefully covered with beeswax in an orderly manner.
The more they laid out, the more nervous everyone became. They were afraid that Lu Yu would die here and fail at the last step.
Finally, after Lu Yu finished the last stroke, everyone in the live broadcast room burst into cheers at the same time.
He really finished it without any mistakes!
Streamer, you're too amazing. I'm willing to call you the strongest!
"I'm mostly done, but I'm still a little short.”
Lu Yu smiled and walked towards the charcoal stove.
Just a little bit more? What was the difference?
Everyone looked at each other.
They had clearly seen Lu Yu lay out all the patterns on the cotton cloth just now.
Why did he say that he was almost there?
Everyone looked at Lu Yu's actions in confusion.
He walked to the charcoal stove, broke off a small ball of beeswax that had just solidified, and put it into another porcelain bowl to dissolve.
Then, he picked up the jar of red colored paste on the stone table and picked out a little bit with a pick stick. He placed it into the porcelain bowl that dissolved the beeswax and slowly stirred it.
The beeswax quickly turned into a bright red color that was as pure as rubies.
Lu Yu held the bowl of red beeswax and walked to the side of the phoenix pattern that had just been waxed. He picked up another smaller crayon.
Lu Yu dipped it in some red beeswax and began to dot the " eyes " on the phoenix's tail feathers.
F * ck, the streamer is actually doing color dyeing?
Awesome, awesome, this red color immediately became much more vivid.
After lighting the 'eyes' on the nine tail feathers red, Lu Yu bent down and lit the phoenix's eyes and crown, as well as the bead in its mouth with beeswax.
Although there were only a few small changes, the phoenix looked much more vivid than before.
This way, the pattern of the red phoenix holding the pearl was officially completed.
"This can only be considered a little color, not a color dye. The real dyeing process was much more complicated than this.”
Lu Yu saw the bullet screen and shook his head with a smile."The color of this light will be a little lighter after the beeswax falls off, but it's enough to be used as an ornament.”
Looking at the pattern of the red phoenix holding the pearl, Professor Wang was also impressed from the bottom of his heart.
Although he could draw blue-dyed patterns, he was only limited to some simple and common patterns.
He didn't even dare to think about such a difficult task.
This Lu Yu Streamer…is really a strange person!
Lu Yu was also very satisfied with this painting of the Red Phoenix Holding the Pearl.
He took out his phone and looked down at the time. Lu Yu realized that it was almost 10 pm.
After thinking for a moment, he looked up at the drone camera and asked everyone.
"It's almost 10 o'clock now. It's supposed to be late. We've wasted a lot of time tonight, so it's a little chaotic for the cloth dyeing plan that I originally wanted to arrange.”
"Do you want to stay up all night to continue watching, or do you want to wait until tomorrow?”
Because the live broadcast had ended around this time in the evening a few days ago, Lu Yu gave the choice to the audience in the live broadcast room.
Of course I want to see it!
It's only ten o'clock. What's the point of staying up late? I'll take the lead and stay up until dawn!
That's right, that's right. Streamer, if you're not tired, you can consider broadcasting for two more hours every day. We all want to watch it!
He did not expect everyone to choose to continue watching in unison. Lu Yu naturally had no reason to refuse.
He smiled and picked up the largest bottle of indigo cream on the stone table. He said,
"Next, what I want to show everyone is the most beautiful part of the blue dyeing technique.”
