ignorance and stochastic terrorism are done by the populace not the ruling class- grow up with this "we are not the same bullshit"

I print figurines, busts, and diorama scenery for my son and I to paint. Sure I've got my share of functional prints but most my print time is spent so I can spend creative time with my son. So very much worth it for me.

Cnotbush streams himself sculpting clay figures and statues daily on twitch

Ace of Clay, Dr Garuda, Art Chong, North of the Border, Sculpture Geek, etc all post sculpting vids on YouTube.

Some use a polymer clay you bake to harden, some use plasticine based clay that never dries. Depends on the artists preference and needs.

When I was in high school - ages ago - one of the substitute teachers of my art class was sanding/polishing their marble bust they were working on. It was neat to see the process but it's really just a lot of wet sanding once past large removal / chipping.

Dune books are great if you're more into the political landscape and how that affects the characters over action.

The 80s movie is great if you like shitty over ambitious directing with enough voice overs to last you a lifetime. Oh and Sting.

The new movies were more aligned with the story of the books not exact but more true to the stroy. Better than the David Lynch variant for sure. These movies and the 90s/2000s? Miniseries are the video adaptations that are not really Bad - imo

Eta: there's a George R. R. Martin quote about what inspired A Song of Ice and Fire - he is talking about Tolkien and the Hobbit/Lord of the Rings series... He mentioned how he was more interested in the politics after the war. Where did the orcs go etc... This is kinda the vein of Dune imo. The main character is Arrakhis IMHO. The stroy is one of politics.
