Easy, just record a riff you want and improvise with licks and stuff to it until something cool comes out, then save it and do it some more until you have a ... you guessed it a solo!

a dumb thing to do is start making a solo out of nothing..cause then you have to make a riff FOR the solo and that sucks. and the solo wont be that good cause you have nothing to like.. feed it of

as for leads you do the same thing. play a riff in the background and improvise a lead over it until you're happy

check out my licks on the metal section. maybe you'll find some of it useful
