Here's what John Romero, one of the creators of Doom, got for his Christmas: a sculpture inspired by the iconic "Icon of Sin" final level of Doom II. You can find the worklog of this build at Hite Studios.

The Romero’s have purchased the “Icons of Doom” sculpture. My 6 year old son Lucian and I met up with John and Brenda for breakfast while they were in Anaheim this past Sunday. We had a terrific time talking with them and their young son Donovan about all kinds of games including Doom. Not to mention, Brenda’s fantastic board games that I must play! John even told me the story about his decapitated head in the Icon of Sin level. According to Brenda Ramero, over a hundred people told her about my sculpture online, sending them links, so they were happy to get the piece and I was absolutely thrilled to hang out with them. I have plans to do more Doom inspired sculpture in the form of a fan film so stay tuned!
