Description
A redone Paper Mario/Mario Story spriteset for Gulpit, a strange tongue-based, rock-launching enemy only in Paper Mario 64.

While I was intending to use the original design from PM64 for Fruit Shake and had made/uploaded sprites to this end, even from the start, I felt they weren't quite up to snuff. This was due to how precise and frame-based the original Gulpit was, vs how I'd been constructing the sprites to be more like TTYD onwards. As a result, it looked quite wonky trying to combine the two approaches together. Hence, after putting it off for so long (which may be part of why I kept putting Fruit Shake off), I've made a redesign that's more puppet-friendly.
While most of the redesign had good solutions put into converting Gulpit, the big issue was the cheek over the jaw, and making the jaw "connect" to the belly. For those, I decided to make the cheek super tall, and make a special color-only disguise piece.

The original sprite I made is here: Gulpit (Mario Story Fruit Shake) by DerekminyA on DeviantArt

In addition, I've made three extra colorations that may or may not appear in future fantopics, whether close or far.
