About.doc

About me

Hiya, I'm Hanne! Though I go by Yupii online. I am a Freelance Game Artist & Marketing Graphic Designer with over 3 years experience based in Europe and a VTuber at nightime.I mostly focus on Character focused Illustrations and find most of my fun lies there, I often like to design characters/mascots as well either for my own projects or existing works. Of course I also enjoy drawing fanart here and there. I'm a big fan of retro media, be it games or series/films and like to incorporate much of it into my work.While illustrating is mostly my focus, I am flexible to different art styles and forms of art, as well as different mediums and gladly enjoy experimenting with new things. Recently these endeavors are in Live2D.

YupiiHunie.EXE

Yupii Hunie
An Aspiring Magical Girl

Yupii Hunie
Regular Human (and aspiring magical girl)
Height: 168 cmYupii has always wished to be a magical girl since she was just a kid, even wishing upon a shooting star to become one. But reality was unkind with her and her dream was never achieved. On a regular stroll, a magic creature falls from the sky straight into her face. The creature claims its been looking for her for many years to unlock her power but because Yupii has become older and more jaded with reality, it alone can't draw out her full power. The creature, called a Huniepii, claims if more of their species find her they can unlock her full power! So Yupii attempts to do just that...via streaming!Mayhaps this time...she can achieve her dream.

Witchpii.EXE

Witch Yupii Hunie
The Story Travelling Witch

Witch Yupii Hunie (also reffered as "Witchpii". At times insists to be called "Miss Hunie")
Immortal Witch
Height: 168 cmA version of Yupii from an alternate world who instead of becoming a magical girl, became an immortal witch. She tricks Normal Yupii into summoning the witch to her realm through a poorly written chant (that she wrote herself). Her telltale visual difference from Normal Yupii is that her color theming is purple, her hair is more of a pastel color going into purple and her eyes are purple as well, not to mention her telltale fang.
Unlike regular Yupii, she is more of a villainness and a brat. Make no mistake though, she is very easy to bully.But other than that, she is not all that different from her 'regular' counterpart even if she stubbornly insists to be the better version between the two.
Her power is to cross dimensions and visit different stories/worlds to her will...maybe her power is a hint to Normal Yupii's dormant power?
