Here is a short vig I threw together.
Former army sargent Drew Tysson was a sniper for the 103rd airborn divison. fighting rebel troops in russia his squad was seperated, and Tysson was cornered. he resolved to fight rather than flee or turn himself over. hope you like! ;)

It looks pretty cool, but I don't see a baseplate.

It looks good but can we see a closer picture.

Please let me shoot you.

I'm not sure if this would count as a vignette. There's no baseplate, and the bunker looks like a beach shell (it's hard to tell exactly what it is)

My advice: Give it a baseplate, give it a solid LEGO bunker, and give it some love. Try posing the figs in more dynamic poses, opposed to being wooden.

The best thing to remember is to take your time.

You could try browsing MOCs on Flickr or Brickshelf for inspiration. I often find techniques and ideas I never knew before (just don't forget to give credit to the maker if you do use there designs :) ).

Looks cool, but I can't see it well.

You need to get a better camera, and you seriously need base plates not flat legos! Otherwise I liked the way you positioned the people.

Nah the bunker shouldn't have a roof cause then you can't see what's happening inside. The ancient cannon doesn't fit in this fig with modern weapons maybe you can make a cannon of you're own?
