Description My entry for ~rebootclub 's Obscure Crossover Contest, some months ago. I won. ^___________^

I actually had a more finished version, but I can't seem to find the exported version or the photoshop file, so I can't try to recolor it. I suppose that's an excuse to do it better, but I don't have the time right now.

Bob's stillsuit was such a pain in the arse to draw, as was Megabyte (I almost NEVER draw 'im), but at least Megs came out looking nice and shiny. I hate Hex's headdress. At least I didn't shave her head.

[NERD] For those who don't know, Dune is the first in a series of strange sci-novels by Frank Herbert, and also a David Lynch film. Bob is Paul Maud'Dib Atreides (the Kwisatz Haderach), Hex is Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam (a powerful witch), and Megabyte is the Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV (Emperor of the Known Universe). I could have used different ReBoot characters, but the x-over is freaky no matter who I choose, since the Reverend Mother is Paul's grandmother (!!) and the Emperor a distant cousin (I think). If I kept Bob, Hex, and Megs as they are, Dot would be Chani, Turbo would be... Gurney? Matrix - Duncan (NYARG, clones! XD), Phong - Thurfir, Daemon - Irulan, Daecon - Stilgar (just because), and Ray - Feyd (he'd be Bob's cousin, too), because I am a horrible person. [/NERD]

Photoshop and tablet.

Fun Fact, Megabyte's controlled sector of Mainframe is literally called Giedi Prime.

Does noone else see the irony in combining a sci-fi world set in a computer with a sci-fi world that has consciously rejected computers?

Where did you get the idea that RM Mohiam is Paul's grandmother?

Hmm. Given that the slum sector under Megabyte's rule is 'Ghetty Prime'(Giedi Prime), I'd have thought you'd go with him being the cruel and intelligent Baron Vladimir Harkonnen.
