Taking awesome Skiffy scans of John Schoenherr's art from the original Illustrated Dune (http://ski-ffy.blogspot.com/2010/08/ill ... -dune.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) that inhuien posted in the Dune Art thread and doin' a quick "Curves" in Photoshop, then saving as a non-lossy GIF

(Just the black and white ones - ignore any "missing" images, I just copy-pasted the links - might add the coloured ones for completeness at some point)

Wow, that's some good stuff you got right there.

Schoenherr is the absolute best Dune artist. The Defeat of the Sardaukar should be on a cover, it's excellent, probably my favorite Dune picture. I'd never seen this black and white ones before. Nice!

As far as I'm concerned he's THE Dune artist, end of story. Everyone else's stuff is perfectly fine, but he just owns it. Plus he was involved right from the very beginning.

Good job Dunefish

Nice.

Bollocks, managed to omit Doctor Kynes! He's up now.

Literally just knocked the white up to obscure the text showing through from the back of the page, and dropped the black down to obscure any jpeg artefacts. Not rocket science

Schoenherr is awesome, and these really do scrub up beautifully

This is excellent. I particularly love the Muad'dib picture (with the mouse).

Allthough I don't much like his pen & ink on paper style, I do like that one a lot.

A re touch of skiffy's The Defeat Of The Sarduakar, The goal here was to bring our fine detail but without introducing to much noise, and give it an oil on canvas feel. I feel it's a little off the mark, but in my defence I'm a newb at Picasa.



I've been meaning to link to this site for a while, http://www.psykopaint.com/ sure it just nonsense but there's fun to be had.

Nice job, thanks for saving us all the trouble And completely agree that Schoenherr is THE Dune artist.
