Everything here is really self explanitory, aka I don't want to talk aboot it. Sassy's hair, the red head not on the screen, is wearing a grey hair piece that was colored red. It was fine but everytime I would touch it, the color would rub on my hands and get all over her face and body. It was a pain to clean.

Anyone here look familier? Raven perhaps? The truck is from an Indiana Jones set. I just recently got another one on clearance at the Lego store. It's a really cool WW2 era truck.

The Zuchai are the big mecha builders in this world. They were an off shoot of the Zuckas, who were constantly fighting with the Pudari. Think, Isreal & Palestine or Ireland & England. Philosophicly different lead to years of war. Solomeade took advantage and over ran both countries, now they are a scattered people. Pudari and Solo's have a contentious past as well.

Now the first time this set was used, was at the first part of the Battle Mark storyline, it was on a green baseplate and had a slightly different interior. I had purchased some 6 x 16 black plates which are used above the white walls. When I moved it to the large grey baseplate, I rebuilt it where the red door can be removed and other wall pieces could be used on the back side. It's also part of the universal set. In Strip 100, the construction workers are actually in this set. The holotable has been used as Bob, Joe, and Tommy's coffee table. Nice thing aboot Lego is their versatillity.

By the time I filmed this strip, the script format was finalized, and I began putting the picture numbers from the camera on to their coresponding panels in the script.

This sequence was reshot. When I originally filmed this I didn't like the way the fire turned out. The smoke was fine but the fire looked fake for Lego. Then while reading, Legostar Galactica's "Legoes" storyline the cheerleader was in a burning building and the fire was similar. So I reshot since the set was still built.

Of course military stuff is uncomfortable. And bitching aboot your job is mandatory. Now, the forest backgrounds are from scrapbooking paper. I was still experimenting with how to make them look good. One thing I've learned, is to hide the seams as much as possible.

This set is buit on the baseplate to my very first Lego set. 588 Police station, in 1978. I like the set built here, it's still complete, I wanted to use it again and haven't taken the time to disassemble it. All four walls are removeable, as you can see in panel 3, it's rather small.

The treaty stipulates no vehicles. But arming yourself to the teeth is okay. Yeah, didn't think that one out.

Strip # 191 Updated On 4/22/09
Ah yes, the after crash results of not having all my fonts put back, which resulted in the substitution. The morality of a treaty. If the people you signed the treaty with are no longer there, do you enforce it still or do what you want?

Okay, everyone got a gun, a back pack, something? When the "Battlemark" comics were originally shot, which were nearly a year ago or more, my supply of weapons were realitivly small. Now I could arm everyone with better weapons and look way cooler. But it all seems to fit in.

Strip # 193 Updated On 4/24/09
Some of my favorite pics are the view screens, easy to do when the tablet has all of it's drivers. Another result of the crash. Which was caused by the kvm switch that was used.

Mylar was a nice peaceful country. They liked everyone and expected no one to invade. Boy were they wrong, I envisioned the way they were overun by the way Germany Blitzed through Europe in WW2.

Monoth and Aquarial. Solomeade doesn't have large access to oceans. They are landlocked for the most part. The Monoth, have a coast but don't do much on the water. Aquarial, they are seafairing people. I envision Hawaii with a strong Navy to protect themselves. Rimminion, has industry, agriculture, military, and people. But they do tend to isolate themselves a bit with their ideologies.
