A large part of the lack of "showcase" models is the studios turning out a ton of crap, always looking for the next model instead of developing models they already have that are appealing... or else a model working for a million different studios and burning himself out with his audience.

BTW, Sammy Case never worked for Bel Ami. He did more scenes for us than for anyone else, but he's worked with Colt, Helix, PZP, us (18 West), Badpuppy, Boyfun, Allboy Magazine, and a couple of others I can't think of right now.

I've always felt like cultivating demand over the long term with the audience is best done by slowly and carefully releasing a model's content over a longer period rather than shitting it out as quickly as possible... but that assumes that the model is also interested in building a career over time rather than being a flash in the pan, and I think that both models and studios are often impatient.
