The Inspiration for Spongebob's Teeth

[BabySmitty]

Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of Spongebob Squarepants, based Spongebob's character design on how he himself looked as a child.

This is cool, but this goes in Spongebob, not Weenie Hut Juniors.

Well still, this can go in the SB forum to. But wow, didn't even realize Steven had blue eyes to!

When I showed my friend that picture, he said "woah, that's exactly how I'd picture Spongebob's creator would look! Spongebob is definitely his son."

Not sure what he meant by that but okay.

It means that they look a lot alike but he's most likely joking about the "SpongeBob is definitely his son" part :P

It may sounds stupid, but I actually used to picture Stephen Hillenburg looking something like Zac Efron during his early acting years but older!
