Doomguy download link: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/79040827/Video%20Games/Unreal%20Tournament%202004/Doomguy.zip
Old post:
The third (edit: only) screenshot is Doomguy helmetless, holding his only friend (ever mentioned), recently murdered by demons. This is the final screenshot from Ultimate Doom, just before Doom 2 takes place. The other 2 were included mainly so you didn't think I am on drugs, after our talk on the server. If you could get the bunny's head tied to the toolbelt, in the hand, anything would be fine, really. Doesn't have to be bloody, although Doomguy should be. Hoping for a skin to resemble the third screenshot, essentially. To me it was one of the peak moments of video gaming.
Also, after a side by side comparison, Jakob is dressed incredibly similar to Doomguy. Just a note, maybe it helps you somehow.
If this is unreasonable, a more generic Doomguy with his helmet on would be fine, too.

Current Progress: Done
Last Updated: 4/16/2013
Old Post:
What do you think? Helmet or no helmet? The front of the face would still be visible because the visor is transparent.
If either, could I use the health head that shows up in the HUD as reference?
The reason why I was confused by the rabbit was because I had never played Doom on the hardest setting, preventing me from ever reaching the "real" end. Now I feel like I've missed out!
Uh-oh, it looks like someone is already working on him (or done), albeit with a visor (and no face) and no rabbit located here: http://forums.epicgames.com/threads/928158-the-Expendables
Go to the sixth post and I believe there's a link to the skin. I've posted on the EpicGames forums asking about the skin's progress. I'm waiting for a reply.

Aww snap. Well, if you do the skin, helmetless would be pretty sweet, although either is fine. If you do helmetless, DOOM 2's intro screen also has another shot of his hair, which is not clear in the HUD. The HUD face would be totally fine.
You should feel totally free to make it your own though, and you would get more recognition with the helmeted version. The helmeted version would feel closer to home to a lot of people since DOOM's multiplayer was the first popular deathmatch FPS and that is who you saw. I've wasted many hours on Plutonia's level 30 deathmatch area myself, even.
My backup request is Max from Streets of Rage 2, and failing that, Venom.

Oh I'll get this Doomguy for you. Don't you worry! It'll be an exact description of what you want. Because the model that is being made by someone else has the helmet and probably no rabbit, this model will be unique. I'll get started and update you with the first post I created on this thread.
Heck, Doomguy can come with or without a helmet in the same pack. Two Doomguys but different appearance.

That is too awesome. I could use helmet Doomguy with Eng/MM/hybrids and helmetless for WM/AM/hybrids.
Do you mind if I do a voice/sound pack to go with?

Does Doomguy talk? I didn't know that lol. Yeah go ahead, but you should make sure someone else hasn't made one already.
Also, can I get more references for what he should look like? Most of what I'm finding shows Doomguy with different-looking armor and such.

I googled it and found a "Doom Voice pack" but it turned out to be evil voices rather than anything related to the game.
Doomguy doesn't talk at all, only makes 3 sounds - 2 deaths and 1 pain. I would probably use just one of those for the orders and then spread out the rest of the monster sounds for taunts and just name them after the monster. There's not a really good way to do it but I totally need to be able to make that screaming death sound. The revenant beatdown is also quite comical.
Regarding the armor -
After more closely looking at cover shots and such, I think I figured out why Doomguy's abs look so funny in the final screenshot of Ultimate Doom. They look like they were originally the cloth of the marine outfit (as seen on the little guy off in the distance), and then colored to flesh tone to match the ripped shirt from the Boxart/intro screen. They did repurpose artwork a lot, as you can see in the image below. So, I would just use the cloth version, shown in the little guy off in the distance, since he is apparently wearing cloth under the armor at all times. Guess it's just ripped in most of the art.
In this image is the little guy off in the distance and the main Doomguy (found in a poster scan on Doomworld), along with 3 shots of Doomguy from the actual Doom game. Unfortunately, Doomguy's actual ingame resolution is only roughly 30x50, so not exactly a high resolution reference there. I don't think there is *any* artwork of Doomguy's back, other than the ugly version of him in the Doom 2 intro screen.

Nice research. Definitely helps a lot. I'll go ahead and merge all these ideas and let you know (and show you) how it all works out.
Are you sure the clothing thing applies to the abs? In the final ending picture, he's shown without a shirt underneath. Then again the box art shows him having green cloth (as opposed to peach). It probably comes down to what you want. Cloth or abs. Lol.

Ingame he actually has a grey shirt underneath the armor, and in the Doom 2 boxart/intro he has a black shirt underneath. I also just realized the shape of the armor around the abs is different between the intro screen and the end screen. I think either green or dark grey shirt would be best, along with the armor that goes up around the abs, personally. What do you think?

Dark gray sounds good to me.
Voice/sound pack is done. Do we post them separately or are they going together? Either is fine to me. Temporary download link
Going to start condensing my posts and pictures so new readers don't see a wall of text and so I'm not hosting a bunch of pics.
Also, I believe we had a miscommunication before. What I meant by recolored abs was that it looked to me like they were originally going to have an undershirt in the final screen, and then changed it to abs simply by recoloring.

You can handle the voice pack in either manner. I'll include it in this skin with your permission.
Sorry, I was probably "spaced out" when I read your post before about the shirt.

What do you think of the model (and maybe colors) so far? The geometry should be deemed "final" before I go ahead and unwrap it and get it texture-ready. That's why I ask. (4/1/2013)
