I believe its from the Left 4 Dead 2 partner depot, mainly because some of the base classes have L4D code baked in them without an ifdef wrapped around them.

I'm not going to post about the 2014/15 GTA6 map, but I cannot resist posting about how early-alpha GTA 5 Chop was... a car I guess before they had animal AI they just made him an rcbandito sized car this is a real Rockstar asset (it has textures but they wouldn't render sadly)

never thought it'd ever happen never thought it'd be with this many builds.

to get Hat Kid into #HalfLife 1, due to my workflow and limitations of GoldSrc, modding the original HL1 was out of the question, so I've been trying to patch up HL:S and desource-ify it.

Today marks 1 year since we witnessed Timmy Day 3 and the Death(?) and Rebirth of the Space Boy. I'd like to say once again it was a pleasure to have crafted this Modding Event and to have experienced all the fun content you Hat in Time fans crafted for it! Thank you for the good memories.

I have very little hope of ever living debt free (to be more specific it's my parent's debt), but these commissions are just about the only thing i know how to do.

Commission advertisement that says:
to the left:
I've been informed earlier this month that we are AROUND 4700USD in LOAN DEBT. Commissions being my only income, it's my fault for not earning enough to not be in this situation, so for the time being: COMMISSIONS OPEN for pretty much as many slots as I'll get in the next couple weeks, all information available on my Carrd page as usual.
To the right:
Some commissions from this year.
the image features some example 3D models created during this year.

a various collection of images i made while testing improvements my hat kid model #AHatInTime

Hat kid on a rooftop pool, holding a can of blue looking at the camera. Her outfit matches her summer outfit on the Death Wish sticker. Her pose is referencing the "Cheers to the weekend" pose that Justin Womble did for Blue Border Entertainment.

Hat Kid, wearing an outfit that matches the 2023 summer key-art, climbing up from behind a couch and smiling to the camera

Hat kid posed similarly to the trade offer meme.

Timmy buried in the sand, annoyed, with Hat Kid in her 2023 summer key-art dress looking down and waving.

Hat Kid isn't used to the standards of GoldSrc's lighting

you can especially see it in the shoes of this one

Gordon Freakman @gfreakman.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

half-life 2 is very guilty of this, mainly because this is how gordon freeman's model looked during the production of most of the game's promo art

Tribute to "citizen_rubble_tunnel", the citizen who unconditionally loves the player no matter how much the friendly fire system wants him to hate the player.

"citizen_rubble_tunnel" on a pile of innocent corpses. Hat Kid watches in horror.

to get the proportions looking a bit more natural than the in-game hat kid model, i used this ref sheet that i stole from the smashified render timelapse, might be useful to someone else

revised the hat kid model i made for renders, having some fun with it #AHatInTime

thought this would have been a perfect fit for hat kid so i implemented my own version (heavy wip)

goddamn this art has such a vibe that i've not seen too much of it's abstract and simple in the best ways possible, i love it

this raised my eyebrows, too, but fund.blender.org scroll down and see the people who have been funding them for a lot longer than anthropic (namely: nvidia, meta) fund.blender.org/funding-poli... read their funding policy

Gordon Freakman @gfreakman.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

but they are already taking money from adobe and meshy ai, so it's not really anything new for them to take money from ai forward companies, and at the very least they haven't influenced them to add more ai features

Gordon Freakman @gfreakman.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

its been hours and they've seemingly started regretting their decision, so that's neat
