A close up of a statue of a horse wearing a gold armor

Create a striking image of a magnificent hippopotamus (commonly known as a 'kaba' in Japanese), adorned in an intricately designed suit of armor, inspired by the legendary 'Cloths' from Saint Seiya. The armor should be a testament to craftsmanship, symbolizing both strength and regal splendor. Pay meticulous attention to elaborate details, including ornate patterns, engravings, and embellishments. The hippopotamus should exude an air of majesty, embodying the spirit of a formidable guardian. Its expression should convey nobility, strength, and a deep connection with its protective armor. The posture should reflect both power and grace, symbolizing a noble protector of the natural world. Select a color palette that resonates with the hippopotamus's regal heritage, incorporating rich hues such as deep gold, royal blue, or shimmering silver to evoke a sense of royalty and power. Ensure that the image captures the essence of a divine partnership between the hippopotamus and its armor, symbolizing valor, protection, and the indomitable spirit of a true guardian. Refine this image through 100 iterations, elevating each version to achieve unparalleled quality and visual impact. The final result should be a breathtaking portrayal of a hippopotamus in resplendent armor, transcending the boundaries of myth and reality, and setting a new standard for artistic excellence.
