vakkotaur: Centaur holding bow - cartoon (orvan)


Posing for artists, that is. I had expressed interest in posing in fursuit for a figure drawing panel and [livejournal.com profile] film2edit suggested I do that at the Sunday session. This is something that I just plain missed at RCFM this year and finally got to do. I was running a bit late or very nearly so, but it seems I (or Orvan) got there just as things were about to start.

Again there were multiple models and we could switch between posing and relaxing a bit. A couple fans helped. Even with the fans available things could get hot as there wasn't all that much movement. Between the heat buildup and some of the oddness of some of the "action" poses (one was Orvan charging someone, though that someone had him by the horns) the result was that I found it much more difficult than the event the night before. Even so, I'd still do it again. I would, however, not be offended or disappointed if I found out that I wasn't needed for such a thing due to others fulfilling the need. At least if I knew beforehand. If I got in suit just for that and then was turned away, that might irk me a bit. I doubt anyone would be turned away, though.

I know there were photos taken of the various poses, but I have no idea who took them or where they might be. I want to see them myself.

I had planned to make this post later, after posting about the rest of my Midwest FurFest experience, but it seems that I need to get it out of the way. Some time before MFF 2007 [livejournal.com profile] film2edit asked for folks interested in modeling at some figure drawing panels at MFF. People would be needed for human figure drawing, for fursuit drawing, and there was also some interest in nude figure drawing if there were folks willing to model for that. Via IM I expressed an interest in posing where needed. Part was frustration at not having done so at RCFM a couple years ago (I showed up but nothing happened) and missing the panel even though it actually happened this year. Feeling good about my weight reduction since a couple years ago, and perhaps overconfident about where my weight would be by MFF 2007, I also said I was willing to do the nude posing. I will admit to a bit of apprehension. However as many regrets are not about things done, but about things not done, I figured I could try it and find out how I reacted to it. If there was a problem, I would know not to do that again. Thinking about this was likely what inspired a post about nudity in dreams.

So, what happened? )


I think of the person I was chatting with about this before MFF who said, "I could never do that." I used to think that, a long time ago when I thought of it at all. I think I'm a bit more confident and at ease now. And you know, I think if I hadn't done it, I would have regretted it.
