A few months ago Lawrence contacted me about making a few miniature replica models. His good friend Mike owns Wheeler’s a local Brooklyn bar celebrating its 45th year in business. When he told me the name of the place, I knew it right away. This is an epic local bar serving great food and drink. With a great atmosphere where you are treated like family. It’s a casual setting serving steaks, burgers and more. Lawrence told me how much of a great friend Mike is to him. And how much having a Major Miniature model would mean. I agreed. The mini was an exciting build. I matched the exterior stones and recreated their previous classic signage, which I especially liked. Mike loves the model and is proud to display it. Replicas of the miniatures are available to those that want a piece of history. Happy 45th Wheeler’s, keep going strong!
