SPOILER ALERT: Gravestone for Sentinel Prime in Chicago, Transformers 3, TF3 movie

            The great Sentinel Prime, the prime before Optimus Prime was killed by Megatron on the LaSalle Street Bridge in Chicago. 

I made gravestone in honor of Sentinel Prime's death and placed it where he died--on the south side of the bridge. Most people pass by this gravestone and notice Megatron's further north on the bridge. I have plans on placing a Starscream tombstone in the loop. 

Sentinel Prime's tombstone needed a stoic look to match his character. I went with a very upright serif font for his name (as opposed to the gothic look for Megatron). Even the tombston has a sort of upright looking feel to it. For most of his life, that's who Sentinel Prime was. 

But then the question came of do I put an Aubotot or Decepticon insignia on the tombstone. He did turn to the Decepticon side. But he didn't claim allegiance to them. He didn't even really claim to be on the Autobots side, simply the side of Cybertron. But since this is a tombstone to the life of Sentinel Prime, I had to put an Aubot insignia on it. But since he turned on the Autobots, his Autobot insignia is turned upside-down.
