This is a Ptolemaic Soldier (late 3rd Century BC). It was first published in issue 1 of "Ancient Warfare" magazine June/July 2007
The depiction of equipment details around the main figure and the small figurine (in black) to give the scale of the spear (sarissa) helped to improve the efect of the illustration.
