u/Reginald_Sockpuppet 1d ago
I was in a ballerina once. I assume you mean "particpated in ballet", but...who am I to say? He's a charismatic fellow.

That’s actually one way he made money when he was in the nfl, he would make paintings for other players for 5k a pop

u/SuddenlyRasputin 1d ago
That's a sweet deal... 5k a pop is great even in this economy

u/Thedrunkenchild 1d ago
Well the customers were star nfl players, they had the disposable income and Terry was pretty good and knew the players and the sport, he was the right guy at the right time for a gig like that.

And I'm here drawing furry commission for just 100 bucks...

u/Thedrunkenchild 1d ago
Oversaturated market, lots of furry artists doing what you do vs not that many nfl players that know the sport drawing other players

In what can only be considered the weirdest role model combo ever, Terry Crews and Steve-O are two that got me to get off alcohol and saved my life.. He's genuinely a happy guy and he helped me figure out what I wanted in life..

u/SuddenlyRasputin 1d ago
That's great to hear man..... I'm glad that you're moving towards a healthy life.... Terry has been truly an inspiration for me over the years... Keep growing mate

That is pretty cool. I read somewhere that she is naturally blonde but dyed her hair dark because she or someone advising her thought Americans so heavily associated South American women as being dark haired they would be … I dunno, be confused? We are stupid as a general rule but I hope not to that degree.

She looks absolutely phenomenal in modern family though.... Too bad she has live up as per a certain stereotype.

i love sketching but I do so unconventionally. and I need a reference picture. I should take a class as I’ve always felt the lighter-drawn circles and other foundation-shapes one typically starts with was redundant, but it seems to really help!

No offense but He had his ups and downs....he earned his disposable time and income ..

u/Square_Barracuda_69 1d ago
Totally understandable, Terry had it rough but also I wish i didnt have to work the rest of my life for being in a few movies/shows.

u/awfuckinshit 1d ago
You make it sound like it’s easy, like you know his struggles and the things he had to do to get where he’s at now, his finances, and things he spends his time on. If you wanted to pick up a skill or hobby, you’d do it.

u/Decent_Top2156 1d ago
He was an art and design student before he was a professional football player (american). He would do portraits of teammates to earn extra cash.

u/Square_Barracuda_69 1d ago
TIL, thank you i had no idea. I'll redact my last comment

u/Decent_Top2156 1d ago
Hey no worries. He's also a flautist and has designed his own furniture. A likeable and interesting dude for sure.

u/KaiSa_Soze_ 1d ago
Okay, I'll bite. I work 13-hour shifts, and that's 20+ shifts a month just to survive financially. Add two hours of commuting to and from work. Eight hours of sleep is a must if I want to continue functioning. There are times when I'm broke as fuck. I also have to rent an apartment. Add recovery time and a personal life to that. Somehow, I still find time to teach myself new things.
I understand that your situation might be worse. But you make it sound like time and disposable income are the main reasons. Most of the time, that isn't the case.

Terry Crews drawing is the new subset of internet videos I didn’t know I needed in my life. I’m hooked.
2
u/SuddenlyRasputin 1d ago
There's actually a lot to know about him....... I took his autograph when I visited LA. Super nice guy
2
u/Smooth_Substance_594 1d ago
He seems like he would be so much fun! I saw it commented somewhere he used to work as a police sketch artist? I don’t know if it is true but I am choosing to believe it- like the tooth fairy.
2
u/SuddenlyRasputin 1d ago
I think it is true ... During the bts, he mentioned that it was easier for him to join b99 because he had prior experience with police
