This is my fourth Half-Life model, third released. After making a lot of skins
My Guardian model is based on a earlier model by me: Farseer.
I have made an entirly new head, made a different chest and legs.

The model is based on a Eldar Guardian, made by games-workshop. Guardians are the main 
soldiers of the Eldar, a highly andvanced sort of "Space Elves"
The big shiny gem on his chest is a spirit stone, a gem that captures the spirit of
the Eldar wearing it  after death. This will protect him from being devoured by the 
Great Enemy, the Chaos god Slaanesh. His armour is made from a undersuit with pieces of 
plastic-steel placed over it.

Files included are, 
Models:	Guardian.bmp, Guardian.mdl and this text.
(place these in your Half-life/Valve/player/models map)

The .mdl file is the model you will see during play.  
The .bmp file is necessary for the model to be selectable via the launcher interface.  
For a player model to be visible to all clients playing, it must be installed on
the server for it to propogate to all playing clients.
