Dune - St Alia of the Knifeby *gorrem

Digital Art / Paintings & Airbrushing / Illustrations / Storybook

St. Alia Atreides at age 17. I imagine somewhere between Children and Messiah when she is beginning to adopt her role as a religious figure among the Fremen.

I wanted it to be a sort of classic portraiture of her, which I rendered first, and then I later thought it would be cool to frame her with a window shaped like a rising sandworm.

If you're wondering why she is so colorful, it is because my readings of Herbert's Dune has always used color very symbolically and very vividly to describe clothes.

I like that you really went all-out on the costume detail here. Any particular influence there? It looks Asian and Middle Eastern at the same time.
