Visualy impressive maps

Doom engine is pretty damn dated and even ports like GZdoom aren't going to change that. On the other hand, even on this dated engine, sometimes I encounter maps that make me say "Woah! This is fucking awesome!"

This thread is dedicated to those maps. Post maps (with screenshots) that impressed you with their looks - gameplay in this case is not important - it's just look and atmosphere.

I'll start with:
Spoiler: This push map (Open)

Spoiler: Another push map (Open)

Spoiler: gravity.wad (Open)

Spoiler: Torn City from Who Dun It (Open)

And wad from this youtube video:

[Edit]Forgot about some old map, I think made by Xsnake in map pack Invasion UAC with underwater lab with huge fucking lion walls placed outside. It was pretty damn awesome too, unfortunately I can't provide screenshot for it right now.

BTSX maps look pretty outstanding thanks to simple, clean architecture and a fresh, unified textureset with careful attention to lightinig and complex vanilla tricks.

Also, generally anything Mechadon makes or has ever made looks incredible. See: Supplice, Vela Pax, his IGPack maps.

Hell, IGPack in general looks sick.
