VS

Oscar Johansson
Most famous for his Castle Series and consequently one of the nominees who needs no introduction, Oscar Johansson brought realism and great storywriting to stick animation from the early beginning of his career. A true pioneer, he used his arts skills to breathe life into the simplest characters there are, sticks, and has successfully introduced voice actors into his animations since 2001 with his Wanted Series. He created animations, but most importantly, he created chracters. His style was heavily immitated and very inspiring.

Lifetime Achievement?
Oscar deserves it.
But Geo too is so cool!

I like Geo's style, but the castle series are still my favorite stick animations to date

Oscar. Castles. Nuff said
