The One Free Man...

Having finished Mass Effect, I finally sunk some time into The Orange Box the other night, and blew through Episode I and II in about 1 sitting. God damn do I love the Half-Life series. Portal and Team Fortress are pretty rad too, but the Half-Life games are the highlight of the package for me. I find that storyline more compelling than, say, Star Wars, and they're pinnacles of the medium to boot. Anyway, I wanted to draw some stuff from the series by hand, but it was too busy at work with finals and shit for me to feel comfortable with people potentially looking over my shoulder. I decided to just goof off in Illustrator piece by piece when I had time. Nothing amazing. The final version is my new avatar on bombunists.com, but I figured since I hadn't posted here in awhile (or even looked at it, sorry for the lack of comments on my part, bros) I'd post up another WIP. I don't know why I share these, they're just fun for me to look at sometimes and see how I went about making whatever P.O.S. I'm shilling.

Do you like the way I skipped a huge chunk of steps where I kept tweaking, adding and removing details? Haven't you learned vast insight into my work process? YOU'RE WELCOME.
