A quick Fear and Torment piece I whipped up! I really dig the vibes of the games, I recently binged a lot of videos about it
This piece and the slogan aren't actually based on anything in the game necessarily, just a neat idea I had that would make for a cool composition and theme :D

A symbol of resistance
Charlemagne Péralte
Charlemagne Péralte was a Haitian resistance leader shot by U.S. forces during the 1915 occupation.
After Péralte's death, U.S. troops displayed his body posed in a way that resembled a crucifixion – tied upright with a Haitian flag draped over him. This photo was intended to intimidate the Haitian population.
However, it backfired. The image resonated with Haitians, making Péralte a martyr and a symbol of resistance. There's even a famous Haitian painting called "The Crucifixion of Charlemagne Péralte for Freedom."
