You guess the Arachnotrons had to come from somewhere. Hi, mom. She doesn't have a Plasma Gun, so thank heaven for small favours. Instead, she's got a Super Chaingun...

Though the Spiderdemon is formidable, it's a pretty underwhelming boss in contrast with the Cyberdemon.

Had an idea of making a HD sprites for DooM source ports ever crossed your mind?

MrBrownymaster Featured By Owner Oct 17, 2014

OMG it's so awsome you must make a game with this art

AthylCentaur Featured By Owner Edited Oct 6, 2014

Oh, it could be a realistic and demonic version of Krang, the villain in “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles”.
I love.

my face when I get up

ironically, I saw this while listening to the doom OST: Dis

now he looks a "hell" of a lot more scary, but his original is still the most menacing.

PedroTum Featured By Owner Jul 7, 2014

I beat it just recently using the Brutal Doom Mod, even with the BFG it destroyed my ass many times before i could defeat it. Epic fight.
Anyway, amazing art.

Invaders from mars 1986.

AzulNaranja Featured By Owner Oct 10, 2013

Oh, yes! Thank you for drawing DOOM monsters. I always want to see them so real and creepy as they deserve.

Aqua311 Featured By Owner Sep 29, 2013

Kinda reminds me of Metroid's Mother Brain.

Wish the game went into more detail about how the Spider Mastermind invaded the moons of Mars.

punchatz Featured By Owner Aug 22, 2013

Its so very cool and humbling that people recreate my creations from all those years ago...thanks! and nice work!!

Emortal982 Featured By Owner Aug 22, 2013

Thank you very much!!! It was iconic characters such as these that fueled my passion for illustration, and kept me pushing myself to go further with each drawing. Your contribution to the Doom series definitely sparked my imagination as well as that of millions of kids who were fortunate enough to grow up with such gems. With that, I think I owe you a huge thanks.

MISTERAMD Featured By Owner Aug 22, 2013

I do hope they put this in their remake of Doom II : Hell On Earth

Shackille Featured By Owner Jul 31, 2013

I remember the first time I had seen the Spider Mastermind, I was like "OMG it's Krang from TMNT and he is pissed!"

super awesome.

Emortal982 Featured By Owner May 20, 2013

Awesome! Thanks

.. There will definitely be more Doom art coming soon, so feel free to share the additional pieces as you please.

Silentionoctis Featured By Owner May 19, 2013

Evil sonaba..

She looks so angry and amazing, beautiful job friend. Please do more Doom stuff, maybe a baron or hell knight

Emortal982 Featured By Owner May 19, 2013

Thanks

. My current plan is to render every enemy from Doom/DoomII. Baron of hell and Hell Knight will probably just be one rendering, since they were pretty much just palette swaps. The same may go for the arachnatron and spider mastermind, since they are just extremely similar. Either way, there will definitely be more Doom art coming.

Agent-Chris Featured By Owner May 18, 2013

Saw your other D00M fan art as well. This one and the Revenant are two of the best I've seen yet.
You've done a great job with the rendering and design on both of them.

Looks like you struggled a bit with the arm on the left. It's flat and looks out of place.
Other than that the piece is pretty damn bad ass. The dof effects are a really nice touch and complements the texture of the brainhead and the wrinkled skin on the opposite arm. I'd love it if you didn't mind checking out my D00M fan art and maybe share your thoughts. I'm trying to create a collection of all the characters from the game and my style and technique is all over the place. I'm thinking about just making portraits like yours cause making full scale paintings with backgrounds is way too advanced for me.

Cheers.

Emortal982 Featured By Owner May 19, 2013

You're totally right. I might have to revisit that arm once I get around to rendering the other Doom characters. I plan on doing a version of all the Doom baddies, so I still have quite a few to go. But once I get the majority of them done, I think I'll revisit the ones that have any lackluster bits screaming out for more attention.

Walking brains... WITH A CHAIN GUN AT ITS CROTCH!
I always found these things funny looking haha!

Emortal982 Featured By Owner May 16, 2013

hehe.. yah when ya put it that way. Still it's not quite as funny looking as the Ninja Turtles equivalent. Considering the positioning on that one, I hesitate to wonder where the control stick is located.
