I'm keen to get experience in nude art modelling, will pose without charge for Brighton-based hippies. You can see what I look like on my flickr stream. PM if interested.
Thanks man - it's all about conquering my fears innit? Life models in Brighton are overwhelmingly fit young girls, so I figured people might appreciate a different sort of challenge
shame you ain't London based Life Drawing is m'fav and i prefer to draw/paint interesting figures... i was VERY nervous when i first started (used to have nightmares about getting caught out in a village, starkers and trying to make it home, unseen) but once you get your kit off it's really ok actually... artist are usually very respectful about your space/boundaries...
Heh, I dunno as a sports player, communal showers have gotten me somewhat used to being naked in front of a group of people- but even still, no one (at least I hope!) is staring intensely at my junk I doubt anyone would actually want to see me naked anyways, unless they were purposely trying to blind themselves
I've life modelled for art students. They don't give a fuck what you look like. They just want to get their assignment done, portfolio filled or whatever. I know an old guy in his 80's who is still modelling nude. Hey, it pays well! The only down side - remembering the pose after a coffee break or lunch or whatever. I think whatever is going to be my word of the day since I've used it 3 times already!
