Can you be a model if youre not stick skinny?


because i would love to model or something, but im not 6'0 and 100 lbs. ..im more like average height and 129 lbs.. so are there other types of modeling suited for me?
If not..i would like to do graphic design for like magazines & photography..where could i do that?
thanks!

im almost 5'4 .. =[ lol

Yes, it's called a plus size model. :) I don't exactly know if you would be considered a 'plus size model' though...129 really isn't that bad at all. Somewhere in between, maybe?
A lot of people, I think, are hoping for some taller people, possibly near 6', though. Although, it is still very possible for you to be a model. My sister was a model when she was younger, and she's about 5'1", yet she's pretty skinny and petite. Just look around town and talk to some people and get a head start on your career, I'm sure lots of people would love to hire you for a small modeling job!

Graphic Designing and Photography would be fun too, though! That's EXACTLY what I want to do for my future job! For photography, maybe save up for a really good camera, or if you happen to have one laying around the house, use it! And I'm not talking about a digital camera, more like a 35 mm camera or something like that....although, I have a friend who takes really good pictures with her digital camera, so maybe use one of those in the mean time, because the really good cameras can get pretty expensive.
For Graphic Designing, look up a few programs and see which one would be best for you. One of them I know that would be pretty good is Photoshop. Those can be a bit expensive too, though, and there are basic programs that you can download for free on the computer if you're tight on money. I use Serif Drawplus 4.0 (which is one of the free downloadable programs.), and so far it's been pretty good for beginning graphic design! Maybe once you get more advanced with graphic design, move up to the more advanced programs. Also look around your town for graphic design studios, and get some info about the places and maybe ask some of the people that work there a few questions, like what you have to know and learn to be a successful designer. I'm sure they'd be happy to answer any questions. :)

Hope I helped! And good luck!

of course you can there are plus size models but your not a plus size your kinda in between you can be a model they will put you in your category

OF COURSE!!!!!
there are plus sized models. but, i dont think that you would be a plus sized model because your only 129 pounds!!!!!
you could be a regular model on the cover of VOGUE if you wanted too. one season on americas next top model, most of the girls weighed around 120-130 just like you!!!

well what is average height... height matters more than weight. You can lose or gain weight but not height, and if you're under like 5'7" there's not much hope.
