Glasgow's world-famous King Tut's venue recreated in miniature by local artist

Prolific model-maker Karen Bones has this week completed a miniature version of King Tut's Wah Wah Hut to add to her ever-growing collection of scaled-down Glasgow landmarks.

The talented visual artist, whose real name is Karen Bonella and who sells her creations on her Bricks & Bones website, recently unveiled her take on the Barrowlands Ballroom and has previously created models of other well-known buildings and places of entertainment around the city and further afield.

Made from mostly cardboard and foam, Karen's King Tut's model features the entire townhouse above the basement venue and comes complete with steps, railings, realistic lighting and the 300-capacity venue's iconic signage.
