Anthro Shining Armor (Patreon)

Having recently posted his wife  I thought it only appropriate to post some images of Shining Armor, Captain of the Royal Guard. 

Now Shining Armor often gets portrayed as being more of a jock than a high ranking military officer, both by Hasbro and the fans. However in my Equestria dreamscape I see him as a stallion who has a very compartmented life. When he's in uniform he's usually all business, but when he's off-duty and with friends, family, and now his wife and foal he's much more laid back.

Since I imagine Equestria being an interesting mix of 19th century Europe and the US. So I envisioned his dress uniform being like one of those cuirassier. Especially since many of their design elements were actually suppose to be inspired ancient Roman equipment. Which most of the armor worn by the Guard in series has a slight Classical feel.
