Slavic Street

Prefab_streets_blvd is a map that receives a lot of praise by fans of the Half-Life 2 leak for its realistic attention to detail compared to the more stripped-back approach to City 17 in the final game brought on by performance concerns at the time. My main goals when giving it a facelift were to add more depth to the building facades and a 3D skybox to extend the scope of the location. The dull, overcast lighting was a nod to Half-Life 2's aesthetic at the time which featured a desaturated colour palette.
