Bar diorama completion, finally

Just wanted to throw in these photos of my New Orleans themed bar 'The Lagniappe Pub ', complete with a Zydeco band.  It lives on my dresser...





Hope this works!

Wow, so many cool details, lighting, decor and props, not to mention the figures - wonderful work! Great to have it somewhere on display to admire.

That's impressive! Complete with Jukebox, performance corner and pool table! And I love all the little things on the walls, especially the bathroom door and sign.  Very cool!

Oh how awesome! So many fun details. It's a great diorama in its own right, but also a very creative way to show off and display your figures!

Brilliant, brilliant work Faith! The bar turned out so well! I'd love to pop in for a pint. It looks lively and fun! Love it!

thats a really nice looking dio!!! love it

Ohhh! Oh, maaan! That lighting you've integrated in to the Gloria Happy Hour Play Set is fantastic! The repaint and detailing is even more fantastic!

And the back bar looks so classy! That's some seriously impressive work to make the back bar look so realistic and stylish! With integrated lighting there, too!

Love those ultra-modern bar stools!

And... real neon!!!1

Amazing make-over of a pink plastic "playline" piece! You could work on that "bar rescue" TV show!

That looks completely and thoroughly excellent. The furniture, the fitting, the figures, the atmosphere, every single thing. The little alligator is a funny touch, and I hope it is intended as a stuffed prop, rather than an actual threat to customers.

Oh man! That is awesome! As stated, so many cool items. The neon lights are cool. Love the guy with the washboard. That bar is something else. Excellent work.

That is a very cool diorama! I especially like the neon lights on the walls.

The billard table seems a bit squeezed in and could be a bit higher, but he is nevertheless a nice addition to a bar diorama.

The band part is great

Looks awesome and cozy!

That looks great!
Unfortunately, not many of these dioramas fit into one flat.

Really awesome little bar you got there. lots of details too.

Doubled sided dio walls is the way to go

The lighting and details are fantastic. Inspiring.

Thanks ! And thanks for the posters (everyone loves the bathroom Batman sign) and all the inspiration!

Thanks! A little too much detail, it's a tight squeeze in there. Wish I had an extra foot so it wouldn't look so crowded!

Thanks! I took the legs off the pool table and replaced them with a higher base. Yeah, It would be hard to play pool in there. I have a Foosball table I couldn't fit in there. Also an ATM and a video game....Oh well!

Thanks, the white lights are being held up with a ton of micro glue dots! Took awhile, lol!

i'm not sure how long the top of my dresser is...I have another similar dresser if I really wanted to attach them together and build on to the bar. It is lacking in many ways!

The neon lights were really inexpensive, I was surprised at how cheap everything costed, but it still ate up my funds!

So glad you like it! It's not perfect, but room constraints, ya know? I took inspiration from my many years In New Orleans. The Zydeco bar is called 'To De Bayou' One guy has it custom printed on his shirt! It will also be decorated for holidays, especially Mardi Gras!

Sooki's is fantastic, as is the Tiki bar, which I don't see much anymore. You cornered the market on Gloria bars! Lol! Thanks for motivating me to keep working on it when I wanted to quit!

Thanks! I'm writing my first photostory in the bar, it has Dal's character, which I surprised him with a replica. Still writing it though!
