Part of my work on Dune: Awakening was doing the vfx for the vehicles, including the destruction of them.
Before me arriving to the team, Leon Roth made the initial setup and VFX of the vehicles destruction.

Thanks to the explosion simulations and leadership of our Lead VFX Artist Ivan Zakharov and the direction of Associate Art Director Mario Garibay they got to look this cool.
