Philip II or a good Mythic Hero
« on: April 07, 2013, 06:04:30 PM »
I have really enjoyed painting this miniature. It's one of my new favourite figures. I have plans for one of these for my own collection, not as Philip but as a Mythic Hero fighting Cyclops, Harpies and whoever dares to stop in front of him. I think the pose is fantastic. I haven't got any comparison pictures but when I paint mine I'll take one. He is based on a 20x20mm base. He's from Warlord Games.

Also help that he will have an army to help support his adventurers.  :D
And he looks very nice.
