Some more concept sketches of what the Combine Recon class would look like in the arctic. The first image is the most recent and the one I'm pretty satisfied with right now as far as recon goes. The helmet is going to need some more attention and focus sometime. The fifth image is an older concept that helped me get to where I am now. Going to leave that alone for now and get more development on Barney. I was still kind of grappling with how to design him and what role he would play in my fictitious reality of Ep3. As of now, he still plays the role of being the spy, so my challenge now is what a CP would look like in the arctic.
For those who like playlists, ive made one with the kinds of moods and feelings i want to evoke in this interpretation through paintings and maybe a short animatic/video... But for nw its just pictures.
Lots of Trip-Hop and a sprinkling of some tracks from HL.
