i wanted to draw a model for some time now but i do not have the money to hire one, so i want to convince a friend so she can let me draw her, and if anybody has done this before share his experience

Try chloroform.
And good luck getting someone to do this who is not a:
A) lover
B) model
C) fellow artist

Ask if you can draw her in her underwear or a swimsuit first? Or shorts and a tight shirt? If she says yes maybe she'll let you draw her naked later.

>>2473141
what is wrong with her ass? it's out of proportion af

>>2473167

she's standing in contraposto, you utter noob

Just draw her normally, and when you're done, show her and say she's a good model. Then ask her if she would be willing to do long poses at another time. Preferably in a swimsuit because you obviously can't learn the body as well when it's clothed.

>>2473141
You don't unless she's already down to fuck.
Drawing a normie is essentially foreplay.

uhhhhh i usually just ask people at a coffee shop near my house if i can draw them.

then i get their phone number and try to get them to pose for paintings. I'd say there is a success rate for getting people to pose (for me at least) that is about 2 in every 10.

as for asking friends to pose that's not hard they enjoy helping me and I usually give them a painting at the end.

Nude modeling is pretty rare usually people expect payment whether that's you posing nude for them later if they are an artist too, money, or free artwork.

good luck trying to get a friend to pose nude for you unless you go to an art school and all the girls are trying to be artsy and experimental. Most girls prefer only having their boyfriend see them naked.

It also helps if you are really freaking good. If the girl you are asking REALLY loves your artwork it shouldn't be too hard to get her to pose nude or clothed, but you need to be REALLY good first.

I expect I'll reach that in maybe 2 years at the rate I'm going but still in the meantime it's hard to get models. And if I'm having trouble I imagine OP is gonna really struggle. People want you to be accomplished, they don't want to be used for practice they want to see a finished painting when you are done.

I've drawn a few female friends in real life. The only time it ended up in sex is when we were already at that level anyways. Having a girl pose for you (awkwardly) isn't exactly the best icebreaker into sex, unless you're in art school I assume, or something like she approached you while you were drawing and asked you to draw her. I would see that as a green light in most cases.

If you want to draw a female friend just ask her. Or wait till they ask you. If you know girls and they know you draw, it's absolutely inevitable. Girls love to be drawn. I think they like the idea that they can be made into a piece of artwork by you.

Every Friday I attend a live model class. It's ran at a guys house who he manages to find a model each week by advertising. This guy studied at the Traditional art academy of china, his work is incredible. Apart from him, there is maybe 5 others and myself. It took me a while to find this class, but I kept looking. I started out asking a friend of mine if I could draw her naked, she said no and laughed at the idea. I didn't want to fuck her, I just wanted to draw her. I was fine with this though, because I knew I was a step closer to drawing a live person. I spoke to some customers at work (cafe) about my drawing and they told me of an art class that gets ran close by, no live model, just a bunch of people drawing. So I attended it. It was an old folk social thing, not my scene. So I didn't go back. But again, I was a step closer.

My point is, Don't worry if she says no, don't worry if you think you're not good enough. I can tell you now some of the people in my class are shit and I cant see improvement in their work.
If its something you really want to do, then get out there and try to make it happen. Eventually it will. Don't listen to others about whether fucking the chick, not being good enough, not being wanted t be drawn, having to swap things...... Fuck all of that man, just draw and do you, all that other shit is overcomplicating the fact that you simply just wanna draw a body. You'll do it, just get out there

She might have scoliosis or lordosis.

Did you try googling any meet ups for life drawing? I was surprised that there was one in my county two days a week. Though for me it is during times I am either asleep or at work.

go to a retirement home and ask an old lady if you can draw her naked. she'll jump at the chance.

I drew my chubby friend semi-nude (f), it was kinda awkward at first but we both soon relaxed and it was good.

Fuck off Brian, weird creep. Your hand drawings still look the same.

No she looks completely normal, that's just her hip sticking out on her weighted leg. Fucking shit noobs who have never been to a single life drawing class, let alone seen a naked woman.

How is this even a problem, just draw your gf\bf.

>op isnt foreveralone.tga
>>
>>2473970
No, you dont understand. We know that its the leg she rests her weight on in that pose, so the hip is raised and ass sticks out, but imagine seeing her irl, her ass is waaaaaaaaay too big, considering she's not fat. Seems like she has a condition when all fat deposits in her ass.
Ive drawn naked females irl, you cant use that tactic.

Looks fine to me. I think you're just confused by how her arm hides the transition between her hip and buttocks, which sort of makes it look like one continuous shape.
>>
I just ask for free models on Instagram and craigslist (cl is better for male models though). There are tons of girls who will volunteer just to have someone draw them; it gives validity to their aspirations of being a model. And everyone enjoys an ego boost, after all. Just be up front about signing a waiver and let them bring a friend if they like. Most girls who nude model for me do so after accompanying a friend to a session. It's actually harder for me to find male models - ones that aren't just pervs at least.

I go to the local art studio next to the beach and pay 5 dlls for class (that is only on Thursday) and paint and draw in a well-illuminated gallery. we are a group of 5 people, the main nude model is a very hot short girl and sometimes her husband would pose too and we stay there for about 2-3 hrs just as the sun is hiding behind the mountains at the beach.

why government art schools were so based?

No one needs advice from an old hack that can't take a critique.

You're not improving.
You COULD be, but your own self is holding you back.

"Brian isn't improving" is not a meme.
I'm literally telling it like it is.

You're not good. Your shit looks the same even from last year. You have not improved. You aren't improving, rather you are plateau-ing. You're not at a good enough skill level to be plateau-ing either.

Study some Huston, or Nicolai Fechin. Or look at some comic book inkers like Jim Lee or Breccia or moebius. Learn and understand line quality, as well as proportion and construction.

I'm telling you if you actually work and study old masters, you will improve in literally a month. I am not kidding. Actual improvement. Not "look mom I can draw hands!" improvement.

Get with the fucking program. I'm sick of seeing the same shit from you these past years and you could be sooo much better. I shouldn't care, but it's frustrating to see someone have this much time and not improve as fast as they could be.

Remember to have lotion for sexual massages, you can print a fake artistic lotion label on it so she believes its something all artists do.
