I would say maybe a mini rex cross and his coloring is what we call a charlie broken, meaning he has alot of white and very few markings. could you maybe get a closer pic?

a Hoto cross would be my guess. The eye rings and some of the features.
There is definitely some Hotot in the mix

"There is definitely some Hotot in the mix"
What makes you think that? Do you realize how rare a hotot is?
There are a LOT of breeds that can have that kind of coloring, not just english spots, rhinelanders, checkered giants, or hotots.
That would be considered a charlie. That would mean that it came from two broken colored parents, and that it has two broken genes, giving it a lighter color pattern.
It looks like a lop cross of some form. He has really wide lop type ears. He also has a very large, broad head.
I bet that he is some kind of dwarf/lop cross.... Lop crosses usually wont have lopped ears. Especially with such small ears. The crown that they have to make their ears lop is a band of caratlidge that makes their ears lop. When you cross them with an up earred rabbit, you loose that.

and just because he has rings around his eyes doesn't mean anything excpet that he is a broken. Pretty sure all brokens have eye circles...and his circles look nothing like the eyeliner on hotots or dwarf hotots.
Anyway, I think maybe TCRabbitry has an idea there.
