I read Dune a few months ago, and now I'm reading it again (it ruled). This is how I invisioned Chani:

That, sir, is some dope shizfizzle. Nice crepuscular rays, and it's a technical achievement in itself to have created a beautiful woman that doesn't look like anyone familiar.
My only grief (a minor one) comes with how you rendered the sand dunes. I would done away with the waving ripples entirely and just used the hard-edged dunes you have underlying them.

Awesome work Cicinimo. Dune rules.
Only thing that comes to mind is that Chani looks a bit "water fat" to be Fremen. Also, it's hard to see, but there might be a little bit of blue in those eyes? Haha, spot the Dune nerd!
I really like the overall feel of the piece, very atmospheric. |

Impaler: What are crepuscular rays?. Yeah, I dont think the nini dunes on the dunes were very effective. Thanks for the feedback!
Capt. Fred: Thanks again!
Ceenda: Heheh, water fat. Thankyou

I'll second that. Great site too. Loads of variety and invention. Keep it up.
Could this be the beginning of a Dune thread? I know myself, ceenda and the Hawaiian have done Dune pictures.

Crepuscular rays are those golden rays of sunlight you have filtering through the atmosphere from behind the clouds.

Woah Dune!!! Awesome Chani (except that I'll have to vouch that the eyes should kinda be a raidant blue).
What about the water rings/hoops? It's been quite a while since I read Dune, so I can't recall where they wore them (waist or neck?). As well just that little bit about the sand - I always imagined it to be more red, but that might be because I've been corrupted by the cover on my ed. of the novel...
Geez, now I wanna draw some Dune stuff too
Keep up the inspiring work Cicinimo!

I'm always up for painting dust and rocks 
Dune was the story that inspired me to start creating fictional worlds as a pastime. here's a quick one, about 45 mintes' work.
inspiration lasted longer than expected, here's another one

Took the words right out of my mouth.
This is a quick and sketchy concept that never really got into "finished" status:
Though I'll try and do something new for this.

Not sure if I'm doing this right...
I like the picture you'w got a nice colour tone in it...
Only thing that looks a little wierd is that it looks like a photo on the upper half (the sky) and a painting in the lower part of the picture (the woman).
I like the light on the characters forhead:D
