your3dsource.com — One of the "holy grails" of 3d computer animation is creating a lifelike human face with realistic looking hair and features. These computer-constructed images would be so realistic, that it would be impossible or very difficult to discern the animated model from a digital photograph of a real person. See if you can find the CG ones..

Yeah. The ones that impress me are those like in the computer generated Final Fantasy movie, who I think were the same that did the first clip in the Animatrix. And that was done several years ago now ...

It's not even 3d. They averaged many faces together. There's nothing 3d about it.

Digg this down, someone said it at the top.

indeed. scratch faces are the only 100% cg faces. this is just photoshopped photojournalism. randomized created faces would be truly scary. this puts that within arms reach though. this is borderline unacceptable at this point.original comment:"This is innacurate. They are not completely computer generated...these faces were created by manipulating real photos with a computer (e.g. averaging two or more faces). It's not like Pixar created them from scratch. I could apply a blur photo to a pic of my face and say it's a computer generated version of me, but that'd be a bit misleading.Seek out the original study for details.Edit: This link has some: <a class="user" href="http://www.uni-regensburg.de/Fakultaeten/phil_Fak_II/Psychologie/Psy_II/beautycheck/english/durchschnittsge">http://www.uni-regensburg.de/Fakultaeten/phil_Fak_II/Psychologie/Psy_II/beautycheck/english/durchschnittsge</a>"

There's 3D generated faces, and then there is "we photoshopped a picture of a real face three times to make each a little different". The title of this article is very misleading, and this is really not that impressive at all. It would be one thing if the artist started from scratch with a blank canvas. It's quite another to start with a photo of a real person.It's also pretty lame that they just took these images from another site and tried to make it look like they had some original content.And if the images really had been legit, who would know, with the tiny photos they posted? (What, the site that originally uploaded them didn't have high res ones for you to steal too? Awwww.) Bleh. Just lame all around.
