The Almighty Egg Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) Hey everyone! I just recently got approval to release this .zip file containing a ton of pics of the toys ID used in the development of Doom.(not the originals obviously) All credit goes to Jasper Carmack for buying the toys and taking these pictures, I am just the person to release them. https://www.dropbox.com/s/dxyhgihdd017juz/DOOMWEP.zip?dl=0 Edited April 5, 2022 by Eggman07 4 Quote Share this post Link to post
Jello Posted March 28, 2022 Oh shoot, I have that shotgun. It's mounted above my computer desk. I did take the orange cap off the muzzle though. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
ImproversGaming Posted March 28, 2022 Oh, ok these are the pictures of the ones that Jasper discussed here: I have not looked at the pictures yet but two things come to mind: 1) Does anyone out there have the other weapons to make a full set? Currently there is a: Chainsaw, Shotgun, Chaingun, Plasma Rifle and BFG. Maybe even other items like a backpack, etc. 2) Are there any plans to do anything further with these? Like 3D scanning or generating sprites? Just interested... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Sadly, I do lack the equipment for these, but if there is a DOOM enthusiast in Australia or in the Brisbane area who would be interested in assisting, I'd love to make this happen and get some history preserved :) Would also love to fire up the Eager Beaver sometime and get some real recordings, although the ones in the game were based on stock sounds if memory serves, but it would be nice to at least get some authentic recordings for fan use. I found what I believed to be the Beretta toy water pistol many years ago, but importation into Australia would have been difficult as it may have constituted a replica gun at the time. If memory serves me, it was some kind of large 1980s toy water gun in bright orange. Rocket Launcher was hand-painted according to John Romero last time I spoke with him although there's also a 1980s Rambo Rocket Launcher toy which has some similar shapes, but I would have to do some comparisons. Maybe it was a combination of painting and photos? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
