Description
Here we have Duncan Idaho from Frank Herbert's Dune series in his Fish Speaker Commander uniform. because I so love Duncan...I based him off Henry Cavill, an upcoming british actor... who I would cast in a heartbeat as Duncan if I were to make a Dune film. God Emperor of Dune film that is, I wouldn't revisit what's already been done.
this was an exercise in digital painting.. because I'm still not completely used to Painter...

Have you read The Butlerian Jihad or any of the House books? House Atreides/Harkonnen/Corrino or The Machine Crusade or Heretics of Dune? Yeah, best books I have ever read. Definitely one of my all time favorite series. Love it! I love your depiction of Duncan. I have not read the Mistborn series, but given your good taste in books, I will have to have a look.

The KJA/BH books are just glorified fanfic next to Frank Herbert's Original Six Dune novels. I do like this depiction of Duncan Idaho. There isn't much art around that's based on God Emperor of Dune, and this is a very good interpretation of Duncan.

eventually yes I'd like to revisit the Dune series. It's one of my favorites. But I'm actually reading Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series and it's really inspiring me to work on art related to that right now.

Amazing!
Duncan is my alter ego.
Thanks for this one.
I think this is one of the best Duncan's portraits.

This fits him perfectly! I'm not very good at picturing characters in much detail, while I'm reading; I just have sort of an idea, you know?
Now I know exactly what he looks like. Thank you. :] Can't wait to get back to God Emperor of Dune.

This is well done. Kind of what I have always pictured Duncan to look like. Being an advid fan of the series.

This is amazing...looks like a real painting (aka one done on canvas/paper). I have the total hots for Duncan, and you totally made him look as I have seen him in my head.
*sigh*

thank you for being the first...
yeah i was actually wondering how many like avid dune fans were out there who actually browse for dune art, more specifically duncan idaho...

Heh...I'm not exactly avid, really. I only just finished reading "Children of Dune", but Duncan Idaho is my boyfriend's favorite fictional character and he's read them all. I'll link this to him the next time he logs in.
But yeah, I was surprised how few images showed up when I hit that search. Of them, I can safely say that yours is my favorite. I really like your style.
