Body painted nude, nothing implied about it!

Just because the model is wearing body paint and FEELS less nude, doesn't mean she is any less nude by definition. The image is of a nude model in bodypaint.

If a model who doesn't do nudes will pose in bodypaint it doesn't mean she magically isn't nude. It means she feels less vulnerable and that layer of paint is enough to make her feel comfortable posing nude.

If a model wants to say bodypaint is not nude...hey, whatever floats your boat to make you feel better about taking off your clothes. But you're still nude.

If a photographer wants to say "hey baby...you're not nude because you're covered in bodypaint. Great...whatever works.

But I have a feeling that's the same guy who tries to convince his girlfriend that it's not really sex, and she'll still be a virgin, if he does her in the ass lol.

Apparently this is NSFW:

But this is OK:

Your shot might be considered nude because of the visible outline of nipple...

Bloody awesome photo, Dan!
Just listed the first one.

And yes, MM does seem a bit nipple-phobic.

Right, that's it!

I want to see everybody that posted in this thread in my office after school. When you can write out 100 times:

'I must not waste my time debating pointless trivia on Internet Forums when I could be doing something productive or spending time with my loved ones.'

Well MM regards bodypaint as a covering so it's not "nude" but to me it's a nude with bodypaint
