There are a few things I don't like about this piece; Firstly the magic around Firoz's right hand and also the half-assed background, but otherwise I'm really pleased with this ^__^
I realised when commissioning :iconmonartha: to draw Fiz that I didn't have a decent full-body(ish) picture of the guy, which is shameful since he was my first active character and probably my favourite too.

Originally, there was this whole story about Firoz swapping bodies with this girl called Rose, but she was seriously annoying and I liked this Firoz so much better, so that storyline was completely scrapped (besides, it's kinda unfair of poor Archevis who would have just come home from war to find that his brother had gone missing). However the Firoz that was actually Rose somehow obtained a jumper with "DENIM tm" on it which I couldn't bring myself to completely get rid of. So now Firoz has a similar hoodie courtesy of Archevis. :D

Out of curiosity, what kind of age does he look here? Even if you know how old he actually is, I'd like to know how old he looks. I'm really bad at drawing people their actual age x_x

Even better coloured! :D

I think the background's awesome. It makes Fiz stand out 'cause it's simple, but still adds the 'wahey' factors that background generally do. I love the butterfly too ^_^

I'd say he looks around 16/17... But I'm really bad at judging ages...

8D I'm really pleased with the colouring on this one xD

lol I know what you mean with wahey factors xD I wasn't going to add it originally but I needed some kind of background to make the butterfly show up.

He's actually 18, but it's probably good that he looks younger because... he looks younger than he really is *making excuses*

Quite probably, actually. He's pretty childish for his age.

Hmm. I'd say..hm. 16 years old. Thats my guess.

BUTTERFLY MAGIC! 83 Pretty work, you may have gotten a little hasty with the background. But it doesnt look bad anyway. 8)

>w< close, he's 18 but he should look younger than he really is.

x3 Yeah.... the background sucks, but it's a background!!

Yeah... the definition of my backgrounds is that they kinda suck xD
