THE COVER IMAGE FOR DELTA GREEN: OPERATIONAL HISTORY (Patreon)

This took me a LONG time to paint. It's a huge image, and it seemed like I would never escape it. But here it is. Zoom it. Look around. See what you can spot.

It depicts the 1955 rampage of Delta Green agent Daniel Freis on the Delta Green archives, which all but destroyed the early history of the group.

"On 13 JAN 1955, Daniel Freis, one of the original Black Chamber cryptographers who had translated The Book of Dagon—and Delta Green’s most gifted researcher—suffered a mental collapse and went on a rampage in Delta Green’s archives. After attacking several personnel with a fire axe, he set fire to the central archives. The resulting blaze destroyed all the materials seized during the Innsmouth raid. Freis even smashed the original stone tablets of The Book of Dagon to bits. Most materials from World War II were also destroyed."
