[Request] Top-down sprites

Post by Spleen »

Do any decent quality top-down sprites of any DOOM monsters exist? Preferably humanoid ones.

By top-down, what I mean is: imagine DOOM monsters were actually models. Now imagine you're looking at them straight down, from above.

If not DOOM, then maybe Heretic or Hexen at least..


Reason for this request: I'm thinking of implementing a feature where you see the top of the monster if you look at them straight down from above. I'm assuming this would look better than the current 2 alternatives with billboarding, both of which honestly look like crap if you look at the monster straight down from above. However, I'd need at least one decent top-down sprite for use in a testing prototype. It's hard to tell whether it looks better, if I use my crappy artwork to test! :P

Yeah, this isn't the first time I'm asking for this. But this is the first time I decided to go ahead and make a topic, since nobody seemed to find any anywhere.


If you find any of those monsters as a realistic-looking top-down sprite, that would be awesome!
