Dune Always Gets Me With The Prescience Thing.

Dune always gets me with the prescience thing.

Knowing every possible future can't be any form of freedom when you are chained to the only route that will save humanity. A route that kills 62 billion and counting in order to save the rest and it's all for a goal hundreds of millennia in the future.

By becoming the Kwisatz Haderach you have doomed the rest of your lineage to take part in your bloody work and have forever stained your beloved father's name.

The golden path is paved with blood on Atreides hands, but would not interfering make it any different? Can you justify the means if it means the survival of your race? Do you even deserve to survive after what you've done?

Does Paul(and Leto II) actually limit the possibilities through his/their own perception of the future? Could it have gone differently if humanity hadn't discovered the spice and interfered with time in the first place?

Or, like eating the one forbidden fruit in the middle of a garden, was this always the only option for us because humans can't help but fuck around and find out?

This is one part of a pair of painting that I'm working on. You Good Omens fans probably already know who's on the other part.

Please click on it to see it in better resolution 😅.

This portrait took me almost a week to finish, but I had a lot of fun working on this. I'm both glad and kinda sad it's finished already.

Surprisingly the hardest part to draw is that damned phone cord and it's many coils.

Wing Theory (not really im just thinking out loud)

Not having seen Aziraphale's wings since the end of season 1(chronologically speaking) has been haunting me. What would they look like after the appearance swap? After leaving heaven altogether?

Would they be black? Rejecting heaven and his angelic status resulting in his own choice to fall?

Would they still be white? A strong moral sense, a surety in what he's doing as the right thing keeping him from falling entirely(or just being God's specialest boy)?

Would they be gray? Not fallen per se, but still a bit on the fence? Caught between two worlds?Accepting that sometimes there are 'shades of gray?' (I think Crowley's would also be gray in such an instance maybe, which reminds me, im obsessed with what his wings might look like rn too.)

Do they even have wings anymore? Probably but I'm considering every damn possibility.

It's been making me wonder what's truly considered "fallen." I have more thoughts on the nature of falling itself but perhaps I'll save it for later.

Tell me your thoughts, I love wings!

Oh hi there good omens fandom, did I mention I made a Bildad costume?

It's not entirely done but it was done enough to wear to a convention! There's still some things I'd like to tweak cause I'm a perfectionist and OBSESSED with his costume. Like I could write an essay on the construction alone but I digress.

It was such a blast seeing the delight on all the good omens fans faces when they spotted me, the collective love for Bildad is truly a highlight of the fandom!

Also ft. @black-mambaaaa and @mercyful-benz as turtleneck Crowley and Heaven Crowley looking like we're about to drop the hottest album of the apocalypse.

Aaaaand Heaven Crowley and I waiting on turtleneck Crowley to finish all the pics with our Aziraphale (we only had one and had to share).

The sweet @quinnznos takes our pics as always.

Ok love u bye!

Career Timeline: 1981 - TRON

Moebius is hired by Disney Studios to begin concept design work for TRON(released in 1982). He would also serve as a backup storyboard artist.

I need everyone to understand about the fremen.

They do not cry. Ever.

To give water to the dead is the most sacred honor that anyone could give but they rarely and never do that because it's ingrained in them to not waste water from birth. A single tear could mean life and death for them. To give water to the living? Unheard of.

Paul crying over killing Jamis in the book was a moment that astonished the fremen around him. Jessica ponders their reactions and knows that this is a holy moment.

Jessica then forcing Chani to cry for Paul(this was not in the book btw but I love it) is the ultimate betrayal of her autonomy. To force her to give what is essentially a piece of her life to him without her consent is sacrilegious and she knows it.

Water of Life indeed.
