Weight, height, look, etc., are not hallmarks of success. Stripping and camming are very different in the way that stripping and escorting are very different. Selling sexuality--even just the allusion of its intimacy--is a commonality, but that's about where the commonalities end.
If you really know your fetishes and requests, have an engaging and entertaining Life-of-the-Party personality, have the right equipment, and can market the shit out of yourself, then it's very possible. The hours are long though and the time is intensive. You can't just mentally check out and pull in $50+ per hour. When you're online, you're in the spot light.
There are successful models who do little more than log on and work. They have their hustle game down pat and pull steady numbers.
There are unsuccessful models who do everything, work all the hours, push all the marketing, make clips, offer phone sex, have dozens of eggs, do all the research, etc., etc. Their hustle does not resonate with customers for whatever reason.
There are in-between models too, of course.
Whether your are successful, unsuccessful, or in the middle is a matter of perspective. What one girl call successful may be abysmal to another. You have high-ish expectations for entering, but there's no way to know if you'll succeed until you get out there.
There are things you can do to prepare like reading this forum and researching, but until you get out there and see how the customers feel about you (and, more importantly, how you feel about this type of sex work), well, you really won't know.
