Heya, my name is MegamanNick, a 20 year old who does mostly artwork, voice acting, video editing and script writing, Especially things that involve Half-Life!
A multitude of sketches I did for the fun of it.
From top to bottom we have:
A winter themed Metrocop (requested by someone on Discord)
A Combine Royal guard
My take on a 7 Hour War variant of the Cremator
And a Standard HLA Cremator
That one theory about the Citadel being alive.
I remember hearing about this and it still genuinely intrigues me.
There's a theory that talks about the Citadel, even in the leaks, being some sort of large eldritch creature or organism turned base by the Combine.
The most common claims to prove this theory are the yellow pipes with veins, it's moving 'ribs', and the strange sounds it emits inside. As for the leak version it mainly involves the strange organic looking structures, the way it looks and how it moves.
But even since the reveal of HLA this has been debunked as the citadel is just a regular metallic structure. But what do you guys think, you think it's possible that there is some sort of living element to the citadel? I know that the alive part would most likely be in the leak.
(The oldest post I can find of the theory, I remember seeing it discussed in youtube comments too.)

Because of image limits I had to split my post in half.
