Hey y'all,

So,  Strife3025 offered up trades, and I asked him for an illo of my Transformers OC, Gundog. He's had a part in  -blackout- 's series of TF stories (which are awesome, go read).

It came out awesome, the original is here: http://www.furaffinity.net/full/7900653/

Vehicle Form: Bell UH-1D ‘Huey Hog’ gunship

Appearance/Color/s:

Vehicle Form:
Grey, green and black ‘tigerstripe’ camo, ‘sharks teeth’ on nose, dark blue horizontal stabilizers. Yellow rotor-tips. Has a weathered appearance, as though an old, beat-up craft. Words ‘Gundog’ in block military script on pilot’s and co-pilot’s doors.
No hold doors.
Standard jumpseats over ammo stowage.

Transformed Form:
Bipedal, rotors fold onto back, tailboom form legs.
Nose forms chest, ‘sharks teeth’ in full view.
Rocket pods are mounted above the shoulders, while miniguns are forearm mounted.
Door-guns form long double-barrel pistol, carried over the right shoulder.

Armament:

Melee Weapons:
2X cable-cutters, form dual-bladed knife.

Alignment:

Chaotic Good/Unprincipled Good Mercenary/Autobot

Function: Shooter/Assault - Heavy Weapons

Qoute: “Gundog, rollin’ in hot!”

Behavioral Characteristics/Attitude:

Gruff, good natured but slow to trust, partially sardonic/sarcastic sense of humor.
Music fan, has rock/alternative/electronica/alt-country/video-game/movie/anime OSTs playing constantly, even during battles.
Known to spout lines from music/movies/games and other forms of media, to make points, joke, or taunt enemies
Can and will pick up enemy equipment to trade/sell, or keep.
Known for using dropped enemy weapons when available.

Combat Tactics:

The light, high rate of fire miniguns aren’t very powerful, but fire several thousand shots per minute, like their cartridge-based look-alikes. Gundog uses them to whittle away at an opponent, using the heavier blasters only when the chances of a hit are good.
For snapshots, and covering fire, he will sometimes use the double door-gun handheld weapon.
Rarely engages in CQB if he can avoid it, preferring to use his firepower over anything else.

Specialties:

Strafing, close-air support, has winch for light/medium carry jobs. Hold has seating for 6 humans, can carry up to 10, or cargo.

Is capable of air-to-air combat, but doesn’t have the agility or guided weaponry for prolonged engagements, or battles against high-performance air-types.

His twin rocket pods can discharge all barrels at once, in a devastating ‘shotgun blast’, but requires major recharge/cool-down time, (10+ minutes) before they can be used again, even in single shot mode. Usually used as a ‘finisher’, on damaged enemies in one-on-one confrontations, or as a heavy hit on multiple close together targets, or to cover an escape.
