You should add the license into metadata for the asset packs:

"Edit asset pack->Metadata->Release Info->License for assets" It will increase the size of audience that will be able to find your art

Done. Thanks!

If you think that it was useful for you, you can leave a comment here to support my proposal about making metadata more visible for those who are interested in it https://itch.io/t/2919128/metadata-encouragement#post-7952450

I have one question about license. Why it is CC-BY-ND? WHat is the sense? ND means that user can't create derivatives but it is a base of character that assumes modifications to it... Or you expect that someone will use it as is? But you said in description you can recolor that itself a derivative...

It makes perfect sense, for me. If someone is really interested in the asset, I can, by my rights, re-license it to their needs. As it is now, (especially as a free download), I reserve all rights, as described by the license.

Thank you, though, for asking.

Funny thing is: applying the meta data actually hurt this asset's reach/visibility.

I've decided that the licensing will stand to protect my work from straight up just being copied and resold, as is. Even though, I encourage anyone who honestly wants to use this as a starting point for their own projects to do so - modify away! I hope you understand.
