In 2003, he began an ongoing series of live appearances as a model for Let's Paint TV, an interactive call-in television show where host & artist John Kilduff instructs on painting while simultaneously running on a treadmill, preparing food or drink, and fielding uncensored phone calls. Schmidt posed for this show as the Devil, the biblical Adam, Cupid, Nero, and Bacchus, as well as in the nude. In June 2007, he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live as the model in a segment where Uncle Frank and Aunt Chippy learned to draw nude models. Schmidt currently provides the body for character Joy Peters in Tom Goes to the Mayor.
