    I'm skint and trying to think of ways to make money and posing nude for Art popped into my head. I've attended life drawing classes myself while at college so I have an idea what's involved.

    Would you do it?

    Realistically, I don't think I could do it. The main reason being I'd be afraid I'd know someone in the class.

    I think I would. My body is a temple anyway. People like temples.

    Well I do a bit of photography, so if anyone wants some nude photos taken so they can then sell 8x10s on a Saturday morning in the market...


    *chi-ching*

    Ladies should expose only their ankles in public.

    I don't think I'd have a problem with it. Everyone else, on the other hand....
    Chances are people would think a crazy, nude hobo had wandered into the place.

    Something funny about asking for pictures or getting the f*ck out.

    It wouldn't bother me - but most would not maybe call my body a work of art! LOL
    More like a moving disaster! :D

    Racist.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,822 ✭✭✭sunflower27


    If you need the money, why not. You aren't harming yourself in any way and seriously, what are the odds of you knowing anyone in a small art class?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,762 ✭✭✭✭stupidusername


    totally would :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,538 ✭✭✭flutterflye

    It sounds really, really boring. I couldn't sit still long enough, so no.

    Depends on the pose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,528 ✭✭✭foxyboxer


    Of course. Any excuse to take my clothes off. *flexes abs*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,208 ✭✭✭CardBordWindow


    Ah sure why not!?
    When you pose, try and put them off by adopting an overtly explicit pose. Maybe shave a smiley face down below too! ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 276 ✭✭dirtypanties


    yes,but I think people would pay me more to keep my clothes on unfortunately..:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,297 ✭✭✭Jaxxy


    Ah yeah, wouldn't have a problem with it.

    You're an artiste? Show me the MONAY!

    When I was in art college we had a male model, and he must've been about 60. One day one of his bollocks dropped out of his underpants (it didnt roll across the floor or anything), and the girl beside me got quite flustered and began to faint. I think I stopped drawing at that stage, if I remember right.

    So no I wouldnt, except maybe for a million quid.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 449 ✭✭Emiko


    It's a question over which I've constantly mused.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,700 ✭✭✭ronaneire


    Ah yeah sure get your tits out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,057 ✭✭✭leggo


    Yeah, sure I sit with the lad out for hours at night on ChatRoulette for nawthin'.

    Not having a ****, mind you, it's all for artistic purposes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 51 ✭✭ReallyWiggy


    how much does it pay?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,887 ✭✭✭IrishZeus


    You can almost hear the erections from some members just reading this thread.

    But seriously, do you charge by the hour or is there a nightly special...? :D

    He was wearing pants? :confused:

    The models I had to draw included a dreadlocked hippy girl, a young male who was waaay too bendy and liked to show off, a bald overweight lady and an 80 year old man.

    Be interesting to hear from anyone that's done it. I guess you just zone out while doing it.

    is there much demand for 'Naked Man Playing Xbox' type paintings?
