They look powerful but quite inhuman. Like someone taken straight from Biomega or Blame!
I love this transhumanist take on Dune.

Intriguing redesign. They all are snowflakes despite being part of the same order. I enjoy how the nun aspects remain.

Realy awesome but be careful that you donΒ΄t overuse effects.

I think that each one of these should be a different individual.

The third from the left in the top row is very evocative. But there are so many excellent designs. Really cool! And you made the Bene Gesserits look deeply badass which befits them from the novels. Maybe you could have more than one of these. As in, one for just an initiate or a normal sister, then another for a Reverend Mother?

My two personal favorites (going from left to right), the third one on the top row and the first two on the bottom row. However they all look very awesome and I could even see them all as being a Bene Gesserit in some form or another. Hell they could even work as the priestesses or witches of another Sci-Fi or Fantasy story.

Some incredible designs here, the bottom left, with the trapped being inside a mechanical womb is particularly chilling.
Love your work, I have fav-bombed a lot of it.

Is that what it is? A mechanical womb that has a person trapped inside it?

Pretty much, the idea was that they don't use their bodies, they are just an attophied body in a womb tank with the head poking out, and robotic limbs doing the moving.

Ah the Bene Gessrit SisterhoodΒ
To quote Paul's Wife and Empress, Though not lover. That place was reserved for his true wife Chani Β
The Reverend Mother must combine the seductive wiles of aΒ courtesanΒ with the untouchable majesty of a virgin goddess, holding these attributes in tension so long as the powers of her youth endure. For when youth and beauty have gone, she will find that the place-between, once occupied by tension, has become a wellspring of cunning and resourcefulness.
βfromΒ Muad'Dib, Family CommentariesΒ by the Princess Irulan
I absolutely love how all theses are seductive, sensual and yet so alien. How would we even conceive the ideal beauty of a Reverend Mother? Dune is so massively outside our own society in someways.Β
I love it.Β

Hey thanks for the feedback, it's nice to hear from a reader. I haven't read the series myself, yeah shame, but I found the sisterhood to be extremely inspiring. So many elements to play with.

I personally like how much personality each of them has.

these are great.
That holographic head is especially well designed, you're clearly avoiding the low hanging fruit and making the idea your own.

your work is impressive. all of your characters are cleverly made and have their own conceptual identities that make me think you've done them thoughtfully, with inspiration and not on a whim .Β i trully thank you for making something memorable that overcome what i know about Sci-fi. I don't know about the original work : Dune, but to me Your work is quality

Hey, thank you for you kind words! I did write a one-line description of each before painting them which helped a lot. The source material is very inspiring as well!

All of them are eerie in their own way. I like the one in the top row, third from the left because of its resemblance to a chess queen. They all look amazing, though--it was tough to pick just one!
