That story had every other guy googling the ladies and every female agast.

Woo...used agast in a sentence. Bonus points.

that would really suck for my class. in my first class it would've been cool 'cause there were more girls than guys and most of them were hot, but now there are only 2 girls in my class and they're....not that atractive.

i kind of want to take up another anatomy class again because of this thread...

go for it.

if only my lame ass community college had such a course to take. it's ok though, porn and a pause button is all anyone really needs. :p

unless your vcr sucks and when you pause it the screen gets all shakey shakey.

I'm aghast that you thought agast was a word. Twice.

Most of the nudes in my life drawing classes were built nicely. There was one big exception. For three years my art professor had a back-up model in the form of obese farmer. This guy's gut was so big you didn't have to worry about drawing his penis because you couldn't see the damn thing. Also the guy had what looked like a rash on his back and couldn't pose worth crap. Drawings always ended up being "fat guy, standing with slight arm movement".

We had some decent female models, one worked as a stripper, me and a few guys from a class saw her in a club and she recognized us. Also one of my friends in class got a surprise one day. Her ex-boyfriend was our model on several occasions, and she'd never seen him nude before then. *-neo

Thank you for showing me the light, I'll never take another Art class as long as I'm alive. :o

Re: Agast

Spell-check is your friend, Hero ;)

And how do you "google" someone, except on the Internet? :)

Anyway, I would think drawing the human form is significantly more interesting than doing a still-life or a landscape. I don't draw all that much, but I hate when people take vacation and everyday pictures that don't include a person in them. Without people, life is nothing.

If the person is less than an Adonis or an Aphrodite, that's just more of a challenge. There is something worth capturing about every model's personality, even if it's just that they are poor and really need the free lunch.
