Hieronymus Bosch was some whackjob who painted people having trumpets being shoved up their asses and stuff (apparently symbolizing sin and moral failings).

Yeah, that's why in Steadfast there's Admiral van Eyck...it also was a painter. We wanted a pseudo-canonish name for a rebel CO :)

There are much better painting by Hyeronimus Bosch van Aken....like the one we call Trittico delle Delizie.

We use a "name convention" for rebel leaders. "Fiaminghi" painters. :P
