Wow! Nice! 
Is the Arabic calligraphy original, or did you base it on something?

I scanned it from somewhere, used to know what it means, but I've forgotten since ( it's been 6 or 7 years since I made those illustrations ).

Re: Dune Art
Thanks. I've been through a lot lately, drawing relaxes me... if anyone wants to see my rendition of some (simple) scene from the books, I'd be happy to make something

Re: Dune Art
Sounds cool! I don't have any scenes in mind, but I like your style. Just make sure the chairdog doesn't bite when you sit down to draw. Seems like it would be painful.

Re: Dune Art
I'd love to see anything more frankly, give me a sandworm, tri-jawed like Schoenherr always did them! Your work is great.

Re: Dune Art
does a chairdog feel the need to pee in every corner of the room ?
Just a thought though, apart from that please show us more
Open your own thread I think it's well deserved ^^
EDIT TO ADD
do you draw scenery as well ?

Heard yelled from a Harkkonen kitchen during a dinner party:
"Abulurd?!?! Please stop the ottomandog from humping our guest's leg!!!"

Re: Dune Art
Is that Cyrillic on the bottom of that picture? And that looks like a dead worm to me. Is that what it is?

Re: Dune Art
would it represent the ritual death of a worm (to produce the Water of Life) ?
I always envisonned some form of mist/vapour reaction when putting water in the presence of the embodiement of the scorching desert.

Re: Dune Art
Mmmm... but remember they used the stunted worms for that. And I'm thinking they did it indoors (inseals? insietch?
), so....

Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.

Well... only if the book has "Kevin J. Anderson" on the cover.

Re: Dune Art
They did the drowning scene for the 1984 movie but of course it was cut.
It kind of reminded my of Hillbilly Handfishin'.

In the new movie they should have Les Stroud pee on it.

You mean maker hooks in hands, hands cupped behind his head- dong out and unleashing? It would go well with the McDune approach...Freakzilla wrote:In the new movie they should have Les Stroud pee on it.
Also, Tleilaxitive, I'd like to see more of your work...
