H.R. Giger, the famous creator of the Xenomorph in the science fiction classic ALIEN, was also part of the all star team that worked on Jodo’s Dune. The enclosed design of the castle fits perfectly with the description of Harko City in the books, which is probably just a happy coincidence. The elongated back of the head is an obvious resemblance to the aforementioned Xenomorph.

Oh, sehr interessant! Das ist sogar noch eine andere Version des Bildes, der Blickwinkel ist ca. 45° nach vorne gedreht. Das Bild aus dem Script ist hingegen eine Seitenansicht aus dem 90° Winkel. Beim Betrachten wird mir mal wieder klar wie virtuos Giger organische und technische Strukturen verschmelzen lässt!
