Does it make much sense......to have a drawing-only profile like I do?

Nope.

An Artist will want to see You the Model, not another Artists' impression of You.

fwiw

I pretty much stick to costumed or nude figure modeling, not photography - though I'm not opposed to the latter.  Maybe there are other drawing-other models' profiles on MM but I haven't seen any yet.

Ah, you're back. 

If you are trying to work the art/life model side of it, I don't see it as a problem.  There is a huge difference in modeling fees for a photo model compared to an art model.  There is a difference in the way the two model.  By having a drawing, you are telling artists right up front that you can be still.  But you should have something in your port that tells people what you look like, rather than an artist's rendering, as fifty one said. 

If you are trying to attract photographers, go with a photo.

That's exactly what I did when I first started out back in 1987 and there was no internet but we worked from print portfolios.  I would get the leader of a drawing session, the instructor in a college class, or even one of the artists or students to take several photos of my various poses during the session and then use those as reference shots for applying to new places.  In your specific case, that could get you some usable shots of yourself posing in a class to add to your modeling portfolio.
