Whenever I tried them, my pictures would come out terrible. So I've stuck with just... NOT using them for my many years of drawing. But I'd love to be able to do them properly because I know how much they'd really help. One of the things I don't understand is how to keep the sizing so consistent. When I see people use guidelines, they just use lines and shapes and such and the finish product comes out like it should, with the limbs and everything being the size they should be and were in the pictures previous to it. The face is in the right position, etc.... Ah, man. I really wish I knew how to explain things better...
Your style is very attractive, by the way.
I just had the same problem before. When I tried the guidelines, it didn't look weel at the end of the process, so I just stopped trying.
But now that I'm a little better in drawing, I have more knowledge about proportions and stuff, you know. And little by little, I try to use a few of the guidelines, because I suddenly understood something, so now I can use it.
So my advice is : don't force it. Don't try to make it right at the first try. Just try to pick the things that really help you, and sometimes try again to add other things...
I don't know if this can help you, but well, good luck !^^
(and sorry for my horrible english)
