You have a week to choose your winner. Once again gentlemen take your places and may the best painter win. Please leave comments after the duel has finished
What a duel this was, really fun to watch. And with 14-14 both are winners. This duel was between mr.X and Sho. So both congratulations on this fantastic result. Thanks for all the voters, I hope you will vote again next time!
