I LOVE DUNE... the book, I mean. With so much visual coolness to draw from and such a rich story, it baffles me how cinema has missed the mark. Clearly, with a book, there is room for interpretation, and I have always interpreted Dune as a story about the making of a terrorist leader. The worms were always an interesting element. Paul Muad'Dib used the Fremen myths about Shai-hulud (the maker) and the prophesies about Lisan Al Gaib (the voice from the outer world) as a means to build an army and exact his revenge. This drawing is my take on the sandworms.
