molded doom

[Sephiroth]

ok i belive many of the doom textures and monsters may have been scans or digital pictures of models and other real life things. like some of the rock and stone texture, sky texture, the cyberdemon and the spider demon, wepons such as the chainsaw and chaingun. also look at the intermission screen for inferno i think parts of it, or most of it was a model made by the ID people. if these models still exsits, or did exsit i think it would be cool if they sold them or gave them out as prises. I wish i had a big statue of the cyberdemon

You have GOT to be joking! Hate to break it to you but Caco's and spider demons are NOT real :)

[Guest Adriannus]

Fodders! Are you trying to disillusion this young man? Damn, he'll have nothing to live for anymore now...Sephiroth, do you still believe in Santa? Just kidding, blah, blah, etc. I think you might be onto something actually.

WTF is up with you damn commies?

Hey hey! Just because I've got the sickle and hammer for my pic doesn't mean I'm Communist.

Well if I had an American flag for my icon wouldn't you assume I was a Capitolist?

This is when you explain why you selected that pic. :)

Some of the textures are scans, but they seem to came from 3D/2D packages, otherwise they would made a lot more of photorealistic textures. Most of them are drawed old-fashion.

The shotgun and the Spider Mastermind are still around id offices.

Well, I have no idea about the textures, but I have seen a picture of the iD guys and a really cool model of a spiderdemon.

I guess it's possible that they used pictures of models for some stuff, and I know the chainsaw is real(saw a picture of that,too).

However, the zombies, imps, and a lot fo other things are too cartoony to be photos. That's not to say they didn't use models as references, though.

I suppose you're right, deadnail. Um, I chose the hammer and sickle because I'm majoring in history and I enjoy Russian history. Plus, it looks neat. :)

No, I'd assume you were a patriot. But I guess I'm a bit naive.

I'd assume he's an idiot. Oh wait...

The 'rocky' background from doom is from a real picture.
It was on doomworld's pic of the day a couple of months ago.

For everyone who didn't understand what he meant, he is referring to the sky in Episode 1 of DOOM.

[Disorder]

Exactly :)

[Guest Erick20]

speakin' of textures... does anyone know where that episode sky texture was from?

[Lüt]

It was a Doomworld Picture Of The Day a few months ago.

I don't know if it was on a website but I can send you the image if you want.
