I honestly don't feel that the cheeks have anything to do with Spongebob looking creepy. I think it's just that dead soulless look in his eyes.Old Man Leeroy Jenkins said:I prefer them drawn inward. The outward cheeks make SpongeBob look too creepy in newer episodes.

But this is weird, looks like Adventure Time art Style.DadMom AngryPants said:
But isn't that picture from Boating Buddies too?DadMom AngryPants said:
Yeah, that's a bit of a pet peeve of mine... in the same way that a lot of the new artists like to draw Spongebob with a droopy nose for no reason.DadMom AngryPants said:
Again, I think it also has a lot to do with whether or not the REST of him is drawn in that really ugly stiff dead way.100-Percent-Spongy said:Sometimes, SpongeBob's cheeks are well done and cute, but other times they can be tremendously hideous.
So ugly!

IMO his pre-show design was the cutest, most awkward thing everSpongeCob said:First:

Anyway, I think his puffy cheeks are adorable, and they should be kept. Puffy cheeked SpongeBob is my hug buddy.
Okay, admittedly that looks horrendous.DadMom AngryPants said:
Seeing that design makes me just wanna squish his cheeks! :haylp:BabySmitty said:IMO his pre-show design was the cutest, most awkward thing ever

Even with the inward cheeks, the first image would still look creepy.Old Man Leeroy Jenkins said:I prefer them drawn inward. The outward cheeks make SpongeBob look too creepy in newer episodes.

I'm almost entirely sure that Spongebob was designed to be as cute and huggable-looking as possible.100-Percent-Spongy said:Seeing that design makes me just wanna squish his cheeks! :haylp:
That's an okay rule.Supmandude said:I like both, but as a general rule they should probably only be puffy and fluffy if he's smiling.
Of course he has cheeks!Award said:I forgot he even HAS cheeks to be honest.
