So I was proud of myself for finishing two commissions in one day, finishing up 6 layouts for 6 other commissions, thumbnailing all of FG issue 4 and, yes AGAIN (blame my publisher okay), redoing the logo for it all in a record time of 3 1/2 days. So I decided to draw something for myself, and of course you guys. HA it's Lotis~ He's so like.... neglected. I've been wanting to draw him so badly lately. He's a fun guy, bit of a goof ball, but quite possibly the COOLEST older brother anyone could have (The kind that lets you drink as LONG as you share with him ). As I mentioned in the picture featuring him and Firn, he's currently working to become General, which is the position Firn is in now. He's second in command and often times goes on skirmishes with the new recruits and trains them on open ground and stuff. Being only 21 he can be kind of careless and forget that fact that he can... get hurt and well... probably die if he's not careful so he comes home looking like this a lot. Bruised, bloody, sore, and just down right worse for wear. But he loves it. Much to Hanz's annoyance. Lotis is sitting here thinking up a valid excuse for why he's so banged up after only 'training' as well as preparing himself mentally for the bitching out Hanz is sure to give him for not being careful. Yes... Hanz is the girl in their family situation. Lotis and Hanz are very close and often times Hanz is up till late hours worrying about his brother or sewing up wounds too deep to be left alone. I hope I can get across how close these two are as well as how Lotis' life dream of being General puts strain on their relationship.

AND for anyone who thinks his tattoo is overly feminine, please, I dare you say that to his face. His weapon of choice is a double bladed staff that's longer than he is tall (6 feet even) and he's known for being a bit.... stab and kill happy. Okay, he was drunk alright. It's what happens when you're in the military around a bunch of guys all the time. Hanz has already gone mother hen on him about mutilating his body, so give the guy a break. LOL!
