After a long hiatus of other projects, artists are coming back together to deliver a new Dune zine for Shortrun2015!
FishSpeakers is a Science Fiction Fanzine based around Frank Herbert’s Dune and the classic novels. The title comes from the All-female army from God-Emperor of Dune. The goal is to inspire people into the Dune-Universe with Art, Fiction, Articles and Reviews and let people express their passion for the various forms of media that have come out of Dune.
It will include a new religious tract of the glorious life of the Muad’Dib as well as many other amazing works we will be showcasing in the next few weeks.
We are also re-opening submissions for the next few weeks for anyone who wants to contribute.
The Cut-Off date for submissions this year will be OCTOBER 11TH.
3 WEEKS TO MAKE THE BEST DUNE CONTENT POSSIBLE!
The book will be printed at 5½” x 8½” (Half-Page size), if you have contributions, be sure to check to make sure your work will look good in that format!
It will be in traditional black and white, so adjust styles accordingly!

Riding the Sandworm - interior illustration for the upcoming special edition of Frank Herbert’s Dune by Centipede Press. I always imagined the sandworms as huge magical beasts when I first read the book as a kid and not super-upscaled intestinal worms, like what they looked like in most visual interpretations in the past. That’s why I decided to do my own version of the worm and used the bobbit worm as my main inspiration. Hope you like it! :) #digitalpainting #digitalart #conceptart #illustration #bookart #scifi #dune
Worm Watchers - Interior illustration for the upcoming special edition of the original Dune by Frank Herbert #conceptart #digitalart #digitalpainting #moodconcept #scifi #illustration #dune
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
(Dune story) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ejs_tkHnI9w&ab_channel=Bonpoc4er “Dune” is a science fiction novel written by Frank Herbert in 1965, with several film adaptations. It is a cult saga that introduces us to the desert planet of “Arrakis” where the nomadic tribes of humans called “Fremen” live that survive. to the most extreme conditions of an endless desert. Despite its low environmental value, “Arrakis” stands out for its native fauna, being the only planet where the “Sandworms” or better known as “Shai-Hulud” by the Fremen nomads live; These worms grow up to 400 meters in length, making them the deadliest predators on your world. (Ironically her only weakness is water) But the commercial value of the “Sandworm” is not its meat or its size, on the contrary, it is the product that it excretes and is harvested with caution among the dunes as an elixir that sprouts with the name of “Melange” or “Spice” a substance psychotropic that makes its user addicted, lengthens their life expectancy, expands their psychic abilities to see time and space facilitating interstellar travel but degenerates with horrible long-term mutations. The “Spice” is so vital for the inhabitants of the Empire of the million worlds that the Noble houses masterfully conspire for the control of the planet “ArraKis” because whoever controls the flow of “Spice” controls the destiny not only of the Empire, but of all humanity. Great Wars raged on “Arrakis” until the awakening of “Paul Atreides” the new Emperor of the worlds and prophesied messiah of Arrakis.
