I wonder. Are the guards required to dye/bleach their coats for the uniform?

KP-ShadowSquirrel In reply to AgentTasmania [2013-08-26 08:55:13 +0000 UTC]

Something like that is probably involved - or they really are all clones...

I like to think that there is an enchantment on the armor that changes their colors whenever they put it on.

Not to mention wearing colored contacts.

The mane is part of the helmet and the tail is fake. Their naturals of both have to be short shorn.

They forsake all else for their station. In their mortal for they give all that they are to protect she who has given herself for all time to lead Equestria to an ever brighter future.

But Flash Sentry gets special treatment because Equestria girls is composed of plot holes like narrative chain mail.

In regards to the last part, I mean, come on, they're just reused guard vectors, all of them are. I doubt they'd have to have a certain look about them besides the uniform. Shining Armor is an exception as well. He may have a white coat, but his mane and tail are far darker than the normal blue.
And in the Crystal Empire, the guy that came in only 10 seconds into the first part took off his helmet. The hairs may be fake, but his mane had legit blue and teal color to it.

Ah, the joys of trying to parse what's to be considered canon and what's just cartoonery or animator laziness.

Hey, it was animator laziness before EQG. It's still not confirmed canon on your theory, so all you can do is assume.

AgentTasmania In reply to LucasPratt [2013-08-26 03:54:58 +0000 UTC]

Or maybe Shining and Flash are allowed to keep their natural tails because they're officers.
All the grunts have to be uniform.

Flash is a new guy. I dunno, he did announce Twilight's entrance. Maybe he is a different sort of rank, as his armor is different as well, like Shinings.

Ah, so Flash is a Herald.
Makes sense. Special armour and colours for the Officers and Specialists.

Looks epic.

I only wish guards in Royal Wedding episode wouldΒ  act the way as on this image, because mane 6 beat up 100 changelings, and what hundreds of Royal Guards did ?

Disappeared or got tied up without even seconds screen time of battle.

Another funny think, in Equestia Girl episode, you can see few guards patroling, but the moment Twilight follow Sunset Shimmer, all of the sudden all guards are on coffee break, lol.

Indeed, the guards have not been shown to be very useful or effective yet.

Captain of the guard was giving information to the Changeling Queen, basically giving the Queen everything she needed to know about Equestria's defenses.

I just love this! I've always had a thing for the guards, you did an awesome job with the armor and I love how his horn is shinning, plus as usual the lighting is fantastic! This has got to be one of my favorites so far!

Just spamming your inbox. Spamspamspam.

But seriously, really nice work. Β  Great technically (except for placeholder shadow, but it's about the guard, not the world around him), but you could add more story, like shadow cast on him by a monster or something.

Yes, the background is very minimalistic. Actually I spend about two hours working on a real background for him, but it turned out not to make any sense and IΒ  kicked it out for this one in the end.

Well, going by the guards past display of usefulness and competence, his adversary is probably a disgruntled shrew
