I believe it applies as much to CGI as robotics. Thus models and miniatures are always going to look better to people, no matter how sophisticated rendering techniques become.

This looks like a very cool book, but it’s bugging me a little that the cover depicts the Millennium Falcon model over the CGI planet-scape of Coruscant. But maybe that was intentional…

I suppose it’s too much to hope that George Lucas proffers any mea culpas for his CGI binging in the preface?
