    Story:-

    Our friend Nick(citizen) here is a normal citizen. But when Gordon Freeman came, the city has turned upside-down. Elite Combines were everywhere. But Nick just sits down by a pillar and watch everything go bad.

    Eyes are too arsed to the right, the pic is really blurry, you need to put your graphs at max when you take a picture, and try not using so much bloom.

    EDIT:

    Posing on the combine looks quite nice, but something tells me its an NPC.

    Honestly the blur is overdone. I like how it fades in from desaturated corners, but the blur is just too intense. Try looking at other similarly angled photos for reference next time. I know the actual quality of the in-game textures isn't your fault so I won't address that. The bloom is a bit too strong as well. Overall it's not a very exciting or captivating picture, but hey no one starts off perfect. Just keep working at it.

    The combine is an npc, i just dont know how to get a ragdoll to hold a gun. I was playing with nukes before making this photo and my graphic card is heating up. I had to turn the quality to low.

    Get a fan, I actually have a big ass fan for my pc if it gets too hot lol (My pc is old as fuck).
    But, no collide is an easy way of getting a ragdoll to hold a gun, just no collide on the gun, and then on the ragdoll, after that is just posing.

    A nice way to guide yourself is to spawn a npc with AI off, and then spawn a ragdoll next to him and try imitating his pose.

    Nick doesn't have any pupils.

    Graphics seem pretty low, and AA seems to be turned off.
    Also, don't use NPCs in pictures, always pose.

    creative.

    I actually, made the blur very intensive so that the combine will be a little bit hidden.

    The eye posing really hid the pupils.
