originals (front and back cover) for comparison

this was a lot of fun to try! interestingly the 2nd one (back cover) took longer to make than the 1st (front cover), though i also made it first so there was some getting used to things there. but like the posing was much slower, esp considering i just have the physgun, no fancy addons for that stuff, and some of those models are really tough for that - especially that unarmoured combine, its bones are fucked up

i think there are some refinements i could make with enough time, especially on the 1st, but i'm satisfied with the results, especially considering this is my first time doing any kind of visual work or kitbashing in gmod in years, and the first time it was more than just messing around. i stayed up til 2am last night to make em LOL
