This is the best I can do with kitbashing. I could live with it but I do think I'll have a go at modeling it. If it turns out okay, it will turn into my next freebie. UV mapping and texturing are my nemises so nothing I do is ever really product paid product quality, just a heads up on that.
I've used the tavern for a number of my illos for various fan fests and what all. Generally just twiddled with the diffuse for color and used warm lights. (Of course, I was working in 3DL). Did have to kitbash the door, since the one of the Tavern isn't rigged to open.
How small does a file have to be before you can upload it? I've taken the one I'm trying to upload from 800px down to 648px and it still won't upload. It's 72ppi, and even at the befinning was only 223kb.
(Question answered. It did upload. It just wouldn't show the thumbnail.)
Turbosquid has some classic beer pumps as previously posted. Four different models. On sale today. May have to convert from .3DS or get their "free conversion" service.
This is a little old Irish pub and restaurant. Clicking on the history button gives some nice images, as do a couple of the other buttons

My son says they do nice food.
I had to chuckle at one of the children's menu items...chicken nuggets and french fries. Never considered that had become so universal.
Sincerely,
Bill
well Balbriggan is trying to promote itself as "Ireland's youngest town" maybe they have to have a few modern items on the menu - although the Man o' War is in the rural part of town.
My son will be busy for the next year or so in the background of the promotional stuff as he works for Balbriggan Chamber of Commerce.
Now that is sufficient at opening or closing time; mostly the floors need to be darker, glossier, and smaller slats. Looks inviting as a pub.
Sketchup Warehouse has some traditional beer pump models as well.
....not bad.
...hmm I have couple thatched roof buildings I picked up as freebies.
...there's a beer engine in .obj format at CG trader for 9$

There is a 16 hands statue of an old horse called Man O'War a few miles north of where I used to work. Massive statue. I think it's 20 hands on it's pedestal. That was supposed to be the greatest race horse ever. In US, evey place likes to call themselves 'the youngest' but it's codespeak for overpriced and faddish.
Man O' War was one of the greatest race horses of the 20th century. Also wound up being the sire for a really startling number of very good race horses in the next generation, and thus wound up in the bloodlines of a lot of horses after that. Considered a "heavy" thoroughbred type -- tall and big, which explains the height of the statue. I think he's mostly remembered in part because of timing -- he was the first great thoroughbred after WWI and after the restoration of horse racing. Didn't win the Triple Crown because he didn't race in the Kentucky Derby; his owner felt that was too much to ask of a young three year old. Set several speed records that stood for a long time. He also carried heavier weights than almost any race horse since.
... Ahem. Yes, apparently stuff that you read back when you were a teenager will lodge in your head and choose the oddest moments to make an appearance.
On topic ... I got nothin'. Although darker wood shaders with smaller tiling would help, whether you wind up using the kitbashed stuff or making your own.
Horse racing is very much on topic with pubs like rugby and football are on topic. Have you never visited a pub?
I've begun working on a traditional Irish pub. To make it warm and cozy, it has to have a fireplace, and to make it look traditional it has to be stone in my view. So I made one. I added it to the kitbash for the moment, just to see how it looks. Textures are all from Filter Forge so they are shareable.
EDIT: I've updated the fireplace and created some rough hewn beams, I like that "it's been here 200 years" feel of some of the pubs I've been in in Ireland. So I'm going with that. Stone fireplace, massive timber beams, maybe even stone floors. Right now only the beams and fireplace (and associated textures) are my own work, the rest are primatives and props from other sets just to make it look pub-like.
They almost have a proper ratio of pubs tah flies.
I only drink chilled stuff ifit's both paid for ot of someoneelses's pocket AND all there is AND brought tome. I've actually been known tocause a "fuss" is anyonegets into the rare guiness I caan get here.
Yup, kit baashing and re-shading OR modeling it seems to be the way to go.
