It’s not a case of which is better it’s a case of aesthetic. Models don’t necessarily look more real they just have their own look which adds to the film.

CG can certainly look excellent when the effort is put in (a lot is done on the cheap these days) but there is a time and a place for models if you want that feel.

Would be interested in seeing someone try to recreate the feel of models in CG though by literally modelling a model set/scale in CG.
