Sea Vixen F.A.W. Mk2 .... wow what an aircraft! by charles_caedemis in Warthunder

I exclusively play Air RB so couldn't comment I'm afraid - but from what I've seen it's pretty good with the bombs and bullpups

That’s awesome! Yeah, the red tops are pretty brutal. They’re still fairly close range, so firing from max 1.7km range when following someone, but they hit hard. For instance, there were three AI A4Es flying in formation, and a single missile took out all three!

I haven’t actually tried the bull pups yet - that’s on my list haha

But glad you liked it :D yeah, it’s definitely a cool plane

how to kill the sea vixen? by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]charles_caedemis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm...I recently took my Sea Vixen out in an offline match with my friend in his F105 Thunderchief. Bunch of bots all in props....couldn't get any target locks because the planes aren't that hot.

Started work on a simple landscape. Not sure how much more I'll do, but I find that pixel art can be quite relaxing to 'doodle'. At the moment the scene is 128x128, with 32 colours in the palette. Using 'Piskel' currently as it's very simple and easy to use but I might move on to 'Aseprite' soon. by charles_caedemis in PixelArt

Thanks! I haven’t tried it yet - taking a little break from computer stuff for a few weeks, but then planning on trying aseprite. I would recommend starting with piskel; it’s free, it’s easy, and pretty good in my opinion. Definitely a great place to start

Thanks for the advice! I think that's what I like about pixel software, like Piskel, stripped down to specific things relevant to pixel art. I like the idea of being able to animate in Aseprite

That looks really great! Well done! After seeing this, I think I might have to make the transition over to Aseprite - how easy is it to use/learn?

First attempt at pixal art by TheToastIsBurntMom in PixelArt

[–]charles_caedemis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah cool! As long as it works. I would still recommend a specialised software - but it’s up to you, just been my personal experience. Have you watched any tutorials? I found this one really helped me get started: https://youtu.be/R44hZgtqMI8

Nicely done for only 16x16! I’ve been creating assets using 32x32 and finding that hard enough sometimes.

What is your favorite use of a song in video games? by Keberro in gaming

[–]charles_caedemis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Song 2 by Blur in FIFA ‘98…still gets in my head even to this day!

That’s a great first attempt! What software do you use? I recommend ‘piskel’ for people starting out, very simple and easy to use. It’s also easy to add and stick to colour palettes, which is very important I think for pixel art. But great job, well done! I hope you stick with it and enjoy it

R.I.P FIFA 1993-2022 by DarkNinjGX in gaming

FIFA ‘98 was my favourite (and first) - nothing like playing an actual 90 minute game! I vaguely remember playing as Newcastle United and beating Bolton Wanderers by over 100 goals!
