Description
Thought I'd have a go at creating an ornithopter from Frank Herberts's Dune. Hope I got the feel right.

Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much
Beautiful image, very very suggestive !!
Thank you
Great sci-fi scene!
Thank you so much. If anyone is interested I'm thinking of putting the ornithopter on site for people to use for free.
Another marvelous creation once again... It's an awesome image !!! Really AWESOME !!!
Thank you. Would you like the model?
Very dramatic and well done image!
Thank you.
Very interesting-looking aircraft, and superb mood and atmosphere. Where are the giant sandworms? :D
Trust me, the sandworms are coming. :) Thank you for your kind words.
Really fantastic. Gorgeous work!
Thank you, yet again, for your kind words. I'm currently working on a version of a troop carrier. Hopefully that will be on site with an appropriate quote from the book in a few days. (I tend to work on about 3 -4 images at the same time so I can step back and view them with a refreshed perspective after a break from working on an image).
I hadn't imagined them this way ( i saw them almost steampunk)... but this really feels right
Thank you for your kind words. I have to admit a struggle with some of Frank Herbert's descriptions. They seem to evolve over the book as he writes. Take a look at the different descriptions of the face masks and the nose plugs. It's all good fun, though. Yes, I agree, there does seem to be an element of steampunk probably because there are no computers allowed in the Dune Empire. I tried to reflect that in the wings. Thank you again.
