Title: The NEW new TJ

Yup. I'm now a giant talking tea cup. It kind of makes my username make sense now.

Obviously, I think I could fix the shading a little bit, espicially for the tea part. But overall I think this would make for an original, funny character.

There'll be a human form later, but right now I'm just a tea cup.

Comments? Suggestions? Hate Speeches?

Just a note: This tea cup and the human form are the final versions of TJ I'll ever make. All the more recent ones will be used as other characters, and may be remolded a bit.

TEA!

Okay, I posted this for a reason.

For the most part, I like your sprite. The bottom looks good, but the top annoys me. In the sprite above (ripped from Paper Mario), the top rim of the cup is easily seen, so I would make the upper rim of the cup visible.

I chuckled at this sprite, but I think its a great idea. Keep with this!

I took the tea cup Wise posted, and edited it into this. Truth be told, I think the rim of the cup may need to be reduced a little bit.

I'm liking this sprite already; it doesn't take long to make. :D

Dear TJbad,

How do you type/fight/do anything without hands?

Uh, I thought I might just dump the scolding hot tea that sits inside my head on people. That would make people think twice about fighting me.

I'm not sure about those other things though.

Also, I don't know how to sprite a tea cup jumping. Help plz?

I have to give you points for originality. It also happens to be funny.

Nice job.

I update with the many faces of TeaJay

Not done with the emotions yet, but this is just the product of being stuck on jumping sprites.

Seriously, what does a jumping tea cup look like?

craig - March 3, 2008 04:48 AM (GMT)
Try looking at the little tea cup guy from Beauty and the Beast to get an idea.

TeaOfJay - March 3, 2008 06:35 AM (GMT)
You know, the problem is that is that I need a sprite refference for that, and as far as I can tell, Chip has no sprites. D:

Sheet Update:

So yeah, I tried my hand at making a jump sprite. I think I failed miserably at that. So yeah, if someone could help me that'd be totally great and stuff.

EDIT: Scratch that. I somehow made a decent looking jumping sprite. But I'm going to wait until the next sheet update to show it off.

Hazzardous - March 3, 2008 07:20 AM (GMT)
Do you let just ANYONE drink out you TJ? How does that feel actually?

"Yeah, anyone can drink out of me... As long as they can get past the various other things that come out of my head."

Yeah, inside TeaJay's head is a pocket universe. That's why there is always tea in it. It would make sense that he'd have other stuff in there too.

Also, this gives me an excuse to sprite a tea cup using a Giga Drill Breaker.

Hazzardous - March 4, 2008 09:47 AM (GMT)
Anything else than Tea? Never really acquired a taste for tea...

CaptainN00bBasher - March 4, 2008 11:22 PM (GMT)
I have to admit this is very original. If you do this right there's alot of potential.

EDIT: Allthough, I'd have the drill be thinner so it actuall looks like it's coming from your head.

TeaOfJay - March 5, 2008 01:20 AM (GMT)
The thing about the drill is that I'm basing it off of an attack where the drill doesn't look like it could come out of the hand like it does.

Sheet Update

Windclaw made the walking a jumping sprites.

I now have a full range of motion, for a tea cup, and two attacks set up! Whoo!

I'll try to have a "true" Giga Drill Breaker (A.K.A actually doing more than one frame of it), and maybe some more attacks later(Maybe a Tea Tidal Wave?). TJ is a lazy tea cup.

Oh, and the extra drills are there for animating. I'll do something like that for the little drill eventually.

If you have any ideas of stuff that could pop out of the tea cup, I'm all for suggestions.

Windclaw - March 5, 2008 03:13 AM (GMT)
Might I make some obvious sugestions for attacks?

And yes, feel free to brick me on the second one.

TeaOfJay - March 8, 2008 08:16 PM (GMT)
I think I can officially be called crazy now.

I thought it would be funny to put a speedo onto a tea cup.

Remind me never to do something like that ever again.

You don't exactly strike me as being naked...

I think you should have done something more like this, but in-case you didn't I still included the Tea-Cup I made, without eyes. Your Tea Cup should spill water out of the top when it jumps, and the base shouldn't move, just the hollow part. Also, bright green backgrounds hurt the eyes.

PS-That body for the Tea-Cup is custom, but yo can look up a base or something, it's just there for ideas. Those sprites I made are yours, use them for whatever.

If such was the case, he wouldn't be out of place in BoBoBo's world =D

You fail for mentioning Bobobo but not Chairface Chippendale. >:l

Bobo's? Whatabout Muscleman? Sure, Warsman may have killed the original Teacup themed choujin, but we just have to wait patiently till Kinniku Suguru's full sheet is released!

Bobobo just sticks out more than Tick...Chairman only had...what...two apperances in Tick?

Wheras in Bobobo, all the villians are generally some form of object or food, like Fishcakes or Onions...
