Disney + is releasing a higher quality She-Hulk trailer that enhances the MCU hero’s CGI
Disney + recently released a higher quality She-Hulk: Lawyer trailer that apparently enhances the CGI of Marvel Cinematic Universe’s latest hero with shades of green.
The revised trailer’s improved She-Hulk CGI model was first seen by The Direct. Improvements are thought to include better-defined facial features, improved skin textures and tonal variation, and upgraded lighting and related effects, such as clearer reflections on the character’s eyes.

Apparently she was bigger early on, but the banknotes kept saying to ‘make her smaller’. We always roll our eyes (as we did on Sonic), but ultimately artists have to follow orders, “Ruecroft tweeted.
