I visited your web page and saw that you have a lot of different art projects in the works. I have also noticed a lot of improvement especially in the last while. Your charcoal value studies are excellent and your one color studies are up there as well.
As for the Bargue exercises they are amassing teachers if only they are executed correctly. Many artists of today even some academy trained artists still have not fully grasped the value of th Bargue plates. I will give you a hint. The extent and the benefit you will understand if you complete the exercises properly. Four plates, that is all, and your minds eye will see thing you never thought possible.
Your set up looks good. Start of first by marking the top of the fut and the bottom. I stress the importance of these first marks to be level with the original copy. Why? Because later on when you glance back and forth from drawing to the copy this will help you to see if you are of or not. If the alignment is off, in the setup, then your mind needs to adjust in order for you to see your mistakes. I think you know this but for the benefit of others I have tried to explain the importance.
Good speed but precision is better.
