# About me

Why District1701?

One day while doing absolutely nothing at school, like usual, I notice something was carved on the classroom door. It said "Smoke Pot", but the person who put it there didn't have good hand writing, so it looked like it said "Smoke 1701". My favorite song is The District Sleeps Alone Tonight, so I just took the word District and while I was trying to come up with names at school I noticed the carving again. So, I made District1701.

--------------------------------------------

What thing am I most interested in doing artwork of?

I love doing designing for anything that has to do with cubes! The first thing I ever learned to draw 3-D was a cube, back in 4th grade, my friend taught me how to draw a cube the cheap way. I saw how he drew it and I copied it on my paper, but I instead gussied it up a bit. And somehow I just kept practicing my 3-D shapes and drawings, and that's what got me into art, but it wasn't until 8th grade until I noticed the slightest spark of talent.

What program do you use to do your sprites?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

District1701 In reply to TekkMonsta [2010-09-10 01:43:35 +0000 UTC]

MS Paint, Photoshop, and Paint.NET.

Paint (very important) to draw/make the sprites.

Paint.NET (important) to edit the sprites and add transparency.

Photoshop (secondary) to add animation if needed.

I said to a certain extent! It's only fun until you're too old for it, then you gotta sit in your living room with a bowl of candy, waiting for little kids to come to your door begging for candy.
