i know when to hide

[bantha_fodder]

This started quite innocently - I thought I would make a few icons of Irulan. But I started capping and going through my caps, and I started iconing and I could not stop. As I have stated on many an occasion, Dune and Children of Dune are both visually quite stunning. I've shared caps to illustrate its beauty, and if I have not yet convinced you then there's really nothing left for me to say.

For those of you whom I have convinced, under the cut I have eighty-seven (87 OMG) icons from both minis. Some are icons, and some are bases. They're all mixed together. You are welcome to use them straight, or modify. I don't need comments, and I don't need credit, but if you do modify them please do tell me so that I can see what you've done with them. And whilst I say I don't mind if you don't comment, at the same time if you wanted to validate my love/obsession, I wouldn't mind.

I tried not to icon the twins. But you know, the twins, they are aksjlkasdff. So.

Fun, fun set! They're just lovely. I adore the funny hats of the Bene Gesserit but my favourite images have to be of the twins. Just as you said: you can't icon without 'em!

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[rawthorne.livejournal.com]

Gosh, I thought I'd have one look over the whole bunch and be all "oh yeah, twins are the best". Except, well you know, they're not. I mean, they're very good, but they're not my favs. The Bene Gesserits, the ones of Feyd and Irulan and the amazing Miscellaneous icons absolutely take my breath away. Good job!

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

I love, in the miscellaneous icons, the random one of Rabban in read in the middle of a sea of dead Fremen. I think that's one of my favourite shots ever.

I'm glad you found more to like here than just the twins!

I am taking a Leto/Ghanima, Pen! And I would take Irulan in her hood looking all sweet and nun-y, but I don't think that's from CoD and I have a rule against icons that I haven't seen the source of.

WELL DONE, though! Especially with the Alia ones.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

WELL, YOU BIG HO.

Will any of these do?





pee ess I am so in love with Alia at the moment. SO BEAUTIFUL.

[hobviously.livejournal.com]

YES OMG. With the THRONE. 4< !!!!!

I actually capped a fair bit when I was watching. Remind me to either give the caps to somebody who isn't lazy or else make icons myself!

Empress Irulan Corrino from the "Children of Dune"

[(Anonymous)]

I really do like the shining golden-yellow Imperial Court morning gown that Princess Irulan Corrino was wearing when she became an Empress after her parents' untimely deaths.

I saw some pictures of her wearing it at the throne room of the Arrakeen Palace and the Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam's prison cell.

OMG!!! Leto/Ghanima!!!*____* They're sooooo lovely together!*____*

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

This statement is completely true!

[jessicaj703.livejournal.com]

I so adore these! (I actually re-watched CoD this weekend, which I had been wanting to do for weeks! Such glee!) I snagged a couple of the twins and Chani. I'd think there'd be more capping goodness of Irulan from CoD, and what about (ugh, blanking on his name, Ghanima's husband)? There must be some nice ones in there somewhere if you're ever looking to make more. :) Thanks!

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

I have updated this post with a handful more of Irulan from CoD. And there are some great opportunities for icons of Farad'n, this is true, except for the fact that I don't like him! So. I should have iconed more of Duncan, though.

[jessicaj703.livejournal.com]

Very nice! I liked Irulan's hairstyles a lot more in CoD than in Dune. And you really don't like Farad'n? (Thanks for the name, btw.) He wasn't so great in the book, but he tattled on the evil Susan Sarandon and got her taken away as a present for Ghani. Gotta give him some props. :)

[nautnee.livejournal.com]

These are beautiful. I am taking some of the twins, Chani and Irulan and will give you credit. Thanks!

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Irulan deserves to be on more icons.

[layangabi.livejournal.com]

These are so very very lovely. :D Taking some Irulan , with credit.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! Irulan is a delight, you know. I'm glad you wanted to take icons of her.

[monicaop.livejournal.com]

Wow!! I loved them all!!! I'm taking some Irulan's ones, they are all just awesome :D, hugs!! And thanks for all this art, hugs!! Be well and take care, Monica

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm glad that you like them!

[resmin.livejournal.com]

Well I know what I'm doing tonight. It's miniseries time!

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

OMG YAY DID YOU WATCH IT?

[resmin.livejournal.com]

I've gotten to the part where Jessica watches Paul and Chani go have sex. Then Chani does the sand drawing and REALIZATION DAWNS. WORMS = SPICE! It's very exciting. Tonight I shall finish and start the twinses.

Irulan has the best hats in the history of ever. EVER I SAY!

[ghanimasun]

love the children of dune icons, snagging a few. they are gorgeous.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. Enjoy them!

[galadrielriver.livejournal.com]

Snagged several of the twins. As far as I'm concern you can't have enough of the twins ;P

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

This is very true. Like I said, I did try not to make too many of the twins, because sometimes I feel my obsession with the twins is perhaps bordering on too much, and yet, they are so lovely! HOW COULD I NOT?

[galadrielriver.livejournal.com]

No,no,no. It's not an obsession it is an intense hobby. *g*

[zeplum.livejournal.com]

Okay, finally decided. Twins, Irulan x2 and the tarrot cards. Waiting to decide about the RevMothers though. And the Harkkonen stadium of doooooom.

I cannae wait till my book gets here! *twirls*

[mercurybard.livejournal.com]

Took one of Chani (sitting on the cliff). Nice work.

[eirendel.livejournal.com]

taking a few, will credit.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

cools.

[grimorie.livejournal.com]

I really love Irulan therefore, I will be taking your Irulan icons and will credit. Be thanking you.

[bantha-fodder.livejournal.com]

You are welcome! Irulan is very beautiful.

[grimorie.livejournal.com]

Hello! Passed by this post again and realized I must have the Reverend Mother and her big hats!
