I'm not sure what you mean.

I agree that the image as a whole is not photorealistic because of the
simple lighting.

But what is it about the clay that you think looks fake?

I would think that the image would become rather photorealistic if the
lighting was improved using radiosity, but maybe the model/texture needs
some improvements too?

Well, it's supposed to look menacing, not cute...

Does the clayman Nick exist in reality too, or is he trapped inside the
computer?

I look at the piranha and think "Aren't you absentminded? Yes you are. Your
eyes are looking in different directions and I can literally see there's
noting inside your head...".

Then I wave my hand just in front of it and it doesn't react.
