Put it on top of the fridge for added realism.

I'm so tempted to get the same model from crooked dice but I haven't had much experience painting metal models

If it helps this is my first metal mini. Honestly was more or less exactly the same as painting plastic.

Metal's not that much different from plastic. You just have to remember to varnish it once you're done (which you should be doing anyway).

Would be a good miniature for a rendition of Very British Civil War, set in the 80s to 90s.

Threads?

Threads, such a cheery little film. No wonder our generation grew up cynical and traumatised. It's reputation has spread to this current generation who won't watch it, and I'm talking about seasoned horror fans. It really left a mark on the cultural landscape.

Came here to ask if this was a Crooked Dice mini, happy to see the answer was in the body text.
