Macedonian Hoplite – 4th Century BCE Heavy Infantry
This miniature represents a Macedonian hoplite of the 4th century BCE — the era of Philip II and Alexander the Great, when Macedon reorganized warfare and forged one of history’s most formidable fighting forces. Hoplites of this period fought in disciplined formations, equipped with a round shield, spear, and reinforced armor.
Their role was foundational to the maneuvers of the famed Macedonian phalanx, a formation that reshaped the battlefields of the ancient world.
This figure is cast in high-quality white metal (tin) and meticulously hand-painted with layered shading and highlighting to create depth, lifelike tones, and realistic material textures. The miniature is mounted on a finished display base, ready for presentation.
