Doctor Whooves - Knight of the Republic

Doctor Whooves, scout for the New Lunar Republic.
He's quite adapt at locating the enemies encampment and then promptly leading his squadron in the completely opposite direction with a rallying battle cry of "We can discuss our differences over tea later!"



Details: Mostly I just tried to keep the armour in line with the general armour that's already in the show while incorporating elements that I think fit while with Luna's Republic, the night, the moon, blue colours, etc. Armours a cross between medieval European and Japanese armour, also I think there's some Sailor Moon in there.
I like the idea of horns on helmets as an imitation tactic and I love antlers so that explains that.

Time: Around six hours. Most of which was just me fiddling with the armour, trying to get it to not look too much like a handful of random elements thrown together. I was smart and made separate layers for that. Ha! However I was stupid and left it until the last minute. Smooth.

"Tensions between the Princess Sisters have risen once again. However this time, unlike 1000 years ago, the Princess of the Night has a significant amount of support.

Princess Luna has gone to launch the New Lunar Republic, while Celestia has morphed her kingdom into the Solar Empire! Which side will you join in the struggle?"
