The Modeling Experience

- Gesture poses: Quick 1-2 minute poses for warm-up sketches
- Short poses: 5-10 minute poses for more detailed studies

Clothing
Models may pose clothed, partially clothed, or in as little as a jock strap or thong - whatever is TABC “bar-legal” and that you’re comfortable with. We welcome all levels of coverage.
Since our events are held at the Dallas Eagle, leather, rubber, kink, and fetish wear are especially welcome and encouraged. Many models choose to wear interesting clothing, bring costume pieces, or pose in creative ways that inspire artistic exploration.

- A comfortable, respectful environment
- A modeling platform or designated space
- Breaks between pose sets
- Clear communication about poses and timing

- Comfortable in their body and with being observed by artists
