So, Gears of War doesnt have real looking skin?

Okay, could you give a game that displays higher quality skin than GoW?

now ,you came from ultra realistic to realistic ? okay ,so one or two post more ,you'll be in the correct range of GOW's skin quality

Skin in GoW is definitely not realistic, but I think it's an artistic choice and it looks cool as it looks.
I think skin in Brothers in Arms 3 is more realistic and is done pretty well:
