One of the most common questions is how do I make Genuine Draft. With LEGO® Brand Bricks is a common answer, but really it’s a bit more technicle than that. This is the basic of how I create Genuine Draft.

For starters I use Macs running Adobe Creative Suite 2, a Wacom Graphire 4 tablet, and a Samsung Digital point and shoot camera. I also use the cheapest spiral notebooks I can find, Wal-Mart durring back to school season is a great place to get many supplies.

First I start off by plotting out the story. Sometimes it’s a paragraph or more detailed outline. Scripting comes next. Then I build the set or use an existing one. Film it using a Samsung 7.2 megapixel camera with the macro setting turned on and the flash off. Import the pics to the computer and go from there to the detailed pictures. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I’ve decided to break from the regular format of Genuine Draft and feature the weekend single panel comics all week long. So starting on Saturday August 14th and running through Sunday August 22nd.

What’s the reason behind all of this? Well it’s simple really. I am working on a new storyline and it’s taken longer than expected to write. The sets have been built for a while now, just getting the details right is taking the most time. So enjoy Single Draft for the next week, then it will resume it’s Saturday and Sunday updates.

The BCN is here to announce our next contest! Build a vehicle for the series 2 collectable minifigs. The new collectable minifigs are cool but they need something to get around in. Your task is to build them a vehicle, any kind of vehicle as long as it represents the minifig. For offical rules and entry information go here. Prizes will be the minifig themselves, and more to be announced later.

You don’t need to have a Series 2 Minifig to enter.

One of my favorite comics I read is called, “How Sweet It Is” by Scott A. Jenkins, known better by Jynksie. Durring a break in sorting the lego, at the time sorting the greebles and misc technic stuff which are a bunch of small stuff which is really boring a pain really. Anywhoo.
