As achingly beautiful as ever, Richard Swarbrick (aka @RikkiLeaks) has unveiled his latest commission: a stunning animated tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo on the eve of the Ballon d’Or gala.
Encompassing over 1,100 hand-drawn sketchbook pages, Swarbrick’s paean to Ronaldo also takes him on a pilgrimage from Old Trafford to the Bernabeu.
In the immortal words of Richard Keys: He’s smashed it…
How wonderful was that? “Very wonderful” is the answer.
