We have 3 entries so far to our cosplay contest! Reminder it is running until the 15th of August so if you haven't submitted an entry and you have a killer Shephard cosplay you have lots of time to submit your photos!

Hello everyone! We are running a cosplay contest of Adrian Shephard to feature in our key art! See the announcements there for details! This will be run in our public Discord server listed here: discord.com/invite/9ktEX... #Cosplay #HalfLife #AdrianShephard #FUBAR #OP4

We are looking for your best cosplay of Adrian Shephard to feature in our key art! The winner of this will become our official base for our key art that we will paint over! The rules are as follows: - The image must be your own, no AI generations or stolen photos please. We have a keen eye for these sort of things. - Participants must be at least 18 years of age, as we plan to ship out a physical copy of the poster when it is done. - There must be at least one photo where the participant is posed like the cover art of the original Opposing Force, though additional photos are welcome too if you want to show off your cosplay! - We prefer the cosplayer hold an MP5 or the closest you can access to it, it doesn't have to be real obviously, but something that has the same or similar proportions. - Please do not submit unserious or unrelated posts to the forum. We will vote together as a team on which is our favourite, then we will announce the winners! Award for first place will have key art made from their photo which we will use as our official key art of Adrian Shephard, as well as a poster shipped to them (If you are in the US, other countries I will have to look at shipping costs)! Top 3 will also get an honorary mention :) The competition will run from Today (July 14th) to August 15th!

Gunship Bays were cut from HL2's Nova Prospekt/Depot chapter, and E3 2002 has the gunship near the Depot. Valve's late 2002 whiteboard mentions "Strider production (vista)" for the Depot, and the "e3_depot_2003" map from the leak mappack includes a Strider. Wonder if there's a connection?
