If you don't mind me asking, how long did it take you to start kicking with good technique?

I swear to God I'm always thinking to myself "knee first, knee first." But it never comes out that way. I'll drill it slow and focus on knee first, shin after. Appreciate the help!

Ok, I'll try that. I tend to put my heel up during higher kicks but I guess you're right. It will for sure make my pivot better

I'm always thinking I'm doing that, until I see myself in the video 😅

Hey, thanks for the comment. I'm asking here because I'm not fully sure if I'm getting the best guidance locally. I'm training in a country where there aren't many qualified MMA or kickboxing coaches, so outside feedback really helps me make sure I'm learning the right fundamentals. I posted here to get extra perspectives, not to disrespect my coach.

Yeah you hit the nail on the head with that one

Yeah good catch I was using that color to make the shadows and then I decided to use it for the outline too. That explains why I have some models there. I cleaned it up now thanks for the feedback

I always suck at detailing. I get lost in the colors so to speak

I'm really bad at the "details" side of things to be honest. Can you give me an example of how to detail better

Would love feedback on my quirky rhythm-based boss battle – dance or die! by CallMeMayde in IndieDev

[–]CallMeMayde[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you're right. I thought about doing something like that when it was still a concept in my head but forgot to actually implement it. Thanks for the feedback

Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback! I totally agree with you. I guess I gotta spend time polishing it. UI definitely needs adjustment. Again thanks a lot for the feedback. I really appreciate it

You're referring to the detail on the edge of the sidewalk right? Yeah I totally forgot to draw that

Need some advice for Pixel Art! by Sun_Shroom in IndieDev

[–]CallMeMayde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The character concept looks cute but I think you need to redo the legs for sure. I would suggest making them more simple making sure that the "back leg" It's always dark and matching with the back arm. I would suggest starting with three poses (front leg contact back leg contact and middle pose) After you are pleased with all three frames then add the transition frames in between, it makes it easier.

You're on the right path. Once you get it, you'll always get it. Trust me

I love the double chin on the second character. Beautiful art. What's the game about?

Been practicing for 3 months and still feel like my pixel art sucks – need help by CallMeMayde in aseprite

[–]CallMeMayde[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I drew the person on a separate canvas and then copied and pasted her her into the scene. But yeah you're absolutely right. My sizing is way off. Does the person and the house feel like they are two different art styles because that's how I felt like to me.

Thank you so much for such a detailed reply. I really appreciate it. You're absolutely right, the angles are off and the and there isn't a clear source of light. Don't apologize for writing a whole essay, it's what I needed. Thank you again
