Meta Knight gijinka Age Progression

I had an art style overhaul recently and needed to make sure I could draw different ages in it, so here's an age progression of my gijinka Meta Knight! Consider it also like a visual timeline -- depending on how young he looks in the art, you can probably tell what part of the story's timeline it takes place.

Now it's no longer a secret that he was an adorable child who aged very well. And that he's only grown a head taller since age 10.

At age 10, he's a curious kid who fell into the Army's hands, with an ambiguous past and no idea of what to do with being a Star Warrior. At age 18, he's a more-than-competent, monster-slaying badass. At 25, he's a Knight, a wielder of Galaxia, and one of the universe's most formidable warriors.

I drew another one for Jecra, too, but I'll post that as soon as I figure out what he looks like as a rebellious 17-year-old.
