Mmmmmm , ..maybe because he's actually not under an NL imposed WWW house arrest and is actually allowed to type in scary and strange URL's other than http://www.maxwellrender.com ??

Just wild speculation though ... I'm known to get a little crazy myself ... :lol: It's a big internet this internet!

To me it looks like the R2 droid and various variations of that is the only thing that he has created. That's all we ever seen from him. I would like to see something new, this is not new this is just the same old model we've seen posted here on the forum for several years now. :(

Because it was just a goof I posted on my Facebook page - took about an hour's worth of work including the rendering. I did it right after we got back from seeing Iron Man 2, but then it hit the net, and the director Jon Favreau tweeted about it, so I did a quick wallpaper version. :)

Apparently this director saw it fit to end R2's character ...

On happier thoughts, he is continuing with story development --- so that's good.
