Doom art on walls in house?

[invictius]

Come across heaps of printer ink and photo paper.  Next to the family photos I was going to do floorplans of wads, empty level screenshots etc.  Anyone else done this, or with similar art?

[RDETalus]

Yes, I print out screenshots of my levels on glossy photo paper and leave them all over the house. It's a strong motivator to finish my levels.

 

 

I also have an actual painting I've been working on, still trying to decide what wall texture I should use behind the skull head switch:

Hey, that's pretty cool, @RDETalus

 

I'd consider a print of either Doom/Doom 2 cover art, since those images have been engrained in my head for over two decades. 

 

I'd also like a print of the true beach ending of myhouse.wad, since that's lived rent free in my head.

This makes me want a Doom Picross spin-off now.

@RDETalus I love your printed screenshots, could be an amazing coffee table book!

I really like the idea of the printed screenshots.

 

I may start doing this myself!

It's a more romantic, engaging way of appreciating your own levels compared to staring at them on a computer screen. I give the photos to my baby first so he bends and scratches them to imbue a vintage "aged" look.

I love the idea of an art book for mappers, I imagine you could make one on Snapfish or similar sites without too much trouble. would also be a really great way to journal map inspiration and mapping journey growth, kinda like a dev diary.

I don’t think that my spouse will agree if I change the light switches with these. :-\

There's part of me that actually wants to print this out and have it on the wall:

But please don’t shoot it with the super shotgun.

Sorry levels aren't done yet, most likely next year

My wife has expressed interest a couple of times in printing and framing versions of the map layouts to Elementalism. I think she just really likes how they look.

You saying this makes me want to make one from screenshots of my own maps.
