Astley’s remorse

Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
– Never Gonna Give You Up (for once you know what you get when clicking that link)

Well. This sure was an experimental strip to say the least 😀 I fear that no one will understand it; I really hope at least somebody will though. Even if you know all about Rick Astley, it might be somewhat unclear what’s going on here. But regardless what people think – I really wanted to make this, so I did. And it was funny to make too; I think that shows through in the artwork. I don’t think I have ever done such a versatile strip, art wise.

I especially like that flashback with a young Isaac and Astley (even though I’m not too happy how Rick looks in the last panel), and the color of the entire strip.

And as a bonus, here’s the primary sketch/drawing I made for young astley, which later became the sketch for the strip. He looks more like himself when he’s not mad ^^
