^^ Kiitoksia! On vähän tommonen omintakeinen tyyli värittää juu, juontaa juurensa ajoille jolloin räpiköin umpi osaamattomana ja kokeilin kaikenlaista. Tykästyin sitten tuohon tapaan. Heh hee! Ei sillä että kovin hienosti/taidokkaasti osaisin vieläkään, mutta on vähän laajentunut ajan kanssa onneksi. :}

Aww thank you so much for those nice words. Really warms my heart. And yeah, in Yuki's design I concentrated on making her face her trademark, rather than bringing buttloads of glimmer and fine things to her outfit for example. Her design is kept very simple and has much traditional japanese influences. ^^ Well... after all, her story being (originally) set in older times japan that's only natural.

you're quite welcome- and you succeeded very well with that goal; Yuki is a very simplistically beautiful character and I'm glad you've shared her with us. c:

I'm a particular fan of the pregnant picture, its fairly intimate and shows off most of her curves, and of course her wonderfully pregnant belly.

Berrycake In reply to Sardoza [2010-01-26 21:45:55 +0000 UTC]

Her curves aren't really that hmm... generous normally, I added in a little extra because of, well, the fact that she is pregnant (in the picture). She isn't so in the storyline. But she is my muse, and therefore as I felt like drawing a pregnant woman, it was Yuki.

Since already talking about her curves, I might as well add the little fun fact that when she wears kimono (which is every day, it being her uniform style of choice) she BINDS her chest. Every morning she attends work. Ouch! With kimono it is ideal to have a flat, straight all-over figure. (Sure when she's home and on her free time, she goes around without the binding. :3)

there's a fun fact I didn't know, thank you for the information. c:

Well gladly her bust isn't class Rangiku, nor even close to that. So there really isn't too much stuff to squeeze in anyway. :3

(I'm now wondering how on earth did I manage to get myself in a situation, where I actually am speaking about Shurayukis breasts. *laughs* Well, there's a first time to everything I guess~)

Sardoza In reply to Berrycake [2010-01-26 22:08:32 +0000 UTC]

Oh, thankgawd. Rangiku's breasts scare me. I've had nightmares where I drowned and DIED in them. Not fun. *shudders* I'm a man, I have these dreams. I blame testosterone.

(and, I'm not sure. Maybe because you thought it would get me more interested? xD Anyway, beyond this, where can I find Yuki's story?)

Berrycake In reply to Sardoza [2010-01-26 22:23:57 +0000 UTC]

Awww unfortunately I'd have to say her story isn't available anywhere in the internet (I never thought anyone would be even interested~). On top of that, I write the story in finnish, which is my native language. :c I write the story for my own pleasure mostly, as a novel project on the side of everything else. ^^

But what I've been meaning to do for the longest time is a information sheet about Yuki, her zanpakuto and some basic stuff on her background. That I could upload here in DA as well. At the moment I have some of her info scattered around the deviation descriptions, comments to people if somebody asked, and also here . Click the link for some stuff about her. ^^ It's a oc interview meme.

Sardoza In reply to Berrycake [2010-01-26 22:27:59 +0000 UTC]

*nods* Well, its good that you're writting the story regardless, I suppose. *nodnod* And unfortunate that I can't read Finnish- truth be told, the only language I'm interested in learning beyond English is Italian, which my school doesn't offer :<

And thank you, I'll be sure to read through the meme, see what I can learn about yuki ^^

Oh, and, off topic: in regards to Gotei, info and drawing are expected within a fortnight of acceptance. Sorry if you've already read that, but, I just want to make sure that you got the information. c:

Berrycake In reply to Sardoza [2010-01-26 22:36:21 +0000 UTC]

Is a full body picture plus a literature piece on character information considered as enough? :3 Or do I have to build an actual sheet from scratch? That I can do also, if that's the case.

Yeah I've got the info, now it's only a good reason for me to actually do the info sheet about Yuki. ^^ I'm glad I have a couple of weeks to do that though... I'm a bit busy. :3

Sardoza In reply to Berrycake [2010-01-26 22:44:56 +0000 UTC]

the full body image is fine, but, considering none of us can red finnish, you'll have to put together an info sheet for her. xD

And, of course, submit it whenever you're ready; and should you ever feel like it, feel free to join us in the chatroom, which you can find here: [link]

I promise, we don't bite often, and when we do, its with love. Bad joke, no? I should get like, an award for that level of fail.

But yes, you do wonderful art, and Its good to have you aboard. I'mma go watch you now >w<

Berrycake In reply to Sardoza [2010-01-26 23:03:02 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah, sure I will make the DA sheet in english. ^^ No joy from it otherwise~ I could submit a picture right now in fact, if that's allright? I'll add the info sheet later. *ponders* I think I'll get it done by next monday, if I take it under work right after I finish the "eye of the storm" painting that is in progress at the moment.

And yeah, I'll hop in to the chatroom once I get my act together and stop being too scared of new people. x) I tend to feel a bit shy at first.

Maybe this will cover the fail for you: . x) I'm glad somebody made that one into a plz here, that pic is one of the absolute classics around the net.

Let's hope you'll get to learn finnish someday! It must be quite an exotic thing back there in the U.S~ :3 And despite it might be a bit difficult, you needn't worry. Let's say if you came to Finland and spoke the language even a little poorly, the finns appreciate even the smallest of effort very much. ^^

Sardoza In reply to Berrycake [2010-01-26 23:24:59 +0000 UTC]

Yes, english would be best, thank you~ |D And yes, I'm sure that you can submit the picture now if you like. c: After all, my guy was the reverse of yours; for a year just an info sheet and is just now getting drawn; and I plan on doing a full-out submited sheet once his bankai is revealed.

And, you needn't worry about too much of the new people, I can help you along. :3 Considering I know most of them quite well despite the distances between us. xD

And yes, but, I don't know where to learn finnish at. Maybe I'll get one of those rossetta stone programs when I finish School.

Berrycake In reply to Sardoza [2010-01-26 23:52:19 +0000 UTC]

And one more Yuki thing: no need being scared of Mary-Sueism, she scored 18 in the universal Mary-Sue litmus test, which keeps her on safe ground. Not too bland, nor in danger of Sueism. Being a captain sure gave a lot of points from it's part. I think it's no big deal making a Bleach oc a captain, since after all there are three positions open. It's not like stepping on somebody's toes.

Sardoza In reply to Berrycake [2010-01-26 23:58:46 +0000 UTC]

*nods* of course, she won't necessarily be a captain with us until a position opens up, so, sorry about that :<

And, no need to worry about that, I'm fairly certain Asriel hits the boundaries of gary-stuism personality wise. *shrugs* I just do my best to keep him on the good side of the line.

Berrycake In reply to Sardoza [2010-01-27 00:16:21 +0000 UTC]

Ah I didn't mean that! x) I just spoke in general, if making a Bleach oc a captain. I didn't mean your club stuff at all. Whether or not I gain some "position" in groups isn't really important to me. ^^ It might be nice yes if something is offered, but it's also absolutely allright if nothing out of ordinary turns up.

Oh and the litmus test really made a good point about spicing up characters: salt and spice are needed, otherwise the soup will taste like nothing. On the other hand we all know what happens if you put in toooooo much. So one shouldn't be afraid, or necessarily avoid the qualities listed in the test as they are - only not to overdo them.

Okay time to catch some Z now... it's laaaate here. ~> Bai :3 ~>

Yeah, I noticed that first unfortunately...but this is a very beautiful piece! My advice would be to remember that the arm bends just below the breasts. Like when you fold your arms in a "Hmph!" sort of way.

FAVE!

Nice to hear, that her expression shows the intended feeling. Expressions are mighty difficult, atleast I find them so.

And what comes to your wondering thoughts, hang in there! As we say in Finland, the day will eventually shine even to a chicken's butt! (Yes, been there many times miself. )

Well there's nothing wrong with your technique, so if it's a problem-area for you, I suggest you focus on working on expressions.
And days might be brighter soon.
