Well of course, organic models at the time of AotC are still not perfect. But it's the best it gets.
Quote:Oh and he's right that they aren't perfect. They are admittedly nearly indestinguishable, but I am quite sure that there are flaws and that they have not perfected CG. Just look at most any movie out there with it and how most of the time it's pretty obvious when they have CG characters... CG people do NOT look like real people yet. The Troopers deal with that of course by being in armor, but still... I'm sure some people can tell the real thing from the CG...
We're not talking about most movies, we're talking about the clone troopers in AotC. They are 99% flawless, and if you put them next to real trooper costumes then you would not be able to tell the difference without extensive examining.
However, ILM has already made near-perfect CGI humans for Episode III. I know these pics are small, but try and tell me which one is real and which one is fake.
