Homer is pretty awesome.

He can paint, sculpt, and illuminate, and his stuff is distinctive. Beauneveu for me. Homer can't compete with that.

I really like both but I will swing Homer.

And Homer it is, 11 votes to 3. The man who beat Hans Holbein will now try his luck against the man who beat the other man who beat Hans Holbein. This whole bracket is built on the ruins of Hans Holbein.
