"They call him the Consul now. It worked fine for him. He speaks for the Combine; he shares in their power. As for the rest of us..."

This was fun to make. I wanted to make an original map based on the Half-Life 2 Leak for the longest time now, yet I haven't found an idea that I could turn into a map. That was, until two days ago when I was combing through some old concept arts, I came across the "Vertigo" concept art and maps. Imagine having that skyline from your apartment. Then I thought of Cyberpunk Apartments and how it was the first map I've done in a cyberpunk-ish style.

This was perfect. And over the next two days I blocked out the map and used some Build2001 assets that the creator kindly provided for free (link below). After the 3d skybox was finished, I sprinkled some extra fog and scrolling clouds to enhance the dark and griddy. I'm very happy with the end result.

This map, just like Cyberpunk Apartments, will pave the way for future Leak styled maps.
