How do you use plumb lines to measure correctly?
>>7920299If you're not retarded you can figure it out
>>7920299Even your image shows you a fairly reasonable representation.You find to landmarks and use the space between them as a unit of measurement - it's much like using the head as a unit of measurement in figure drawing. Just make sure the landmarks you use are something your easily able to consistently get back to with changing, else you'll end up with a distorted inaccurate drawing.If you're not doing a 1:1 drawing, in terms of size, then things are a little more difficult, as your initial unit of measurement will just be made up, and the rest will be estimated based on that first measurement (or you will only use that unit).So, for example, if I decided to use the corner of the wood black to the corner of the cup as my first unit of measurement, I'd just draw whatever length on my smaller (or larger) drawing, but if the entire scene was three of those units across, then my drawing would be 3 of my made up unit across. If I decided to make another unit of measurement, like the top of the pumpkin to the bottom of the cup, and it was 2.5 of the wood block measurement, then I make the new drawing measurement 2.5 times my made up unit of measurement, etc.if you ARE doing 1:1, it's a lot easier, with you literally just putting your measuring stick against the paper after the measurement (ensure your arm is outstretched to the same length as when you made the measurement).There are also tools for this as well, that can even make your measurements bigger or smaller for your drawing.
>>7920299Eyeballing triangulations is the superior system.

>>7920299maybe actually try out the techniques before trying to find holes in them>but i don't want to waste my time!you're posting on /ic/
>>7920557find triangles (with your eyeballs)
thread is full of fortnite generation retards so i must step inplumb lines are used to find where different parts of a subject align on a vertical or horizontal axis, e.g. the chin lines up with the crotch and the back heel of the left foot. now you know where these parts are and how they relate and they also serve as reference points for subsequent measurementsto train your observation, you should make judgments by eye first then check with a plumb line

>>7920299Just draw you fucking retard.
>>7920557You put triangles on your eyeballs.
