How do i put a custom block with states m as a tab icon i tried this , but no luck

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
	@Override
    public ItemStack getTabIconItem()
    {
    	ItemStack is = new ItemStack(YobBlockInit.TUDOR_BLOCK, 1 , 1);

        return is;
    }

 

You need to override the getSubBlocks() method. 

If you mean in the TUDOR_BLOCK, it is, other wise not sure which class you refer to

This is what i came up with

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
	@Override
    public ItemStack getTabIconItem()
    {
        return new ItemStack(Item.getItemFromBlock(YobBlockInit.TUDOR_BLOCK), 1 , 6);
    }

works perfect.  thanks for your help
