Models

Within Net Test 2, we got our first look at the early playermodels for four characters, Gordon Freeman, Gina Freeman (later Gina Cross), Helmet & the HGrunt. All four models use brighter, more saturated textures. Additionally, the p_models for the Crossbow and RPG use their earlier designs.
