Canon says that Macalaurë supposedly wanders the seashore, endlessly singing melancholic lamentations for his past misdeeds as a “Kinslayer.” But in 1988, "Mick Laurie" is singing a different tune...
Art inspired by my friend SemperViridis's fic Silmarella. [here | Ao3]
Here's the original art [photoshop, no AI] that SV did in October 2021:
Left to right: Sören "Sparky" [guitarist], Anthony "Andy" [bass], Maglor "Mick Laurie" [frontman], and Nicholas "Nolan" [drums].
From there, I made these pics in August 2024 with a combination of AI bases and work in photoshop, as a surprise gift for SemperViridis to say "thank you" for five years of friendship.
