It's still a hard bridge to gap, but they're getting closer. I personally think a lot of it on the cutting edge like that video is the inferred material the face is made of. It doesn't read as honest-to-god skin. Whether it's lack of extremely small pore detail, or the way light scatters and is absorbed by the skin (something that's interesting in its own right to read about how they try to simulate), or what, I'm not really sure. All I can say is that there's always just the barest undertone of "plasticky" in even the most advanced skin texture and light modeling that I've seen. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.4 <cite>Corrupt_Power posted [p:898224449] in Hyper-real...
