Ever since I started posting my various tan alien creations, people have been asking more background on the aliens and the creations.
I’ve finally gotten around to making one up, and telling it. I tried something new, and have created a comic describing illustrating the initial encounters between the aliens and the Galactic Inquisition.
It’s my first foray into LEGO comics (or any other kind of comic writing) so I hope it reads well, and I’m sure folks will let me know if it doesn’t. [Edit] Folks have asked, so I’ve started putting up photos of the new stuff that I created for this comic.
Comics are always good.
I’ve been enjoying the site for a few weeks. I haven’t gone through all the archives, but do you happen know of resources about photographing LEGOs? Comics I know. http://www.patrickrennie.com/phantaststaffing/images/lego1.jpg Photography, not so much.
There are a lot of resources for photographing LEGO stuff. There are several threads kicking around on flickr, and this thread may be helpful. In general, I recommend a good tripod and a lot of light. A lot of people use store-bought light tents in order to achieve diffuse lighting.
Thank you, Dan. :)
Yay! The more comics the merrier!
Interesting and well-done. I was a bit surprised to see a (vaguely) humanoid shape in the emissary, since I’d gotten the impression that the tan aliens WERE the aliens- some type of biomechanical living ship. Or maybe some are. Hooray for cows first foray into LEGO Space.
(Is that why the cows were mutilated, they were witnesses?)
