    I did for art college. It was terrible, would never ever do it again. My body's a temple, yeah, for the flying spaghetti monster. Not only that, but you instantly become aware of every single part of your body, and it all ****ing itches.

    Yes, thankfully! Maybe he was a bit self conscious about his "crown jewels". We did have a female model also, and she used to go the full monty. Nice lady actually, used to sit and drink coffee with us in the canteen afterwards.

    Nothing wrong with it, it's not seedy or anything but I wouldn't do it, how well could it pay like, has to be better options. Plus if it's in a college situation you are more likely to recognise someone * awkwards *


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 248 ✭✭DanTheMan91


    I would. It would not be a big deal to me. Everyone has a body and all that goes with it so why not.

    The secret to capturing Scumlords likeness on paper is to first cut a potato in half, next dip it in paint and stamp it on a clean sheet of paper, for the head and limbs use smaller potatoes. I don't really need to be there at all.

    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 did a little bit when I was in my teens for school, clothes on stuff though.


    Though like anyone else, theres bits of me I like and dislike. But at the end of the day, you wouldn't be stripping off for just anyone. I'd like to think that they take art seriously enough to just get on with the job.

    So yeah, I suppose I would do it.

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

    I did this a while back. I caught my reflection in a spoon while I was eating my cereal, and I remember thinking "wow, you're ridiculously good looking, maybe you could do that for a career."

    I had a glamorous life of expensive clothes, satin sheets and crinkle-cut chips in silver bowls, but such high living comes at a high price.
    Things turned nasty though when I realized my photographer Trebor, was grooming me as an escort to visiting Japanese businessmen.

    OP, if you do decide to go for it, make sure you're not contractually obliged to sleep with foreign businessmen.

    I wouldn't mind too much I suppose.

    What happens if the male model gets hard mid-sit, and you've already drawn his knob? Go back with the eraser and do it again? Or somebody might start with the johnston and another might leave it till last, resulting in two quite different images of it.

    I get naked for free so why not get a lil money for it. I'd do it. I'd wanna clean the pipes first. Some sexy arty chicks around, wouldn't wanna show how keen I really was by pointing at them.

    its all a matter of perspective


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,650 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    I'd do it no bother if asked. I have been seen naked by probably 200 people as it is, given I tend to just get naked at random times to run about a little, so being drawn wouldn't be too bad as long as it wasn't too long. How much do they pay? I would thumb out a semi though, just so I didn't look pathetic, I am a grower not a shower after all! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,724 ✭✭✭tallaghtmick


    I would except I reckon my pic would like that brian cowen painting


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 rocketchick


    Yes, definetly I don't think this means that Im more liberated than anyone else... just more skint
    :)
    in fact im now going to investigate further thanks for the idea!

    Dunno. I'd say it wouldn't be too bad.

    The judge says I'm not allowed to show myself naked to other people anymore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,779 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    Being an artist who uses the nude form, I had plenty of girls willing to post but alwasy teh same excuse: my boyfirend wouldn't let them. Oddly enough it was the complete opposite the other way around, girls wante their boyfriends to pose.

    Boy friend#s promptly refused, because the felt a bit "gay".

    So the question is - especially for the guys - would you let your girlferiend pose nude for a photographer, assuming she was up for it?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    What happpens if a guy is modelling nude and he pulls a boner? Like, seriously? Does he just sit there and wait it out? He can hardly hope that nobody notices. Or do the students all just tut and click as they erase and redraw, erase and redraw...

    In Trinity it's about a tenner an hour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 593 ✭✭✭AnamGlas


    For the right price, why not :rolleyes:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 629 ✭✭✭Partizan


    I'd say if you did pose alot of the time in Trinity, as well as having a few bob you could rack up a female posse (if you're a bloke).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,877 ✭✭✭stripysocks85


    I think if I insisted on posing nude, people would pay me to keep my clothes on instead of displaying my wobbly bits, so might be an idea there............. I could pretend I'm going to and then get paid anyway. Score.
