*i just realized that if he's over 1,000 in the concept art, hiccup would be dead and wouldn't be able to fix his fake tail* this makes me sad ;-;

I definitely agree with your theory that Night Furies live for hundreds of years - bigger creatures often have longer lifespans.

(Sorry for bad english) Looking at this as a reptile keeper, usually slowly moving creatures with slower metabolism live longer (turtles, larger snakes etc.) but smaller creatures with faster metabolism dont live as long (geckos etc.). Thats why big dragons like red death can live for hundreds of years, unlike terrible terrors which I assume could live around 20. Most reptiles mature at around 1/4 of their lifespan so Toothless is most likely to live to around 80-120yo (given that he was full grown around the 2nd movie and had kids at the end of the 3rd one). Ofc, dragons are fantasy creatures and none of these laws need to matter, Just saying that from factual point of view, Toothless wouldn't outlive Hiccup by that much.

The bewilder beast is young because in race to the edge the last part at the very end you see is hiccup’s mom taking the bewilder beast’s egg

I feel like the older Toothless still retains the personality and look that the Toothless we all know and love does. It looks weird to imagine him looking like that, but people (and animals) look different as we age, so it's not completely crazy. Nice vid too

I love the expression you gave him, so much wisdom with the slightest hint of sorrow for Hiccup's passing.

Everyone in the comments is saying their beliefs and why they think this is wrong/right But putting that all aside, can we just appreciate how much effort went into this? Research Script Background Voiceover Editing Images MULTIPLE drawings with tones of time spent on each one Music +much more This is fricking amazing

for those who are wondering why the tailfin would still be pretty intact: the tailfin is made off toothlesses scales and spit and then torched with his plasma blast. Making it almost identical to real dragon skin, and since night fury skin is fireproof, then the artificial tailfin is fireproof as well, the only thing that would damage it would most likely be another dragon cho chalenges his position as an aplha. But I think the other dragons don't really know its artificial, they'd react to the holder around his tail, but not the fin I'd say.

Yay shes back, i hope ur family is ok silver! Best wishes and stay healthy everyone

If you watch the ending of the last episode of Race to the Edge, it is revealed that the egg of the Bewilderbeast from Berserker Island hatches under Valka's care. Her Bewilderbeast is only a few years old.

that ancient Toothless is absolutely amazing! you’re so talented! and it’s great that you’re back :)

I worry that Toothless might not be able to survive for long without Hiccup occasionally coming to visit and do needed repairs on his tail. It's a wonderful thought that Toothless could live on and on for a long time, but even with an army of dragons to care for him, most likely, without his tail and by extension, his flight, Toothless would most likely weaken and die at some point long after Hiccup dies, unless Hiccup can think of a permanent alternative. We never see how sturdy Toothless' current tail is, but unfortunately I doubt it could last a a hundred years without upkeep.

hmm.. anyone ever thought wow what if his tail fin broke? what would happen? when would it happen? i personally think~ soon.. VERY soon i also like to think that if it did break the lightfury would end up having no other choice but to go to berk, maybe she is seen on her way there by "some'one" ;) zephyr could take on the role of taking care of toothless, maybe the generations of vikings might look up to him in a guardian kind of way and their job is to make sure the hidden world is safe= protecting from outside the hidden world and making sure he can fly seeing as he is the dragons alpha and basically needs to be able to do that. you get what im sayin?

I think due to the dragon sizes, night (and light) Furies and other relatives could only live for about as long as a human, so if toothless can survive (which is highly plausible), he can live from 80 to 100 years old, or even older (I'm pretty sure Max would be 110 based on the oldest human today).

*If you happen to read this comment, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this idea* Fun fact: the first How To Train Your Dragon Movie was set in the year 1010, because in the extras for HTTYD on DVD, in the short skits that tell us what the Viking Olympics were like, the shields that appear at the start of each skit that tells us what the event is, also tells us the year it took place, and the year is 1010, and Hiccup still has his foot in these skits, so Hiccup is still 15 years old (maybe younger) This means that by the time Hiccup and Toothless are both 71 years old, the year will be 1066, so the Vikings and Dragons are literally 56 years away from seeing the Battle of Hastings in the first movie, and Zephyr and Nuffink would be in their 40s and most likely would have had families of their own, so this whole ancient looking Toothless could be an interesting concept to explore if Dreamworks decided to make another story based on that fact (as unlikely as that is to happen) What do you think? Also, awesome artwork btw

We all waited a long time for a new Video and I think all of us are happy that you are back! ♥️

For Valka’s bewilderbeast’s age, if anyone remembers the last episode of dragons edge, It showed a scene of Valka with the bewilderbeast egg, meaning her bewilderbeast is about 6 years old.

can i just say something, how could valka have lived with the dragon for 20 years when she picked up the belwilderbeast egg at the end of the dragons: race to the edge series. in race to the edge hiccup is estimated between 17 and 19 years of age which makes valkas bewilderbeast 3 to 1 years of age, preferably i would say valkas bewilderbeast is 2. ofcourse this is logically. could dreamworks have messed up the timeline? also hiccup in the second movie sais he has never seen anything like t when shown the bewilderbeast however he comes in contact with one in the last episode of dragons: race to the edge. again could this be a messupo in the how to train your dragon timeline. we simply do not know, but one thing is for sure, i dont think valkas bewilderbeast is old and i dont think she has lived with it for 20 years judging by the events in dragons: race to the edge. since she had the egg at the end of dragons: race to the edge, where would she have put that egg other than where she is living. she does not describe meeting it as a youth, but that is simply because the second movie came out before dragons:race to the edge which the first season was released back in 2015. this raises many questions but personally i think the bewilderbeast is a few years of age as every bit of evidence leads to that conclusion, unless valka put the bewilderbeast egg somewhere else and the bewilderbeast she is with is infact ancient. but then this raises the question "where did she take the bewilderbeast egg?" and is it wild?, is it dragos? we simply do not know but as i said this raises many questions or may i say ""this changes everything"

I honestly wish they would just use a female Night Fury, that way it could have actually save toothless's species. Edit: I'm talking about a completely different plot for the movie that doesn't have nothing to do with the light fury because of how awful her design is.

Idk but something about ancient toothless’s face makes him look so kind and gentle

5:42 The age of GRRM dragons is a bit tricky actually,for one thing the show aged them up faster than the books did,for example when Danny takes the city of Meereen in the books the dragons are still about the same size as we saw them in season 3,however in the show they where larger by that point. Another thing to consider is the environmental factors,dragons that can roam free in volcanic regions and a plentiful source of prey and magic is around will let them live longer and reach large sizes faster than dragons that don't have lives like this,example the dragons locked in the DragonPit of KingsLanding where smaller than those at DragonStone where they could also mostly roam free and made there nests around the islands volcano, and in a similar way the great dragons of old Valyria who could grow larger than the mighty Balerion himself. I will say tho that I really like your take on elder Toothless especially all the details like his fin made by Hiccup having started to be torn and slightly smaller than his other fin,but one thing I noticed is that the spots are stripes he had in the first movie and all the tv shows seem to vanish by the second and third movie, I wonder if it's like a cugar or lion who are born spotted but loose the spots as they age.

It doesnt matter how old Night Furies can get Valka said Toothless was Hiccup's age.

IT'S AMAZING!!, YOU ARE BACK! :)

Fun fact: In one dragon book I read, it is said that people believe that dragons are able to be able to live up to 1,000-10,000 years (crazy right?!)

this is so well put together! It's so kind of you to put content out there with everything that's going on for you so thank you so much 💕

The fact that night fury’s lifespan is, idk, around 1000 years but tootless still remember hiccup 😢

In the last episodes of the “Dragons Race to the Edge,” Volka had received the Bewilderbeast’s egg from the female dragon fliers, which means that the bewilderbeast was in fact less than a year old when he appeared to the public based on the time line between the show and the 2nd movie.

Toothless is actually the same age as Hiccup, just making this easier to figure out how old he is.

Silver!! So good to see you back ❤️

Valka’s bewilderbeast is only around 5 years old. Hiccup found its egg near the end of Race to the Edge, and then he leaves and we see Valka in her mask, taking it.

that model of Toothless as an ancient dragon looks awesome and it's exactly what i imagine him as a titan Night Fury.

Omg That's Amazing,Good Work!

About the bewilderbeast age, in the shows it says that HE (keep he in mind) is an egg, and the queen of dragons is nearby and at the very end of race to the edge it quotes along this lines “we gave the egg to the wing maidens ( is that what their called?) who know someone who knows a safe place for the egg” and it shows Valka with her mask taking the egg away, so that’s possible that the king of dragons is not to old

Tootle: *speed sound* Video: *n i g h t f u r i e s*

'increased amount of facial nubs, larger wings and tail, as well as his overall more muscular build are all indicators of age' also httyd3 toothless: tiny fairy wings

Just curious guys, do you remember Power Rangers: Dino Thunder?

I never knew you were sooooo good at drawing and colouring silver, I love it!

I have an awesome idea for a story, what if the hidden world was in the Bermuda triangle and a certain black dragon with green eyes has been shooting down planes and boats that come to close to the hidden world. One day a 20-year-old boy survives and stumbles upon toothless who is now in his 900 and all the other types of Furies that him and the light fury have had.

WOW good job, I liked the video. Keep it up!

It’s really nice to see you back silver! Hope you stay safe!

Valka met this bewilderbeast at the end of how to train your dragon race to the edge

It's sooo good to see that you're back Silver!

Sooo coooll I love it you should do this with he other dragons when you have time we all love and miss you?

Omg this is amazing and I hope ur doing okay through these tough times wish u all the best x💖

Wow silver - these are amazing!!! Well done!!! 👀♥️

Nice video Silver, also the drawing is amazing :3

I saw just browsing my suggested stuff and I found this, you're an amazing artist.

I miss you so much silver and so interested! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

YAY!!! your back I was soooooooooooooooooooo happy when I saw this glad your back

I hope your doing well im in quarantine and your videos make me smile

Glad you're back

I don’t know if you guys know this but the shrieking sound effect of the night fury diving down is based off of the luftwaffe or spitfire fighter planes diving around the beaches and shooting at the ground troops in ww2. Just thought you guys might want to know.

I know I'm late but I have to say that you did an amazing job! Well done! I don't know much about dragons but I love them!

No one: Literally no one: Me:Gramp tooth

Cool that you are back ! I hope you are allright ! Much love !

You're back!!

The bewilder beast is only a young because in RTTE we see that the wing maidens leaving the king of dragons egg for valka to take

Love your channel and your art it's so beautiful. 💗

I loved how you actually showing how you made it your drawing is so good or would you call it art either way looks really really good🥰

Valka’s bewilderbeast is younger than hiccup because in the end of the series when hiccup is about 17 or 18 valka steals the egg!

Finally you posted can you post every week pls I love your vids and I ask if you can do a nother vid raising ones pls

The Bewilder Beast was around 2 years old. Beacuse, in Race to the Edge, we saw those women with razorwhip babies (I forgot their name ;-;) giving the bewilderbeast egg to Valka. At that time, Hiccup was around 18, 2 years later he meets his mother. What I don't like about the movies is te fact that they don't make any connection to the series. I expected to se Mala, Dagur or at least Heather in HTTYD the hidden world. Or AT LEAST in the homecoming. But no, we didn't. I miss Mala, Dagur, Heather, The Skrill, The Flightmare, the razorwhip women (yes this is how I call them) Torch and the rest of 'em. I wanted some refernces to the tv series too. And, I don't say it wasn't cute, it was awsome, buuut....The Homecoming was something like, to get rid of us. We didn't see Valka or Eret, it was very short and more like, nothing special. I'm sorry, I know most of you wom't agree, but it's true...

Wow this video is pretty incredible😍

Nice video !

I am so happy that you are back

Nice, I love your work at Drawing Toothless.

I DIDN’T KNOW YOU DREW SO GOOD😦

Yay!Silver is back and better than ever

I love how you made him look

Dang, that's good! I really enjoy how you can see the age on Toothless in the face, but it's still incredibly recognizable! Those large back spikes are also something very impressive. It adds a bit to the character, and makes him look much tougher, and even a bit more majestic. He just has that look of wisdom, y'know?

Lol I love the dramatic intro!

Yess! Your back ❤️

You finally came back

great toothless vids keep making more!!

Welcome back!! ♥️♥️♥️

What amazing detail... Silver you're insane! In a good way lol

Beautifully well done

Its great to see you back silver! I hope you're doing ok ❤

Holy moly youre talented at drawing, wow

I’m getting all these how to train your dragon recommendations because I saw toothless have an existential crisis over kilograms

Love your channel name

One thing I realized is that, if you take the tv shows into consideration, Hiccup and Toothless are already war veterans by the time of the second movie. I remember when the second movie came out and I hadn't seen it yet, we went to McDonald's one day and I got a How to Train Your Dragon Happy Meal and there was a picture of Hiccup and Toothless on the box and I noticed that he had a bunch of very subtle scratches or scars on his body and I think it's kinda cool how the movie established that he and Hiccup had seen plenty of action since the lastovie before that story was even told

It feels like the older a dragon gets the more they trade their physique for sheer fire power

This is so awesome and accurate!! If he was older he would look like this for sure!!

I am amazed at your art skills 😉😁

It's not talking about how good Silver's art is??? I love your channel Silver and your art is amazing!!!

It's good to see you coming back again, I hope you and your family are doing ok ❤

Nice drawing. Well done.

Also, love how you gave his mechanical tail wear and tear!

Do u ever wonder in School of dragons if the light fury has a TITAN WING, Silver?

i just LOVE the art in the end

AMAZING!!!

im a big fan you make the best vids

Silver your back I hope your family is good now I am very happy yaaaay 😊😊

I’ve been watching how to train your Dragon two over five years and this is how he looks like Cool when he’s 1000 years old

you draw so welll

Valka once said that Toothless is the same age as Hiccup, this should be taken into account.

Toothless had thousands of years to grow to immense size, extra nubs, huge claws, but he still can't grow that ONE GODDAMN TAIL FIN

For homecoming I think someone said “It’s been ten years since the dragons” I forgot the last bit
