Randy in CG?

The video tribute thread got me thinking, has anyone ever tried making CG footage of Randy?
I’m guessing somebody probably tried something like that with second life.
There was a show on the History Channel where old photos, taken decades before motion film was invented, were used to create realistic CG footage of Abraham Lincoln. Could you imagine if someone with the expertise were do something like that with Randy? It would be the next best thing to finding new recordings! They could use his photos and existing footage as models for his likeness and movement, then they could combine that with a full, 3D reproduction of the DOAMM tour stage, merge it with a good bootleg and we would come so close to having the video and concert experience we’ve always wanted.
