Description
This is too visually noisy and unfinished (for one, the Normal Map hasn't been updated yet) so it's not worthy of the "Tweaks" title for now.
I'm uploading it since it got compliments when I showed it off, in spite of the flaws I see in it.

What this does:
  • The Strider now has the bolts on its head from the Half-Life: Alyx design; the bolts on its legs have been updated to come from that game as well
  • A glow has been added to the Strider's flesh and wires in attempt to evoke Half-Life: Alyx. They are all in the HL:A green at the moment (though I feel the wires would work better in the blue and orange of the Claw Scanner, so those will probably change)
  • The eyes and anterior ventilation grille have been redone in the style of the Gunship
  • The "synth emblem" on the head has been made somewhat sharper and more saturated
  • The emblem seen on some Strider concept art has been added to the ball turret

This is incredible, look forward for the more finished version.

that's kinda cool actually

Yep. On the 2002 model, the Gunship is done more in the Strider's visual style, and it's side port...things look not dissimilar.

today I learned the strider actually has eyes

The selfillum front is definitely questionable. I couldn't really get the "beneath-the-skin" subtle the Alyx texture has.

this is great, the little logo on the side of the head is a really good touch and the vent/grill thing on the back of it's body or carapace looks really nice when glowing. my only suggestion would be to add normal mapping (duh) and maybe remove the glowing part on it's shoulder because from a front view, it looks like too much is happening visually, and because the glowing shoulder part doesn't match the eye color

also this looks like concept art (gark and dritty)
