What is the trick to copying Bargue plates?
Does Anyone know of a good guide or tutorial?

Look up Charles Bargue and Jean-Léon Gérôme's course book

Just visually measure shit. There is no easy way out if you want to draw well.
He tells you exactly how to do it over about 5 pages before all the plates. Do you have the pdf or just jpg of the plates? Also helps a lot to print it out and have it next to your drawing rather than looking at it on a screen

I'm wasn't even sure how to start the whole thing because one of the requirements is to copy them 'life size' (which means from A3 pages I guess); and as I live in a turd world country I'm unaware of any shop which has a printer that can manage prints that big. The trick I thought up is to load the pictures on my TV, I hope that will be good enough

use 2 A4?

hey loading them to the tv could be pretty cool desu.
you either use the sight size method or comparative measurement. I prefer the latter but then again I've never tried the sight size method.
