printz Posted February 23, 2012 What I think has never happened and I find surprising is someone making a sprite of Doomguy without his boring helmet. With the helmet on, he loses in personality, because there may be anyone under that mask, not just our hero. 0 Share this post Link to post
Enjay Posted February 23, 2012 A few people have done it. My effort can be found in this skin pack. http://www.doomworld.com/idgames/index.php?id=12091 Not sure where to get others. 0 Share this post Link to post
Avoozl Posted February 23, 2012 I wonder why they still used the original Doomguy sprite with his helmet on in Doom 2 when the box art shows him without it, not to mention a slightly different looking uniform. 0 Share this post Link to post

Because they were too lazy to draw a different set of sprites. Also the subject of how much approximation and artistic license goes into box cover art, has been done to death. 0 Share this post Link to post

Avoozl Posted February 23, 2012 Well he couldn't be a strogg as the strogg didn't exist until some time later in the future, probably around the time mars has already been colonzied and humans have already achieved the hyperspace ability with their ships ala Quake 4. 0 Share this post Link to post
