Lookes like Cannes, 1993. Maybe it was a promo poster for the Lynch movie.

It was the cover to a Dune board game that was made into a poster. Or it could have been the other way around, I dont know. IIRC the game was British and the poster was for a French attraction. I have a link on the secondary sources link under gaming. Look at the RPG's, not the PC games.

I think there is credit given in the link I was referring to. Check it out. It may be that it was taken for the game and the poster from something else, or commissioned from that artist for one or the other.

The Golden Ass...I mean, Ace is evidently a gaming prize that this one won:

This doesn't appear in the lists given on WP, tho.

Hmm...false advertising?

That almost looks like Tom Baxa's artwork, but the signature isn't right.

Hey, can we get people to fill this thread with all those cool pictures there we had in a similar thread on dunenovels? There was a bunch of good ones. A lot of good pictures were found on deviantART

If you want to make it a picture we can see on the screen right away, enclose the address with [img*][*/img] tags(without the *).
But for multiple big pictures I think URL links like you did is better off.

I think it looks nice, but too full of inconsistencies. Is the last pic one of Leto II and Ghanima? They have reddish hair, you know, just one of those inconsistencies.

Ahh, Rabban and Feyd with orange hair, Leto II and Ghani with black...can't those damn artists and film makers read a book?
Better yet, can't they runa search of PDF? "Hair" in CoD immidietly comes up with the fact they have red hair(as do their "decoys" on SS.
In memory of Perach, who suffered and died needlessly.

I wish I could have been with you that one last time.

I pretty much just like the ones of the worm, but thought I'd post the rest. I agree, and some of them don't seem to actually have anything to do with Dune other than blue eyes.
