I have been a Half Life fan since 2020 (got into it kinda late I suppose) and I really enjoy making fanart pieces. A TF2 fan and Medic main from the start of 2023. I don't ship but don't hate on it.
Triage At Dawn... Drawn while listening to Triage At Dawn remixes among others. This song feels like the soul of Half Life; it's emotionally charged, melancholic, it feels like humanity's situation and remixes add even more. One of the most beloved pieces of OST. So here's a tired Gordon enjoying a sunrise on Highway 17 in some imaginary scene...

"You should visit more often, they're always asking about ya!" "Of course I will" What do you mean Spy became a grandpa and spent Christmas with his son, whom he almost lost and who now has a huge family of his own just like his mother and his own house and he likes him and wants him around his kids and finally felt comfortable and safe enough to reveal his face to his team and this perpetual I'm-surrounded-by-idiots frown left his face and had another chance to make up for not being there and …

Emesis Blue face studies in... greyscale, is it called? I decided I quite like it. Still trying to figure out exactly what the heck is going on, rewatched it for the 6th time. But I suppose not knowing exactly what's up is part of it's magic. I love how the movie always kept everyone's eyes bright white no matter the shadow (in most cases).

"The alien beauty of Xen" This, as you may have guessed, was mostly inspired by Black Mesa in which Protozoan, these mesmerizing bubbles, appear far more frequently than in Half Life. Black Mesa, to me, feels very... emotional, especially in Xen. It might be the graphics turned up 1000 notches, it might be the NPCs turned more human, it might be the renewed fricking AMAZING look of Xen and its music but this remake feels extremely emotionally charged for me. And that's what I tried to convey her…

Here's what came out of the pain of this usual f*cking situation; Me, a Medic, on fire and running like hell, my health trying with teeth and claws to regenerate fast enough and the SPLITSEC before I touch a medkit, my health either loses the battle or the Pyro crits me with a flare gun. And I land ON the medkit. So I took that almost comical situation, drew it in a perspective I've been wanting to try and loaded it with extra terror and desperation. I ended up adding Engineer because he and Pyr…

Something I made on Krita, requested by @CaptainQuirk26 They asked whether I could draw them a Vortigaunt with a fedora for a pfp and it seems I went a bit, uh... extra on the background (and lighting). One day- ONE DAY I'll be able to think up and draw better backgrounds. Why does drawing ALWAYS have to hit me with the "It's looking horrible, leave it and redo it", EVERY TIME there's a phase like this. But I went past it yay. Also this turned out to be an experiment. The lineart brush is dif…

I drew Gordon and Barney from memory in the three main head angles at school in breaks today. I was going to add in Alyx to complete the beloved trio but I had no time plus *cough cough* how do you *cough* draw women...? Eheh, I'm rusty. Barney's looking tired and depressed again, one day I'll draw him joyful and smiling. But now he's had a hard shift.

"M" Dr. Ludwig and his various messed up versions throughout Emesis Blue, all in a combination. I have one thing to say about that movie to sum it up and one thing only: If you haven't watched it you're committing a serious crime. Just that. Yep. This here was one of the usual artist roller coasters. Spent a good two hours (maybe three) on it in a row, left, came back and OH SH*T WTF IS THAT. I worked it a bit more, bravely resisting the idea to leave it and pull through and I don't regret it, …
