Absolutely surreal to think it has been 30 years since Petra rocked the nude modeling world when the mind boggling images of her body started showing up on BBSes.
Hard to imagine a world without a new Petra image set or video on its way each month. Even more incredible is over those 30 years there hasn't been another big tit model that is in the same league as Petra to take her place. Petra had the once in a lifetime body that so far has never been matched.
In her last couple of years she clearly sounds bitter at her content being pirated.
Understandable but it has been obvious for years that trying to make money just by selling nude pictures and videos is bad business model. Petra never really had the business sense that Danni Ashe had in using her own crazy body as the foundation for a larger and more diverse business.
Petra never embraced working with other female nude models. She never had the mindset of Danni Ashe who felt her body was like the person with a pickup who was always happy to let anyone of her friends use when they needed to move a sofa. Petra came across as someone who she wasn't letting anyone touch her precious body. A shame, but her decision.
She also never really moved beyond the personal website + subscription model that never was that profitable even twenty years ago. And she never embraced social media or other forms of exposure in creating her personal brand. Petra isn't known by anyone outside the very small number of people who still remember her from her original Playboy shoots.
Another problem she has is she just isn't very interesting compared to other models who managed to sell both their amazing bodies and their lifestyles and leverage that into huge social media followings and being embraced by movie and rock stars. Petra honestly has always come across as being a bit strange and bitchy just below the nice persona she tries to portray in public.
She really should have locked in a well off or even rich husband by the time she was 30. She could have still show off her body to the world if she enjoyed it but wouldn't have been left with the stress and anger at trying to make a decent living off it.
If she was working away each week shooting new videos or image sets I would feel more sympathy for her. But as anyone who pays attention to her shoots it is clear that she did one massive day or two day shooting session at The Mermaid location and has been trickling out content from then for years.
