Never the Dragon
Posted: June 24th, 2024, 8:22 am
To celebrate his 15th birthday, and a (late) forum birthday, I should put the main boy up. The guy in the favicon on the title bar of this forum. The himself, Never the Dragon
Created at the end of the school year in 2009, I don't remember his actual creation date, other than "Sometime in June". I made it be the 24th, as MY birthday is also on the 24th (of March). Plus 24 is a lucky number to me
2009 was quite a long time ago. I myself wasn't even an adult yet. Hell, it wouldn't be until 2016 that I even got my first job. I didn't even know what a furry was until I got my first personal internet device in 2013. So a lot has changed in the past many years. Even Never himself has changed. The first ever commission I got of him was in February 2016, and he was BALD! You can see it here. He really was bald. And boy has he changed.
Over the years I have worked on his design. His horns chip off and get lighter in color under the layers. He has such a jagged tooth line. His spade-tipped tail is VERY dark purple. He went from 7'6" to 10'4" to 12"0' to his current height of 13 1/2" tall (+11 inches for his horns). He has a Quad height that's still being determined; Standing height on all fours, measured from feet to head, might be around 35 feet plus horns. Still a work in progress however. Anyways, he's forever changing and evolving into things as I learn cool new features for him. 15 years of history is a lot of time.
For the record, by the way, while the character concept is 15 years, he's my age. He's over a quarter century in age, so Never isn't actually a minor. His existence is just 15 years.
Anyways, here's a few pics of him, but you can always view more at fursona.neververy4.com/neverthedragon.
