Character Design: Call for submission
May 27th
Recently we evaluated all our character sketches so far. Take a look at the interesting results here:
Joe facial poll
Pizza Chef poll
Robot Cop poll
Especially the designs from sfepa and LeafThief are very admired by our members. Congratulations to them!
Now that we have a good feeling of how the characters will look like, let’s finish the job! Everyone is invited to take these results and create a final character design and submit it for the challenge. We will vote once again and the winners’ design will get chosen for the animation! As always, she/he will also get announced on this blog and receive proper credits of course.
The deadline is the 6th of June, so please hurry up! See the full details about the submission rules here.
I want to thank the muffin community for the incredible work they’ve done so far and I’m looking forward for your future support!
Character names
We know that our hero’s name is Joe, but what’s his surname? Or the pizza chef’s name? We don’t know it either. Therefore we collected some possible names and started a poll. Read and rate them in these threads/polls:
Vote for your favourite character design!
May 18th
We’ve already got many many great sketches for our character designs of Joe, the Pizza Chef and the Robot Cop. Time to evaluate them and find out which ones you like best!
If you haven’t voted already, please take a minute and vote in the forums:
Joe poll
Pizza Chef poll
Robot Cop poll
For now these poll results are not mandatory. It’s really just an orientation to find out which direction our character design should go. Soon we’ll announce the deadline for character design submissions including detailed requirements and settle down on one design. We’ll keep you informed here!
You can always find a nice overview of the character design state on the muffin website.
Thanks for your support,

Screenplay done
Mar 21st
Hi.
It’s been way too long since we posted some news here. Lot’s of things are going on at the muffin project. Most important:
The screenplay is done
When we say “done”, that means there won’t be big changes anymore, just polishing. You can still suggest improvements.
We took a lot of time to do this, but i think it totally paid of. Thanks to all of you who patiently followed the screenplay brainstorm thread in the forums.
After a lot of words: please read the intro screenplay and the first episode’s screenplay yourself here:
Searching for titles
That brings us to the next thing on the list: We still haven’t decided for a title. Not for the Series nor for the first episode. Some users did post good suggestions and right now we’re voting for the best ones. You can find the polls in the forums:
Series title poll thread
Episode title poll thread
Concept phase starting
Some artists already did some sketches and scribbles for the muffin project. Now that the screenplay is done we’ll announce the concept phase officially to everyone very soon.
Call to subscribe
Guys, just do it:
What the project was missing before was the opportunity to get informed as soon as a new interesting task becomes available. For example if you’re interested in 3D modelling, right now there’s no task for you.
You can now subscribe to this blog (look at the subscription form at the right). If you also register, you can select what categories you’re interested in and get news from those topics only. More about subscriptions here.
Thanks,

And the winner is…
Feb 4th
I happy to announce the winner of the story election. Congratulations to Saintograph for his story idea
Pizza Delivery School
I want to thank everyone involved in the voting, and especially those of you who wrote stories or tried to improve them. You guys rock!
Now that we have a story, lots of open tasks became available for those who want to participate. Take a look at them in the tasks section.
Besides collecting visual references and doing first sketches the most important task for now is to polish the screenplay. You can find the active thread about it in the forum.
stay tuned!
