Inspired by the upcoming release of Dune: Awakening, I created this piece as an excuse to experiment with a new illustration style. I stepped away from my usual workflow, exploring a retro-inspired approach that relied on textured shading and bold shapes instead of traditional line art.
The project pushed me to think differently about lighting, form, and composition, while experimenting with a more graphic, cinematic style than my previous illustrations.
