      Wasn’t the zombies.

      It was a texture for a human model that’s basically a decaying, mostly clothed corpse, found in various places, usually either in the canals, or in Nova Prospekt, in torture chairs.

      They may have also used actual pictures of dead bodies for the uh, charple model as well, which is basically a completely incinerated human body…

      … it looks like the people that got burned beyond a crisp in the highway of death, from the Gulf War, if you’ve ever seen actual pictures from that.

      corspe01 is the one confirmed to be based on an actual corpse, charple is the severely burned one.

      I… genuinely do not recommend looking up graphic pictures from the highway of death, if you are squeamish. They are horrific.

      SpecOps the Line has a … very brutal scene where something similar to the highway of death, or what Israel has been doing to the Palestinians for the past 2 years… a massive WP strike gets called in, and… that shit will just keep burning.
