Fandom involvement
Everest has shown interest in animal characters after finding out about Warriors book in 2013. He then showed interest in anthropomorphic characters in 2014 and has been involved in the furry community online via Amino and Instagram since 2017.
In mid-2018, he started drawing furries, which he frequently draws with tactical elements and casual stuff. He also created his first fursona, named Quartz (later renamed Everest), and with the help of an online friend in creating his other fursona, Blue, that plays a main role in his social activity as well as his YouTube channel icon.
During mid-2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic worsened, Everest decided to try and create a Twitter account to start his social and art career, other than just being active on Discord. Lots of art style changes occurred in just a year alone and he opened several art commissions.[3]
He still makes content to this day and is actively creating artwork and animatics.
Fursonas
Everest has created several fursonas of his own, with the main two being Snezhnov Everest Lushenko (or just Everest), a Siberian Husky/Eurasian wolf hybrid, and Blue Helvetical, a Protogen. He had claimed that both of his fursonas had undergone several changes throughout the years. He describes 'Everest' the wolf-husky as friendly, determined, trustworthy, and sharp, despite being overall cold and a loner, much to fit his own personality traits.
His most previously created character is a male grey and white tabby cat character named Ross, whose designs are based on a house cat of the same name he once had, made as a memory of its 9-year anniversary. Ross has 2 feather earpieces on one of his ears which are based on the feather of a Malaysian Blue Flycatcher, other than a mixed swirl-stripe pattern on his body and a unique eye-like dot on his head. Ross also has a blue-colored eye instead of a green color, which Everest explains is because the tabby is very playful during its first 3 months of age (where kitten eyes are still baby blue) and it suits his grey-white fur. Ross is often confused with a Warriors character named Jayfeather. Everest stated that he draws Ross as a feral instead of anthro because he never had a full non-anthro character before.
Social media
Everest joined YouTube on September 10, 2017, and has about 950+ subscribers under the channel name BlueHelvetical, while his Twitter account currently has 4.1k+ followers as of August 10, 2023.
