Sorry, but I don't think you got either. (But then I could be wrong)
Homer Simpson is bald except for (exactly) 3 hairs in a comb-over and
some zig-zag fringe.
His HEAD, and the rest of all the caucasion characters' skin-tone on
the show is yellow - it's been a running gag on the series since it's
inception.
The relevance is, if I'm going to use licensed characters, I'd prefer
to use as close to the original artists' conceptions as possible.
It's tribute to whatever characters I use rather than parody,
statement, or individualism. One might choose to make Disney's 7
dwarves rainbow colors as a socio-political statement, but if one just
wants the characters to be taken at face value, or for memory/
sentimental purposes, one may likely want to color them as close as
depicted in Snow White as one could. That's all.

Thanks, Doc. I'm with Jeanne; sort of got lost in that one too. Polly
