Today was a good post day... A lovely surprise - my copy of the Dune 4-6 deluxe box set arrived from Penguin It feels *amazing* to get to hold these things in person. This is the fulfillment of a life-long dream after all…

Photo of a man with short brown hair and a short beard, smiling slightly at the camera, holding two hardcover box sets of Frank Herbert's Dune saga side by side, showing the spines of all six books: Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune. Framed vintage film posters are visible on the wall behind him.

Interior illustration spread from a Dune book, showing a red-suited female humanoid figure with a bald head reclining on an ornate dark throne against a yellow-green background, with a smaller shadowy cat- or demon-like figure crouched on the facing page.

Close-up of three hardcover book spines standing upright, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune by Frank Herbert, each in a different color treatment (brown, blue, teal), set against their green and gold illustrated slipcase featuring a moonlit desert landscape

Photo of Frank Herbert's Dune Saga Books 4-6 box set standing upright next to its three matching hardcover book covers laid out on a desk: God Emperor of Dune (brown, cloaked figure), Heretics of Dune (blue, figure silhouetted against a shattered moon), and Chapterhouse: Dune (teal, seated figure in a circular window). A computer monitor and desk items are visible in the background.

The Preacher from Children of Dune

A wide angle image of two cloaked figures standing in the foreground, in the background is a vast temple. A row of palm trees going towards the temple give a sense of huge scale. One figure is hooded, and resting an arm on the shoulder of the other, smaller figure who sports a kind of turban and glowing blue eyes. The colours - peach, mandarin, pink - along with the dust and hazy atmosphere show the extreme heat of the city of Arrakis. A burning sun sets behind the temple.

Three people ride on the back of a giant sandworm, across the dunes towards an otherworldly rocky outcrop and the blazing sunset behind it.

My cover art for books 4-6 of the Dune saga have been revealed :) Interior pieces (9 in total) will be shared soon (I hope!) For a closer look, head to mattgriffin.art/dune-46-delu...

An image of a box set of book 4-6 in Frank Herbert's Dune saga. The image shows the outer box art, a predominantly green scene of Odrade walking with Duncan in the Chapterhouse orchards, and the 3 book spines.

A wide angle image, predominantly golden yellow and browns, featuring Leto II - the half-sandworm, half-man God Emperor of Dune

A wide angle image of trippy electric blues, purples and reds featuring the character Sheeana from 'Heretics of Dune' standing before a sandworm's mouth, holding one hand up as if controlling it.

A wide angle image of greens and blues featuring the character Odrade - Reverend Mother of the Bene Gesserit - seated at her desk in Chapterhouse. Around her, sand blows on the floor and steps - a nod to the desertification of the planet Chapterhouse and it's wider meaning in the arc of the story.

Please fucking support your creative friends. A lot of bad things are happening, but the news cycle blots out the goddamn sun and 24/7 doomscrolling is objectively bad for your mental health. Help the people who help you feel and stay human.

✨I wrote a MEGA blog for Aardman all about how we made 'Wallace & Gromit: Shot on iPhone', a commission from Apple last year that I had the great pride in directing.

And @torbooks.bsky.social is really publishing the remainder of the Great Schools of Dune Trilogy, Mentats of Dune (1/26) and Navigators of Dune (3/26), with atmospheric new @mattgriffin.art cover artwork in trade paperback format. [2/2]

Cover to Mentats of Dune depicting a bald man with a black cape and a glowing orb in his hands standing among the reeds. In the background we see futuristic skyscrapers in a pagoda-like architectural style, and a featureless moon, a planet, or the sun hanging in the sky. Everything is colored in shades of orange and purple.

Cover to Navigators of Dune depicting a flowing amphibian-like Navigator in the center with a triangular prism-shaped Guild Heighliner beneath. Around the Navigator are concentric waves of light, lightrays, light dots, and some kind of vulva-shaped construct.
