This scene, as shot in Prague, had to be completely remade. First, the film was scratched and beat up, so the damage had to be repaired. Next, since the sequence of events was changed in editing, the three Fremen had to be removed, along with many footprints that no longer had any source or motivation. A new horizon had to be made, and a Harkonnen Thopter added. |

The final comp has some nine layers. The Thopter was made at Area 51, with some touch-up texturing added here. The new horizon was painted at Title House. |
