well, i think it's hard to tell that this is a muffin, perse. it could be a cupcake, in which case the joke doesn't make much sense. i'm no designer, so i don't know how, but i think you should make it more muffiny. somehow....

Nice first try. It's a cute idea, but work on the drawing a little bit, and maybe color it in.

reminds me way too much of Chick-Filet "eat more chicken" cow, so wouldn't really sport this

I have an unhealthy addiction to cake. This is awesome.

the execution is terrible aswell.

sorry.

give it blueberries and make better arms. i don't know what kind, but the straight lines are no good.



also, smaller.

square random on Aug 20 '05
the straight arms = ms paint look >_>; make it wearing a pirate hat and a hook on the left hand and a gold watch on his right and have a purple jacket....or just change the arms <_<;

I'm not too fond of the color choices for the shirt, but other than that it's pretty cute. I like the idea behind this. I think the arms add a good element to it, but the eyes look too sketchy compared to the smoother lines of the rest of the drawing.

muffins are wonderful. But this one has a scar (the straight diagonal line below one eye. oh wait, was that supposed to be a mouth?) and I can see the pixels. Those eyes are big enough to be creepy, not in a good way. OOOH! draw blueberries in place of eyes! with the flower-like part of the berry for pupils! I would prefer the image smaller on the shirt. you got an ok start. more muffin shirts!

do you think i should make him more cutesy??

um.....i don't really know what it is about the muffin, but he just looks weird. his eyes don't really match the rest of his body, and his body looks a little clippy.

that's good. my only suggestions are to make the mouth appear more like a mouth, and smooth out the eyes OR if you want (although I wouldn't do it) you could rough up the rest of it. good job though!

alright thanks...ive already began my new idea. im going to use the same muffin outline, and make it a cupcake. the eyes are rounder and fuller, and not sketchy. ive added color and a cherry to make it look like a cupcake for sure. then there will be a sign sticking out of it that says "eat more pie". i used everyones ideas because i thought they were great and ill have it up here soon!! i hope youll like it...anyway, in the meantime feel free to leave more ideas...

delicious, its really cute and although its not the greatest quality vector, i'd still wear it. i hope its printed so i can shotty buying it!

The mouth was so far to the left I didn't even see it until I read the comments. Just the two big buggy eyes...
cookie2u
cookie2u on Aug 21 '05
I didn't notice the mouth either until I read the comments. The eyes are kind of creepy looking, well maybe not creepy but kind of wierd. I definitely did not realize that it was supposed to be a muffin until I read your explanation.

cows and chickens did good, but muffins and cake...i don't think it hit the message as well.

umm the muffin's eyes and mout hand arms and stuff look like it was just drawn in from a clipart, considering the quality differencne. o__o

I think it's terrible, I'm sorry, but this looks like no thought went into the illustration. Furthermore, A. Muffins are cakes and B. Muffins are overplayed, do something new. I'm tired of everyone going for the "cute" look for their submissions.



Sorry, I really wish I could say better of this, but I can't.

apophysis on Aug 21 '05
i agree with skipper...also, if you pulled the muffin outline from clipart, i wouldn't even bother using it for your second attempt. good luck in the future, but id ditch the concept.

CUTE. i'd buy it.
woosta2
woosta2 on Aug 22 '05
funnier if it looked more like cake, or if it said "eat more cup cakes," because really, how many cutsey ways can you imply 'eat me?' Otherwise, it does seem like an idea rip.

That sign and the post it's on do not match up.
