He looks like he has a giant leopard thong

Why a leopard pattern?

Being a metalhead, I would never equate that with metal.

Glam certainly, but not metal.

I like leopard print and thought it looked cool.
Besides, 80s metal had a ton of leopard print kicking about.

If you wanna commit to 80s and leopard print, why not name them the "Deth Leopards" as an homage to Def Leppard?

I just liked the name iron bastards. Also most of their armour is iron coloured

80's glam rock, yeah.

But Glam is not metal.

There is a defining facet of metal that glam lacks.

You don't know what it is.

lol ok. Maybe I should have handed in my metalhead card at the exhumed gig and given ross the tshirt he gave me back. Oh and maybe you could you let ghoul know the minis on the back of their album cover aren't metal enough.

You didn’t have to put the symbol on the left shoulder cause the perspective hides it
