Your most beautiful construction, or of which you are most proud

[doomguykiller69]

What is the map / building that you are most proud of or that you consider to be the most beautiful?
It can be your construction or one that you saw on a map!

The title itself is fine but it's pasted twice. Should just be "Your most beautiful construction, or of which you are most proud."

Holly Shrek, I hadn't noticed, thank you! XD

This is probably one of the best looking things that I've made

[BedrockCastle]

Best thing I've ever seen in Doom?

Scythe 2 MAP27, Afterlife 2

Everything about that map is perfect. The visuals, the music, the length, the difficulty. Everything. Truly feels like the apex of Scythe 2, it's all downhill from there. Erik Alm is a master.

I've made a lot of "visual prototypes" over the last few months, some of which I'm quite pleased with. None of them have ever been turned into full maps, but at least my grasp of the aesthetic side of Doom mapping has noticeably improved.

 

 

That one is probably my favourite, though there are a few others I like as well, spoliered for convenience:

Probably this map.

*glances at ubiquitous banners* hmmm, I wonder who made this map? ;)

 

Seriously, though, this map is beautiful. Very tasteful use of slopes and 3D floors, not to mention the texture work. If it weren't for the items scattered about, I wouldn't even think this was a Doom map! That fact that you made this during Eviternity's development makes question your humanity...

 

Perhaps someone left Oblige running for too long, and it became a sapient map-making machine!

This was fun to make and looks cool in game. Takes place over an epic final boss fight including every DoomII monster, a Speider master mind and 2 Cyberdemons.

Maps 01, 07 and 20 from Going Down

 

Here's a bonus

[Jaska]

Still "Lost civilization 1" map 20. Quite sure I will never do anything as big, complex and nonlinear. In terms of testing maps, this never felt boring because of so many routes you can take.

These two maps for Ozônia.

Probably my favorite regarding mood and visuals so far.

My upcoming map for the Doom Maximum Project 2021 (that i might somehow still miss the deadline for), mainly this one small arena in it which shifts layout constantly as you press switches around until you can reach the exit. It's not even fully done (because as you can imagine it's a fucking pain to do) and it's already using 150ish tags just for all the moving geometry and lifts.

 

 

I also like to use it as proof that you absolutely CAN use a shitton of different texture packs with OTEX and still have it look nice :P

This area in my most recent map Neoplasm:

Currently in RAMP, but I'll release it separately later this year as part of a minisode.

This fun contraption. It may not be the nicest looking, but it's definitely the one I had the most fun making. And it turned out so well too. It's certainly not the usual "One Xth of the puzzle has been solved..." thing.

[Doom_Dude]

Hmmm hard to choose. I guess it might be this unfinished Phage map. I love ruined places and designing a Fallout-ish map with lots of clutter, furniture and such is a lot of fun. I haven't been able to work on it, due to making WMC levels, some single maps for other projects and my own stuff including three megawads (Vilecore 1.2, Vilecore II and the NDCP remaster)....

It's not much to look at but I always enjoy the nice little simple and dare I say quaint stuff like these areas I did for Nova 2, they're pleasing.

Aesthetically, this final arena of Lorenzo and I's Mapwich 1 map is one of my favorites I've done.

I wish my existence was that easy; sadly I have all the same basic needs as you. 😅

[KeaganDunn]

Going off of stuff I have released, it would definitely be MAP06 of Bloodbath: Hell's Deepest. A magnum opus paying a small homage to God Machine, and constructed with only the stock textures. Quite a bit of work went into the lighting and various architecture, as well as the difficult setpieces inside it.

I built this thing in a matter of weeks back in January 2021, half a year into my mapping career.

 

 

Although it won't be long before it will be easily beaten by my WIP single-map project: Dwelling. (SELF PROMOTION LOL)

 

[Zanieon]

I like the gothic stuff i do for Hunter's Moon, but my true passion lies in futurism:

[peach freak]

Not exactly beautiful (I can't detail maps to save my life), but with the use of dummy sectors I was able to make this well where the water empties out and reveals a staircase. This is from my Resident Evil-based map that mirrors the water draining out of the well near the end of the game to reveal the lab entrance:

Your stuff is beautiful @Omniarch! Pretty excited to see one of your final projects!
