Thick as a brick

xposted from Tumblr, this picture goes with the other one of Gaz with his head in his hands.

I just set out to draw an Uncomfortably Hot Gaz (because i aint pullin NO stops to make people love this boy) then this morning i woke up feeling bad so i drew this very upset Gaz and it actually led me to think about body headcanons…

I’m thinking the first picture would probably be sometime back in the warcamps, maybe shortly before deserting because at that point he had very little to do and a lot of frustration to work out. besides, although Sadeas’ soldiers tend to be rowdy and lax with the rules, i’d guess they probably still keep their body in good shape on account of not wanting to die on the battlefield. (yes i know Gaz doesn’t go on the battlefield, STILL)
Also regular meals, exercise, etc… All stuff very conductive to building up strong muscles.

The second picture would be sometime after going from almost starving to death in the frostlands to having money and nothing to do all day but get drunk and gamble. He’d probably lose most of that muscle mass in a fairly short time, then gain the weight right back as fat.

So i guess the second picture is Gaz having a “man i let myself go” moment after, i guess, having some shirt buttons pop from his gut.
