Creature/Robot Spoiler in Skin?

[CoreyGH]

What is that robot/creature thing on the left side of the titlebar in the new skin? I haven't seen it in any of the media released by Valve. Can anyone link to the source of that image?

Did you have to start a thread on this?

 

[Striker]

its no spoiler...

 

[CoreyGH]

Where did it come from then?

Harryz: Uh, yeah. this is a discussion forum about the site, isn't it? Hard to have discussions without threads. . .

It's Dog. the concept art for it is quite old.

Especially with the 6 threads about the new forum skin below.

Yep, and none of them deal with the topic I'm talking about. Specifically, the creature in the corner and its origins. Go troll in another thread if you don't like this one.

The robot is Alyx's creation, 'Dog'. You can find a fullsize image of this little chap on our concept art page.

Hmm, I figured. But I can't remember seeing the art anywhere. I mean, I recognize the silhouette of the female assassin but I don't think I've seen the DOG concept before.

Thanks munro; I should have just looked there first instead of assuming I remebered everything. :upstare:
