It's been floating around the campus here: from the bits and pieces I've seen over other people's shoulders, a lot of the CGI is unfinished, a lot of the models are lacking any color.

That does sound pretty cool. Does anyone know of any DVD's that do show things like that in the special features?

I think 'making of' reels including that stuff are just about de rigueur on DVDs of big-noise effects-driven movies, now...the non-cheapie releases, anyway.

Yep. The Lord of the Rings Extended Edition sets show the textured frames before the CGI is complete. The featurettes go into great detail.
