Happy (Belated) Brithday, Xalcer13!

Description

During his assignment to the watchtower in Southern Equestria, Xalcer quickly became a seasoned guard.  He also learned many important lessons that come with patrolling the dense surrounding forests:

-Keep a trim profile; the last thing you want is your uniform getting stuck in the underbrush when a manticore has his sights on your flank.

-If you're going to be out there a long time, you might as well take everything.  You never know what you might need in those long hours.

-Never forget the importance of some good, thick-soled boots.  Those fancy, schmancy guards in Canterlot don't have to deal with trudging through the mud for 10 miles.


For :iconxalcer13:, whose birthday I missed by a mile.  Better late than never, I guess.  Perspective was hard with the pose I chose, but all in all, I'm happy with how he turned out, especially with the bags, and the keeping in tune with the royal guard look despite the clearly personalized armor.
