Well, you win Spookymooky's covetted Best Half Life 2 Picture Since That One Guy's Where Gordon's Fighting Some Tentacle Monster Or Something Award.

I like the Normal Colors the best, though I'd prefer it darker. Seriously awesome though.

http://www.half-life2.com/secret/Barnacle.jpg <--That's what I meant.

Also, if you put it in image tags "image url" Then we don't have to click it. I didn't do that with the one above so as not to distract from your awesomeness.

Great work Critical, how many triangles are involved in that scene? ;D

[Vegeta897]

Woah, I remember you working on this! I always thought you dropped it.

Totally mind-blowing, you have massive amounts of talent.

[nofx]

Submit it to valve!

[JNightshade]

That's incredible! Call Valve :D

And by the way spookymooky, the guy who created that excellent Gordon Freeman pic is none other than Valve's Dhabih Eng. One of my all-time favorite artists :)

Zabee!

Great job Critical! I like "railroad memory" the best!

Awesome, but, that warning sign looks a little out of place resolution wise.

Please do not do this.

[spookymooky]

Please do not do this.
Why's that? I prefer having all (or at least one) of the pics right in the thread to having to pop up another window for each one.

I prefer to pop them into individual tabs.
The sake is not just mine however, as we must consider those with slower connection speeds.
Not only is my connection slower than average, but at a great distance from most servers and their hosted content, putting me at a greater disadvantage.

Reason two, waiting for huge images to load makes the thread auto scroll, making reading impossible until they have adjusted it.

Reason three, they are frickin huge. Left to right scroll in forums is never acceptable. Individual tabs or windows lets the browser auto size them so they are viewable.

All excellent points, however, don't you actually have to wait longer for the pictures if theyre popped?

Technically no, as they are loading on another page, I can read the thread. (;

I just pop them open whenever I have a second. No rush to see them really.

[spookymooky]

I'd definately agree with you were this another forum, but this is the art forum after all.

By the way, Critical, this tangent is rather rude to you. I apologize. Are you planning on making any more of these?

[Shippi]

I followed this for a while as you were working on it

Excellent stuff! I like the normal colours best

[bbson john]

Wait, did you draw it? It is really look like a photo. More beautiful than a photo.

I remember during the tests VALVe gave us when we discovered the numbers hidden in the water. Although it had nothing to do with the test he said it's something he does occassionally.

Good times. :cheers:
