After seeing the newly released images of Dune featured on the Vanity Fair website, I decided to have some fun with them and create some edits. I’ve been toying around with a couple of ideas and finally came up with the following.

I used some of the techniques I’ve just learned to add colouring and mask out the other subject in the image, so Paul Atreides is standing alone. I think this is a powerful image, and I enjoyed making it.

I also wanted to use the newly transparent image I had created of Timothee Chalamet in a motion art animation. I toyed with a few ideas and different designs and came up with this:

I knew that I wanted to feature Paul and the official Dune logo and lettering in the same image. And I really wanted to showcase the sun of Arrakis surrounding Paul but also making him a part of it. And of course, the Dune lettering in the background completes the image.

EDITOR UPDATE: I added this late, sorry to anyone that may have been looking for this image. It’s online now! Enjoy.
