Currently doing this.

It will be hard to do it on your own, imho. If you can, go to a school. ARC website has them. They're fairly affordable for what you get out of it. Plus the model drawing sessions that last for weeks are way better in these schools than elsewhere.

Your alternative is to look through Julie Aristides' books since she covers the atelier training methods.

If you do it by yourself don't discard your work. As you get better come back to old work with more insight and improve it. Your values on your Bargues will be too light or too dark. You can't tell if you are just starting out.

Learn both sight size and comparative measurement. Most schools do both, there's nothing special about either one.

You pay for someone to teach you the steps and critique your work. The work itself is the hardest part and that's all you.

I really can't go to school, I am poor as fuck but I figured that sticking to an atelier program might help with getting better in the way I want. I have been doing sight size but not comparative measurement, so I have to do that aswell. Thanks.

>Did anyone undergo training of this kind, be it with a teacher or alone?


What do you mean by this training alone? Just grinding life drawings everyday?

I'm sure people have done that but it's probably not as good if you don't have someone to point out your mistakes.
