just found this old picture sitting around in my photo folder. i took it shortly before i left to amsterdam in late august 15 last year.

it shows an enormously huge print of moonman that was featured on the blender booth at siggraph 2006. left it drying in the sun after some cleaning and waiting to be packed for the journey to the peach. now it’s probably collecting dust again somewhere here in the blender institute…

hmm… blue

hey!during the past months i’ve been getting occasional emails and private messages from friends and fellow blender users informing me that a certain graphics card (manufacturing/packaging?) company has published a graphics card box using a rip-off version of one of my early character pictures in their advertising campaign. they seem to have altered the image or painted it over in some way… so i decided to ignore it for the time being, since it seems that there isnt much i can do about it.but last week i got another email from fellow blenderhead roy schulz who found the actual graphics card package in a computer store. this sparked my interest again, since the similarity between the two characters is rather striking. see for yourself:

now what?
