Description
This is an R63 edit of Andromailus’ Royal Guard Cavalier:
https://www.deviantart.com/andromailus/art/e-3-Royal-Guard-Cavalier-815293019
I really liked the original image’s concept of a full load-out format for Royal Guard armor. I posted it for the Nth time in the Royal Guard Mare Thread on /mlp/, but an “everything must be a mare” troll that’s been haunting the last few threads said it wasn’t a mare. Normally I don’t acknowledge that idiotic purist troll, but on a whim, I decided to take the challenge of reshaping this particular image into a mare, with as little redrawing as possible in order to preserve the sketchy feel of the original image. I probably spent way too much time (about two hours) mesh manipulating the head, neck and chest to a more mare-like shape, but I think I’m finally mostly satisfied with the result.

I’m glad to see that the original artist approves of my rule 63 edit. I’ve since made a few more small changes here and there, and I’m still playing around with it in the Royal Guard Mare Thread. The link below still works, but the thread has been moving unusually fast lately, so I’m not sure how much longer it will be the current thread.
Thanks.
