<p>I want to get this stroke style in After Effects:</p>
<p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/dAI9m.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/dAI9m.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
<p>Is like it's a little little bit deformed, isn't it? Or is the filter? It seems like in some tracks is 2.5px and 2.3 in anothers... Compare with my current stroke:</p>

<p>Mine is more defined and 'perfect'. I need to apply these old cartoon effect in stroke.</p>
<p>Any idea? Thanks</p>

"Roughen edges" effect applied to the stroke layer - play with the settings.

Then "Add Grain" effect as an adjustment layer, as shown below:
