This vignette probably took me about an hour total. I started out building it on one of those 10x10 bricks, with the corners that stick out and have pegs on them. (If you know what I mean. If not, don't worry about it.) Then I switched to a bigger base because I thought it needed more action. Enjoy! The overall vignette: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1549.jpgFrom above: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1551.jpgThe policeman. He's wielding a Brickarms SW500. There's a security camera on the top left. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1552.jpgI call this guy "Vinnie Slick." He brandishes an M1911 and a bristling 'stache. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1553.jpgThe guy scaring the poor teller is your generic "Joe Thug." He's packing an M47, but a customized one with the clip sawn off to make it look less military/police-like and more like a hunting weapon. He also has a backpack. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1554.jpgThe terrified teller: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1555.jpgThe other teller, cowering behind her desk as the firefight rages. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1556.jpgThis poor man has been wounded in the leg. (His check bounced, too.) He's clutching the... bathroom? ... sign. I'm not quite sure what I intended that sign to represent, but it's close enough to a bathroom sign. Also a good view of the tiled floor. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1559.jpgAnd finally, from behind: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Pesto/Bank/imgp1563.jpg That's all! I hope you like it. I have another vignette coming soon, as soon as I get the pictures up.

Wow, thats really a good vig.
If we didnt have Brickarms, how would we know that pretending to shoot lego with plastic guns is actually pretty fun?

Excellent vigs. I love how you represented a real bank robbery in such a small space. The only thing I could suggest is if you had some type of SWAT team coming out of a van to assist the first officer. It looks just fine without it though. Great job!

I love it! I can honestly not find much wrong with this vig. It is executed wonderfully in such a small space! You are good at building vigs. Can't wait to see more of your work.

Nice vig! Nice choice of heads for the robbers too. US Marines wrote:The only thing I could suggest is if you had some type of SWAT team coming out of a van to assist the first officer. I've got a SWAT team and a van. I should make a vignette with them in it some time.. *Note to self.. make a vig the includes SWAT team. It shall be the vig of all vigs*

Thanks everyone! My original idea was actually to have the police officer bursting through a door or climbing out of a car - sort of like the SWAT team that many of you mentioned. If I ever build a van, then you can be sure I'll make a vignette like you suggested.
