are you taller than 1.8m? if you aren't, do you have nice body parts? ie hands, abs, feet, butt...
i hardly hear of part time models... the few girls i know are all full time pro models with agents representing them. and they travel quite a fair bit for assignments/jobs...

QUOTE(wongsinyee @ Oct 27 2017, 08:03 PM) i hear a lot of "freelance models" from my friends. full time model is hard to survive so a lot do extra "modelling" jobs on weekends to earn more money. some even do more than just modelling im not a model but from what i hear, the starting part is extremely difficult.. begging for assignments, fighting for jobs, going for trials/auditions and end up not getting the job... more than 95% gave up trying to make it a full time career. only the lucky few get to make usd10-50k pm... and most started young. from like 16-17 yo...

QUOTE(Strength @ Oct 27 2017, 09:57 PM) I'm 5'7. Is that ok? Even for those kind of advertisements, billboards also need to be tall? My body ok I think, I workout. I'm only 5'7 though. I'm looking for those advertisements kind of models, like the one u see in KFC, juice advertisements etc... Or are there runway models too? I dunno man, I never looked much into modelling before Interesting. Please share more there's this hk model who usually hung out with us when i was still working in hk was already 5'7"... i think most of these female professional models are like > 5'6". so the guys have to be taller i guess. anyway, you may wanna take up courses on professional modelling - how to pose, cat walk, present yourself... do up a professional portfolio for yourself. and wrtie in to talent firms to see if there're any opportunities to work with them. good luck.

QUOTE(Strength @ Oct 28 2017, 04:12 PM) Lol so most Malaysian guys don't look nice wearing any type of pants? Because I see average height among us is also 5"7 Nah I'm not looking to make a full-time career out of modelling. Just wanna earn some side income. Besides, realistically speaking, are there any successful male models from Malaysia who's earning a lot? Need take up courses and do portfolio some more ah? Is that for runway models? Us Malaysians can runway for what brands? Nah how about those like advertisements? You know like those advertisements u see on television like fast food etc. those actor/actresses i believe all of them have their own portfolio... not sure if it's gonna be easy if you do not have a portfolio to showcase yourself... anyway good luck.
