INTERVIEW WITH

BUTCH OF SCOOPEX

			       by PRIME / SCOOPEX
		       (made before Prime joined Scoopex)

Prime - I'm very proud to present an interview with the organiser of Scoopex
	Sweden: Butch. Okey Hugo, please introduce yourself.

Butch - Hmmm well I do some Modemtrading, and a lot of gfx! and a bit of
	organizing. But I think I'm going to leave the organizing thing to
	someone else, cuz it's quite frustraiting! I'm 18 years old, and been
	computing on and off since 85!

Prime - What groups were you in before joining Scoopex? Why did you change?

Butch - Vaxine, Silents. the other 10 groups I've been a member of are
	classified! Well the reson why I'm a bit of a crew jumper is because I
	easily get bored or that nothing happens! But now in Scoopex if nothing
	happens I got my self to blame because I'm the swedish organizer.

Prime - Tell us about Scoopex! What is happening? Are there any plans for
	forthcoming releases?

Butch - Yepp! A demo is on the way! And a bunch of cracks (i hope) And we are
	doing a invitation to Cebit '93 if its not already out when this
	interview is published! And Slayer,Uno & Firefox/PHA are working on
	Mental Hangover II. But if they will ever finnish it?!...
Prime - Who are the members of Scoopex Sweden? Have you got a complete
	memberlist?

Butch - Me(!) - Prospex - Rille - Uno - Invid - Photon - Colorbird -
	Some1 and Prime.

Prime - How long have you been painting with computers? What made you start?

Butch - Hmm.... I started painting a little on the C-64! But I cant say that I
	was any good! And I continued on the Amiga! And here I am! And I bought
	a C-64 a few days ago. I will try draw some stuff on it to! But nothing
	serious!

Prime - Everyone is interested in what way good graphicians proceed when
	drawing. Have you got any special way?

Butch - Yeah! I bought a book with fantasy drawings! And then I digitiz them
	and write: Butch down in the right corner. Not! The only proceedings
	is the once in DP! I love using Shade to create cracks and stuff!

Prime - Where do you get your inspiration from, when drawing?

Butch - Hmmm.... I usually just play aroud in DP! And if it looks nice... then
	I make a logo out of it! And if I draw a picture, then I usually get
	the insperation from a book or magazine.

Prime - I know you have made some graphics for games. Will it be released?
	Are you planning to make any gamegraphics in the future?

Butch - The game is coming great! I got our new map-editor today! The only
	thing left is puting the levels together! A Mega Action Shoot'em Up!!
	And I will do gamegfx whenever I get the chance! I love it!

Prime - You are designing productions too. What do you think is the most
	important thing in the design?

Butch - The most important thing in a demo is gfx & design! With brutal
	gfx & design you can get away with any lame routins easily!

Prime - Tell briefly your opinion about these graphicartists:

	--- Facet: Very good! But a bit over rated in the charts I think!
	--- Uno: He is one of the best! Many have copied his gfx!
	--- Cougar: he's logos are very well drawn! But not that nice looking
	--- Hof: One of my favorites!
	--- Mikael Balle: Hmmm haven't seen that much from him.
	--- Peachy: He should have won in DK!
	--- Duel: WHO? (sorry)
	--- J.O.E.: That TRSI logo is cruel!!

Prime - Why did you chose the handle Butch?

Butch - Hmmm... Don't know! I was about to change name when I found out that
	it can mean: the woman who plays a man in a lesbian marrige!

Prime - What is your goal on the Amiga (if any)?

Butch - Have phun! and phun is what im having! (and make money on games)

Prime - What do you think about the swedish scene? Which contry has the best
	scene, in your opinion?

Butch - That depends alot! USA has got the best modem scene! And the demo
	scene is ruled by us Vikings! (Denmark-Norway-Sweden)

Prime - Do you like Amiga Parties? What is the best one you have visited?

Butch - That depends on the people there and the organizers! I like the old
	partys better, were there was classrooms instead of a big hall! And I
	want to send a big fuck to the ex members of Hurrilame for there lousy
	organizing! and a big thanx to the dudes that organized...
			- ECES 91 - THE PARTY I & II-

Prime - Are you planning to buy a A1200? Is there a future for it?

Butch - I'm planing on getting one... But I will wait until the new model with
	a new soundchip comes out(in the summer). But I think the A1200 can be
	in for some trouble! Like the lack of space at the disks and so! Well
	we will just have to wait and see!
