Till are one. As was humbly said by Optimus in the end of Predacons Rising movie as the conclusion of the Prime series "Do not lament my absence. For in my spark, I know that this is not the end. But merely a new beginning. Simply put, another transformation."

Thank you. It was made a while ago before I heard about Peter's ending but I've had the line in my head for years and really tried to draw the genuine masculine hero Peter wanted to exude. So yes. In it way it a tribute.

Ya know, looking at this art piece I can definitely see a post war Optimus retiring in a cozy farm house, idling the day away and enjoying the tranquility he fought for. It just fits his character to a P. Peter Cullen will be missed, here's hoping people continue to strive for what he believed in.

My whole life I drew big robots fighting. Lately I have found my way as an artist and draw my characters more how I'd like: Thriving and at peace. May we one day all find it. I just know Peter has.
