French curves and elipse guides
1:40 PM, Sunday October 18th 2020
Hello everyone,
I have slowly worked my way top to lesson 6, where I can use french curves and elipses. For those of you who have been using them for lesson 6 and beyond, is it worth it?
The biggest weakness I see in them is the fact that there are only so many different elipses on an elipse guide. But when drawing, you have to adapt to exactly what you have - if you made a box of a certain type to carve it into a cylinder, maybe your elipse guide will not have the exact size and degree of the elipse you need. What do you do then?
Are there any good instructions to utilizing french curves/elipse guides?
Which elipse guides/french curves are worth buying?
Thanks in advance,
