    I would, if I wasn't married. My wife disapproves of such things so I will out of respect for her decline.

    But if not, I'm a BIG supporter of the arts.

    Yes! Done it a few times. Sketch modeling. At an arts eveningclass and a more private arts club. Paid in cash everytime.

    And i wouldn't mind cutting my regular job to half-time and being nude (and getting paid for it... to easy money...) rest of the time.

    And it is a good hr rate....

    Nudist since childhood here, yet I've never had the opportunity to pose for a nude sketch or painting. It would be neat to have something like that hanging in my bedroom, and I'd certainly jump at the chance to pose for such a session. Northern California here, feel free to write if interested.

    I'd love to have someone pose for me, as right now I am just copying photographs. Actually I'd probably take photos of the person modeling for me and then copy the photos, then I'd give the model the photos to do what they wanted with them. That way they wouldn't feel that I've done something with the photos without their permission. And I'd pose nude as long as I was sure that it wouldn't lead to anything sexual. I'm happily married and wouldn't want to mess anything up between me and my husband, and of course would have enough respect for the other person, whether they were my model or the artist I'm modeling for either one, that I'd want to make sure not to mess up anything for them by allowing things to get out of control. I have 4 kids, though, and am not all that comfortable with my body; however, no one's body is perfect, no matter what we're led to believe, and I wouldn't allow a few stretch marks to keep me from doing what makes me happy.

    I've done it for years.. I really love doing it. I've done it for money and free, depending on the photographer.

    I did it, it was fun. It's really interesting to be described physically without being judged based on those descriptions.

    I would definitely do it. I think the human body is beautiful - especially female - and I got so inspired and loved drawing the nude model the first time I did. I would love for people to be inspired and learn from my body, I think it would be a beautiful experience.
    And yeah it pays pretty good... its not as easy as it looks though.

    I recently had the opportunity to do some nude work of a workshop in Orlando. They train artists for Disney and others that produce cartoons. I thought it was intersting doing it nude for them. They told me it so they have full understanding of the shapre of the body so their charactors can be realistic as possible. I did some of the poses along and some with others.

    I would like to but at this time won't due to my low self esteem. I have though in the past (middle of last year) taken some artistic nude shots and posted them on deviantart.

    I would most certainly be a nude model. I am not ashamed of my body. Not to mention they get compensated quite nicely for their services.

    sure, why not? I do some photography and have trouble finding good models. The frustrating part to me is that th eones who are willing to do nude are usually good-looking professional models whereas what I want are more "normal" looking people. Some flab, bad skin, unkept private hair, the effects of aging, all of these make nudes more intersting from my len's point of view...
