Just wanted to ask for a general opinion of the public:

I've noticed Wilt going what I think is "off-model" for the episodes "Sight for Sore Eyes" and "Eddie Monster", where he develops a "visible" eyebrow. I've only got a cap from Sore Eyes here:

And I would take a cap from Eddie Monster as well, but I'm lazy.

Basically, I'm bringing this up because in most of the episodes I've watched, when Wilt gets angry (which is rare), his eye normally retains its round shape, with the lid depicting his level of anger:

And I know this is a minor issue, but yeah, does the first "eyebrow" picture sit well with you guys when you see it? It could possibly mean that Wilt is really, really mad when his "eyebrow" thing comes out, but it kind of throws me off a bit every time I see it, haha.

It could also possibly be just a mistake on part of the storyboard artist not following the model packs (sometimes the character packs have specific rules on what a character should or should not look like in certain expressions and stuff) and it getting through to finalization without being noticed. Considering there's been tons of continuity errors in Foster's (Neighbour Pains: Mac's backpack appears after it's clearly been left inside the house then redisappears later, Goo's hair braids continually switching sides, Coco's "body" showing through her beak, Badvertisement: Man's hand in background covering Bloo who is in the foreground, etc. ) I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case.

Still, it adds a different level of expression for Wilt, no? Even though it makes him really mean-looking and stuff. :S
