"Who needs a camera?"
I'm guessing the artists who are copying photos do?

True. You don't get models to sit for long enough to do such work.

True, had one model once who's nipples had a mind of their own.
Go from little pea sized things to something that would have your eye out.

Life modelling is much harder than it looks.

When I was at college the students posed.
It was a good way to see each other naked without buying them several pints of snakebite and black first.

Artists who have done it have a better experience with a model. Those that don't want impossible poses held for impossibly long periods.

Duct tape works well in those cases I find

Some have tried
An artist named Robert Liberace uses ropes and chains to keep his models in certain poses.

Surprise, followed by an extended bout of fear seems to work.

I hope if I could paint that well
I could think of something more interesting to paint than a jar of pasta sauce

I'm struggling
what's the impossible detail about the pasta jar? Am I going to kick myself?

The reflection is pretty cool; I suppose it is taking the Warhol soup can to the next level.

the Warhol stuff had a more obvious transformative quality along with the celebration of consumerism
although maybe this does too (the text says they are quite large) and it's clearer when you see the canvas rather than a smallish jpeg

not as such. Warhol churned them out, it was less about the image, more that he was making it.
Pop-art subjects will continue to have a relevance to fine art, but less of an impact. This is kind of hyperrealism, (though probably just photorealism) I believe which is more focused on taking subject matter from a photograph, sometimes dealing with it in a photorealistic manner, sometimes focusing on one singular element and sometimes being so detailed so that if the photo's shit then so will be the image.
totally true
I prefer the surreal twist Dali gave his paintings etc.

I like him, but upon reading about him, I find he's a bit of a cunt.
Brilliant painter and skilled draughtsman though.
