Stylized Character Designs are intentional variations to the normal character models. The Brothers Chaps will play with line weights, colors and proportions to achieve a unique look for specific cartoons. These are not part of the gradual evolution of the characters, but rather a fresh experimental design.

Image Info Created
Super NES was drawn in Mario Paint. The colors were very odd. Pom Pom has a white head occasionally, Strong Sad is orange and blue, and Strong Mad is wider than ever. What's more, Strong Bad is given a green tongue and teeth in one scene. 1996
A weird, distorted Strong Bad with no shading and one arm. Appeared in Dancin' Bubs. 2000
In The Reddest Radish, the characters were paper cut-outs that looked like they were colored in with crayons. 2000
In In Search Of The Yello Dello, the characters were drawn with bright colors and no shading. The proportions were also very inconsistent, especially with Homestar Runner and Coach Z. 2000
The King of Town DVD had its own unique drawing style, which was slightly more colorful and cartoonish. While the King of Town and the Poopsmith's designs in this toon can be counted as part of their evolution, Homestar looked very different and Pom Pom had some proportional issues. 2000
A weird, distorted Poopsmith who looks bigger than normal. His big eye is white instead of black, and his small eye is black instead of white. He has an extra hair on his head. He has a small amount of whatsit on his gloves. The wood on his shovel is brown instead of yellow. Appeared in A Jorb Well Done. A likely explanation for this is that TBC altered his head to resemble a Pom head, due to all other characters in the slideshow having Pom heads. 2001
A Strong Badian pilgrim from colonization. 2003
Strong Bad and The Cheat drawn in a cartoony style. Notice that again, Strong Bad has a green tongue. This version of Strong Bad first appeared in lackey, while this version of The Cheat appeared in pop-up. 2004 (Strong Bad), 2006 (The Cheat)
In old comics, the characters in The Castlefunnies strip were depicted with small eyes and large noses, among other deformed and odd features. 2004
In the Stinkoman 20X6 cutscenes, the characters are pixelated, and sometimes badly detailed, without all normal shading or reflection. 2005
In the Stinkomanual, the characters look very cartoony and sometimes inaccurate. 2005
In the FAQ, the cover. 2005
In Strong Bad is a Bad Guy, the characters are, again, drawn in Mario Paint. Their updated look is used, but they appear different. 2005
A hand-drawn version of Space Captainface, used in the email space program's slideshow. There were other similar drawings also used. 2005
A hand-drawn version of Harold "Strap" Coopmore, used in the email space program's slideshow. 2005
Strong Bad as painted by a Deutch master in portrait. 2005
Hedcut portrait of Strong Bad in the rich-guy newspaper as shown in portrait. 2005
A velvet painting of Strong Bad from portrait. 2005
Strong Bad and Homestar in a comic style, from lady fan. 2006
Coach Z, Strong Bad, and Homestar in sketched storyboard style, from Sbemail 150?!? 2006
The King of Town and servants are drawn in a rounded free-flowing style in KOT's VOQPCS!. 2007
Strong Mad, Coach Z, Bubs, and Pom Pom are drawn without shading or outlines in hygiene. 2007
