Our favorite Science Team had gone through many iterations until the looked like we see them today, going from frightened, nervous wrecks to somewhat goofy looking.

Version 1: Concept Art

Chuck Jones's concept art for the Scientist

The earliest version of the scientist, made by Chuck Jones. He has clothing different from any of the models, resembling more of a spacesuit than a lab coat. This version has round pitch-black glasses, which survived in the next version.

Version 2

Version 2

The second version of the scientist, found in a magazine which had Half-Life preview images, which bares familiarity to the one found in the 0.52 Alpha, the only differences being the stance and the head model, this version of the scientist is hunched over and its head model (known by fans as the Mad Scientist) has black glasses and a scar across his forehead.

Version 3

Scientists getting beaten by HECU

The models looked very similar to the previous version, but unlike the previous iteration, it does not have the same amount of "bloodiness" on the textures and its stance is close to the 0.52 Version. "Walter" model's glasses had become more blocky, similar to what we have today.

Version 4 - 0.52

The 3 Scientists present in the 0.52 Alpha

These models are found the files for the release Half-Life 0.52 Alpha and unlike Version 3, are dirtier and have more scarring, mostly on the back of their heads. "Walter's" glasses look similar to the final scientist model, "Einstien" and "Slick's" heads are not the same color as the rest of the body and despite what it may seem, these models have no moving mouth.

Version 4.5 - cine-scientist.mdl

cine-scientist.mdl

This model is a mashup of Version 2 and Version 4, having the "Mad Scientist" head and the body of the 0.52 models. This model is only used once in the "techdemo.bsp" map, where it is seen arguing with a Security Gaurd, only to be eaten by a Panthereye.
