Description
For Louisa, who knew me well enough to know that snarky, cocky sky pirates in leather pants would cheer me up immeasurably.Balthier, Final Fantasy XII's self proclaimed leading man.
(actually, I agree with that assessment... the leading man should always be the hot guy with the sexy accent in leather pants)

Hell yeah! Leather pants are of the win.. I'm actually mildly obsessed with a sexy poetically violent man in leather pants at the moment.. Telemachus Rhade from Andromeda.. so totally of the sexy... *wanders off into her own little world*

Ahh, Balthier, in my opinion the most swoon-worthy FF character ever. Haha, I only ever play as him, so he's like ten levels higher than the other characters! Balthierrr <3
Hehe, I really like his ear and earrings, for some reason.

Seriously though, this is probably the best Balthier I've seen yet, I especially love the way you painted the hair. ;D Kudos!
