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 | Description | Created |
|---|---|---|
 | Super NES was drawn in Mario Paint. The colors were very odd. Pom Pom has a white head occasionally and a green body, 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 |
 | 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 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. According to the DVD commentary for the Yello Dello storyboards, this is because Matt drew the storyboards very quickly and messily. However, Mike ended up liking those versions of the characters better, and so they were kept that way in the final cartoon. | 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 |
 | An exaggerated cartoony Homestar and Doreauxgard, as seen in the title card for "The Homestar Runner and Doreauxgard Show" from an Easter egg in lackey. A similar version is later seen in The Actions You Can Do. | 2004 |
 | 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. According to Strong Bad, this Strong Bad design is named "Senor Muybueno", and The Cheat's name is "The Cheato Bandito". | 2004 (Strong Bad), 2006 (The Cheat) |
  | In old comics, the characters in the The Castlefunnies strips were depicted with small eyes and large noses, among other deformed and odd features. | 2004 |
 | On the cover of the FAQ, the characters look like they were colored in crayon, but at the same time exhibit shading. Note that this picture was not created by The Brothers Chaps, but by a fan. | 2005 |
 | 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 Strong Bad is a Bad Guy, the characters are, again, drawn in Mario Paint. Their updated look is used, but they appear different. | 2005 |
 | In Exaggerations, the characters are drawn in numerous strange designs. | 2005 |
 | A hand-drawn version of Space Captainface, used in the email space program's slideshow. There were other similar drawings also used. | 2005 |

 | Strong Bad as painted by a Deutsch 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 The King of Town's Very Own Quite Popular Cartoon Show!!. | 2007 |
 | Strong Bad and Coach Z are drawn in the Dullard style for the storyboards in Sbemail 169 Deleted Scene. | 2007 |
 | Strong Mad, Coach Z, Bubs, and Pom Pom are drawn with blonde hair and without shading or outlines in hygiene. | 2007 |
 | In Jibblies 2, when Homestar and The Goblin enter the Jibblies Painting, their style changes so the dominant hues are cyan, magenta, yellow and black, and have thicker outlines. | 2007 |
 | In Most in the Graveyard, the Carnivorous Undead Sheep and Homsar are drawn with thick, black outlines, rather than the normal outlines. | 2008 |
 | During the SBASAF educational film, What's your Captainface?, shown during Career Day, Strong Bad and The Cheat (as Space Captainface and Strap Coopmore) are drawn in an extremely cartoony style. Additionally, Strong Bad has visible eyeballs, teeth and cleft chin. | 2009 |
