Monsters/Creatures made of sectors - My favorite kind of doomcute

[dashlet]

I always been very fond of creatures made using level geometry. Is such a fun detail to have laying around in your map. Personally seeing them evokes all kind of happy childhood memories, mostly because when i was a kid i used to draw all kind of creatures and construct dragon/dinosaur like toys with my father out of whatever material i have at my disposal. Anyways, here ill like to share some sector monsters that quickly come to mind when thinking about Doom. Feel free to share other ones you are aware of.

 

Not Even Remotely Fair - MAP15: Break From Blood (by Christophine Place)

A dragon! I love dragons, sad to see that this one is dead...

Spoiler

 

Hardfest II - MAP01: Nihil (by Worriedidiot)

Simple yet elegant. Using raising and lowering ceilings to make a sector monster blink is genius.

Spoiler

 

worm\V/wood - MAP03: After Image (by Ribbiks)

Im not sure if Ribbiks has done this many times (I do know for a fact that he has created a whole map shaped like a cat). Anyways, i like how the hellknights seem to worship this creature.

Spoiler

 

50 Shades of Graytall - MAP16: Mr. Graytall (by TimeOfDeath)

Not a surprise to see ToD do something like this. Using sector monsters to act as some kind of final boss seems to be the perfect replacement for an Icon of Sin.

Spoiler

 

Going Down - MAP20: The Mouth of Madness (by mouldy)

Probably the most famous sector monster of them all. The whole gimmick of a very memorable map. 

Spoiler

 

Boaty McBoatwad - MAP12: Beelzeboat and MAP14: Ferrytale (both by Muumi)

Just awesome. I love these, probably some of my favorite ones i had seen. Beelzeboat is just great. The hold idea of riding a huge dead leviathan like creature in the middle of a hellish void is a nice twist to the whole gimmick of the mapset. I wonder if it was inspired by SCP - 5005 in any way...

Spoiler

 

skill5 - MAP04: True Hell (by me)

Lastly i wanted to share a sector monster created by me. Probably inspired by those brushes monster found in GoldSrc/Source maps.

What's a "hold map" or a "hold gimmick"?

... Wait, do you actually mean to be using "whole," as in, "entire"?

[Laocoön]

Here's one I made

[Lizardcommando]

Does a disassembled robot count?

 

 

It's supposed to be the remains of the Vanguardroid MK3 from my Lizard Squad mod.

[RichardDS90]

No love for this geezer yet?!

[S3M_XM]

The ending of PhoboChromaPhobia (dbk-pcp)

[Nikku4211]

Do polyobjects count or do I need to wait for a 'Creatures Made of Linedefs' thread?

While I don't have any actual implementations of this idea to screenshot, years ago when I was making a map for Joy of Mapping 4, I did have an idea for a boss that was made of polyobjects for a ZDoom map, with custom textures. The idea never came to fruition though, especially as I've mostly moved on from making (G)ZDoom-related stuff entirely since making the map I actually submitted there.

Map30 of 32OF64-V.WAD

 

[Steve D]

The Abominable Snowman of Death, from Realm of Chaos 2, Map 10, The Tank Factory, by me. RC1 later this month.

 

[Firedust]

I can't remember which map had them, but PRCP 2 crocodiles were adorbs.

[Shepardus]

Maskim Xul has gaping mouths that fire projectiles at you and which you're supposed to shoot to close. Screenshot taken from MtPain27's review since I don't feel like replaying the map right now to get a screenshot myself:

 

Incidentally, the set for that video also features its own sector monster, named Gary:

It's sick!

[galileo31dos01]

First that came to mind:

 

 

This is from "The Terraces" by Bauul. This shot was taken from an angle you'd normally wouldn't be able to reach, only purpose was to capture the complete side of the creature. If you wanna see the mouth, you gotta see for yourself (do it!) :)

[Egregor]

From my CCC2 map!

[Amaruq Wulfe]

E2M4 - This possessed stack of computers.

Damn, that's absolutely gorgeous sector work.

[DoomGappy]

@The Royal We has made a very vool little creature in homage to the one in E2M4.

In recent times, I remember @brullov's OutPost 13 final room!
