Stadler vs. Dodrill
 
Inspired by the Allen vs. Brandon thread...
Whose artwork style do you like more? The thick-lined, dirty and funky Nick's style, or the clean, Disney-similar and cute Noogy's style?

In my opinion, I think Nick is better because his style is more original and detailed, plus the way he draws eyes is awesome.

LittleFreak Oct 31, 2005 04:22 AM

I like both. But I like Nick's stuff a little bit more.

Enigma Oct 31, 2005 04:30 AM

I'd have to vote Dean Dodrill here. I've always been very fond of that sort of Disney-like cartooney style. I like Nick Stadlers stuff too, but just not as much.

White Rabbit Oct 31, 2005 04:59 AM

I choose Nick over Dean, but I still like the latter's stuff. Dean's style don't produce anything nearly as crazy/freaky/outlandish as some of Nick's drawings, which gives the JJ games their special feel.

Now let's gang up on Enigma. :(

*gangs up on WR* >O

The first to touch Enig will be eaten.

Hmmm.
...
Hm.

I like cuteness. But originality and style are awesome.
It's even, I guess.

Nick was the one that gave jazz a face, i think ?

And let's not forget the comic.

Hmm.. Hard choice.

Well, in my opinion, I find Nick's style original, detailed and it does give the game it's own feeling. Plus, Nick's art in JJ1/JJ2 is what inspired me to start drawing. But then again, Dean's stuff is also cool, and I've always been fascinated by his animation... So it's a bit of a hard choice. I'm leaning towards Nick Stadler's stuff more, so I'll vote for that.

I would be inclined to contribute that to CliffyB.

Nick by a landslide. He has an incredible mastery of poses, every single sprite frame is meticulously shaded, and he even drew countless sprites that didn't even get used in the game because he was so good they were no trouble to him. He's not limited to any particular shading style or sprite size and can convert sprites to different forms. Noogy had a couple good tilesets, but he just stole one of Nick's for a third of TSF, and the Lori sprites are pretty pathetic in that he drew her big, resized her, and made almost no effort to fix up the sprites at all. His strength is the bigger, cartoony drawings, but Nick beat him in that back in 1994.

I tossed a coin. Nick won.

Radium Oct 31, 2005 02:55 PM

I'm going with Nick. Noogy was awesome and all, but Nick was just better with game stuff.

Iam Canadian Oct 31, 2005 08:29 PM

I'm going with Nick as well. Noogy is a great artist, don't get me wrong, but Nick is the master of the Jazz style.

I think we have a clear winner here...
