Alia Bones (prelim)

“Alia crouched, resting elbows on knees, chin on fists, stared at the body on the dune—a few bones and some tattered flesh that once had been, a young woman.”

Preliminary drawing for Dune: Messiah showing Alia Atreides inspecting suspicious human remains deep in the desert. Note: this drawing has light marking along the exterior border (not on actual drawing) where tape has pulled away a bit of paper.
