...made artful alliances with directors of equally robust creativity: Tim Burton, Steven Spielberg and James Cameron (with whom he was working on next year's Avatar). Winston's last handmade triumph was the metal suit that industrialist Tony Stark forges in Iron Man. The hard work and ingenuity Stark lavishes on his titanium tuxedo were worthy of Stan the Man himself...
