This time I really recommend viewing the full-size version of the picture. Otherwise, you won't be able to see Gordon's facial expression. I think I did more work on that than on the actual posing. It actually took me less than 40 minutes to make this picture. I got the idea for it when I was trying to pose Breen standing in the middle of a well-lit square with a light shining on him from above. When adjusting Breen's left arm, I realized that it just looked weird. Then, all of a sudden, I remembered seeing a picture of a painting on TVTropes, and I must have been inspired by it to some extent. Somehow the painting and the unsuccessful Breen posing blended together and became the above picture. Even though the picture and the painting are far from identical, they have a few similarities in their content. I'm a little bit unsatisfied with Alyx's head. It doesn't hang the way I think it should. She doesn't look dead.
It could be worth mentioning that I find the romance subplot between Gordon and Alyx a bit annoying. Why does everything need to have a romance subplot?! It just gets in the way.
[UPDATE] I've decided that, just for the sake of comparison, I'll also include an example of what the picture looked like before I added face posing and colour modification:
