Can you just use the pen tool to create lines where you want them.

>is there a better way to undertake this?
I did the same a while ago, I tried using Inkscape for a project and after a couple hours I gave up and went back to Adobe™, Illustrator/Photoshop/InDesign are just reliable and you save yourself headaches and time by working faster and finding tutorials instantly, also if you're making a comic the last thing you want to do is the measures, here's a great description of the process two guys used in the comic watchmen:

OP here, so I powered through it and found the places for the guidelines using the technique described here https://web.archive.org/web/20210612234747/https://andreasaronsson.com/guides/perspective-drawing/divide-into-equal-parts/
I expected to there be something more sophisticated to archive the same results with less work plus I'm not sure how precises is the work I did.
What do you guys think?

Yes.

I just prefer FOSS software and Watchmen is an example of why these types of guidelines are so important since watchmen sticks to a 3 x 3 grid for all its pages.

Good solution, but you’re right there should be an easier way. Can you set guides in your version of Inkscape? It should let you put in the exact location and set a color and label, a lot less work.

I'm sure it can but from what I can see it'll require me to do math to find the X and Y where the line should go.
