Darunia: They did use models in Episode III. LOTS of them. You just can't tell them apart from the incredible CGI, so you think it's all CGI. And the reason why things look dirtier and crappier in the OT is not because they're using CG in the prequels, the look is very intentional (and it's easy to make things old and rusty in CG, believe it or not!). Before the OT, the Republic was prosperous and (kinda) peaceful, and the economy was great. Then everything started to go wrong, and the Emperor took over the galaxy. Now people are oppressed and poor and can't afford shiny new Naboo cruisers.
