Yes the job it totally awesome. Pay varies from school to school. The community colleges are low 12.00 but the art schools are more. I average about 20.00 an hour. I also have a great deal where I get paid for days I don’t even work at times I am booked and they don’t use me.
You have to get used to posing in front of guys though. I now appreciate the whole art aspect so it is not that big of a deal. But the times when there are a bunch of women are great. I just have to take the good with the bad. This job is very tough though. It is the most physical job I ever had (and I was a construction worker). Posing is hard work, and I use all my experience with sports and martial arts to come up with interesting poses that the artists really like. I mean it is not just plop down you know. Other times the teachers want to put me in very uncomfortable poses and at times I say “no I can’t do that.”
Taking Viagra is a learning process. The results are different depending on how much food you have in your stomach. I also had to learn the proper amount to take. I did get uncontrollable erections at first. I would get hard in 20 min whether I wanted or not. That does not happen anymore. On top of that, I take it like more than an hour beforehand and am careful to not think sexual thoughts. It is a matter of mastering my body. I don’t take it unless it is a smaller job that I won’t be too disappointed about losing. I lost a few really good gigs in the beginning.
I can even get a half hard at times but that is really (throwing the dice) haha. It is a funny thing, I want to see the girls look, but when I see them it gets exited haha. Many times though they don’t look and try to be very professional and other times they just draw it as is.
