Photorealism.

For starters, you need good texturing and lighting--that's true even for very simple models. Beyond that, to create advanced images, you would need to buckle down and study the foundations of visual art. Look in the various technique-specific forums around here and read all the sticky thread in them--they all contain great tutorials that aren't just for teaching specific techniques, but also the theories behind them.
