Transformers and all related characters are the property of Hasbro.

This was done because I was thinking of the possibility of a more traditional-looking version of Kup.

Some of it was inspired by thinking of another VA for him. Some of it was wonder if my original version was a little out there. Anyway, getting the the former, I had thought that R. Lee Ermey for Kup, which kinda suits Kup and I'm not the only one who thought he'd work as there's a pic on this site where the artist said they thought Ermey would work, too.

Anyway, on the commentray of the episode, Mission Accomplished, one of the crew members of the show compared how Ironhide's voice in his brief appearance sounded to Eremy and that kinda scared me off the idea. After listening to it, though, it may be similar, but it didn't sound like him, so I let the fear go.

As a result, I went in and tweaked a few things--made his left hand normal, made both optics normal, and a removed a little of the wear and tear I'd put on him. I kept the scar on his face, but flipped it to emulate the glimpses of Terminator's John Connor in the War aganist Skynet prior to Terminator Salvation, but otherwise, I tried to make him a little more like the G1 Kup.

He's still scowling, but then Kup was always a grouch.XD

Hope you guys like it.
