I'm not sure how you call them, I just call them orthogonal grids, so orto grids lol. Pic related.
Well if you really need accuracy and drawing for life, yep, measuring is gonna be key.
Nonetheless the more you draw, the better you get at observation and gauging proportions without active measuring, but doing it consciously would make you learn it faster. So yeah, go for it. I guess if you fail, venting is alright but what you should do today is go back to what you did yesterday, fresh, and try and fix it. That helps me out. Take a few brakes between measuring things, and look at them back again. Sometimes we get caught in fixing a side or a line and we just end up making things worse.
Ho, well I think to me the toughest part from what you want to learn about is probably textures, for the landscape bits, those things really terrify me. I can't wrap my head around making them look right yet simplifying enough to not overwork things.
Good luck to us both I guess.
