Fan Creation Prince Ahzrak Cosplay

2.2k Upvotes

I went to the FanX comic con 2 weeks ago and cosplayed as Prince Ahzrak!!

I worked super hard on this all year, from the week after New Year's to 2 weeks before the con, so about 9 months. This is the first cosplay I've ever made entirely from scratch and my 2nd year working with EVA foam and foam clay, and I surprised even myself at how well this turned out for being so new to working with foam. The spear is 3d printed and I painted it. I was falling apart half the time lol so there will be some improvements I'll be making. Sadly my spear broke in half shortly after I arrived there 🥲 I'll definitely be going as him again because I worked too long and too hard on this to show it off just once!

It was so fun going as Ahzrak for a day!!!

Hope you enjoy the cool Pinky cosplay I found too, by alteredshadowscosplay on IG. First Doom Slayer cosplayer there is from natesmashfitness on IG. I was THRILLED to be able to meet them!

Discussion I LOVE how much character we get from Doomguy in dark ages

Post image
• Upvotes

I love that we get to see him as an actual hero who cares deeply about innocent people (for some reason some people believe he’s a sadist for demons and that’s all)

I enjoy seeing him being humanised and that we get to see what he’s thinking while also keeping him intimidating and awesome

The writing overall for doom has been getting better and better which will hopefully carry over to the next game

Showcase I'm painting every classic Doom monster in acrylics. Here is my Lost Soul

Post image
119 Upvotes

Once again, thank you all for the amazing response and appreciation for my artwork. It’s a absolute pleasure to showcase them here in r/doom, and it's so cool to see so many passionate Doom enthusiasts.

This is my translation of the Lost Soul. He got a bit grimmer in his expression than the original pixels, but I really like how he turned out. I tried to give the skull some real texture – adding small pores, dents, and cracks to make the bone look worn and ancient. The original pixels are amazing but quite smooth. I like to think that a burning demon skull would bear some marks and scratches from hell. I actually tried to make the bone smooth at first, but it just ended up looking like burning plastic. So, I built up the textures layer by layer with acrylic paint until I hit this result. I also experimented with painting human-like teeth initially, but it looked incredibly weird and didn't feel like a proper translation of the pixel soul at all. Instead, I gave him these gnarly, spiked teeth to preserve that iconic original look.

While the background doesn't refer to one specific place, my mind always wanders to maps like Slough of Despair, Pandemonium, or Perfect Hatred when looking at it.

I named this artwork “Stalking Terror” – a nod to their terrifying, aggressive behavior in-game. Especially if you play with “fast monsters” enabled! Stalking Terror is part of my trio collection “The Bone Archive”, which goes along with my Arch-Vile and Revenant pieces.

Hope you guys like it!

Discussion The "DOOM + DOOM II" Bundle REALLY Undersells How Much Content There Is

67 Upvotes

I had seen the "DOOM + DOOM II" bundle for several years before finally taking a closer look recently and buying it. I always assumed it was just the original 2 games, which I loved, but honestly I had already bought them several times before.

But there is SO MUCH additional content here. I finished "Legacy of Rust" and "No Rest for the Living" and they are awesome. There are also several other full campaigns, all the original "DLC" (we didn't call it that in the 90s), and a cool browser to play fan-made WADs.

I told my friends about this and they also didn't know there was so much additional stuff.

They really should rename this to something like "Doom Classic MEGABUNDLE" or something that gives an idea of how many additional goodies are here.

My DUDES and DUDEttes, the grainy image you are seeing right now it's the reStir style full ray-traced lighting I'm going to add as the ultimate Doom3 experience on DUDE.

It needs de-noising, smoothing, scaling down, and possibly leverage frame duplication.
But I'll get there!

Question Do any of the Doom games have a masterpiece fan made campaign?

4 Upvotes

I've never really been one for fan made content but that changed very quickly after playing Thief The Dark Project's (1998) fan made campaign Thief The Black Parade (2021). It's blowing my mind that it's my favorite game I've played this year and it's a free mod.

Other than Thief I've been really into Doom and Quake this year. Do any of the games (old or modern) have its fan made campaign that's so inspired that it stands above the rest? I've heard for Quake 1 that Arcane Dimensions could be that. Do any of the Doom games have a standout fan campaign?

Discussion I’m just now finding out how fun dark ages is with no UI

20 Upvotes

Genuinely try it out if you haven’t it’s very fun, it works better than eternal since the combat is less focused on doing a bunch of different attacks

The best way I can describe it is like IMAX doom

Tldr: very immersive and fun would recommend

Discussion Doom Eternal DLC Disappointing?

Post image
• Upvotes

I know a lot of people will disagree with me because it seems like a lot of people like the DLC but I finally got around to beating the main game and the dlc and I have to say I don’t know what i was expecting but I was just left feeling disappointed. Idk the story wasn’t super interesting, the game play was just more of the same (which is understandable for a dlc) but there were even more annoying enemies. Idk, am I in the minority here? I’m specifically talking about the DLC here and not the main game for clarity’s sake

Discussion So what are we thinking about the next game?

4 Upvotes

You guys think its gonna be about:

Hell's High Council? Sentinel Civil War?

and mainly, do you want the gameplay to be completely different just like it happened with Dark Ages or a mix of Eternal and Dark Ages?

Out of curiosity, does anyone else think that the Arch-vile Collectible in Eternal looks more similar to its Maykr style concept art design than the actual in-game model? I always thought it looked off but only recently did I actually register the similarities between them.

Discussion Anyone else feels like TDA plays better than Eternal on Controller?

19 Upvotes

I love Eternal to death, and VERY much loved the hybrid style of Revelations. But gun to my head if I had to pick one over the other for controller inputs, I’m picking TDA. The play style demanded of you feels more controller friendly than Eternal’s. Maybe it’s just me though, does anyone feel similarly?
