Alexander the Great's Dad and Cousin - Warlord Games

The Philip of Macedon figure comes with the mounted Alexander the Great figure (yet to be painted); and the Pyrrhus of Epirus figure is a "freebie" that comes with the Pyrrhic Wars supplement.

Philip's armor is based upon the one found in his tomb. The cuirass is made of iron, and some sources say it was polished to high shine, while other sources have it covered in silk. Pyrrhus' armor is sometimes depicted as silvered, or possibly of iron also.
Both figures are well detailed; the Epirote tripod motif nicely sculpted on the shield and back of the cape.

I was going to start on the Alexander figure next, but I might be getting some more Eureka Hawaiians in the mail tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by, and wishing you all the best!
