A couple months ago I contacted a jacket painter based on the examples of his work on his website, to paint a copy of one of Jerome's jackets. His jacket artwork looked really good. I emailed him with the photos from Jerome's website and asked if he could copy it. He assured me he could copy the artwork and incorporate the changes I requested.
I had a dark seal colored ELC jacket that I thought would make a great canvas for the paint and sent it to him.
Recently he e-mailed me and a few of his other customers, (, I don't know if he hit Send All by mistake), pics of a jacket he was completing.
I'm guessing the A-2 in the pics was not one of the top tier A-2's, it had a three piece back. I'm not sure if the customer sent the artwork he wanted and the artist just copied it exactly. The bottom line is the artwork in the pics was pretty basic...not even close to a Jerome paint job.
I'm a little worried now because of the price of the ELC. If it was one of my usual 'painters' (under $ 125 ), I wouldn't care as much.
I'm thinking I should cut my losses and send him return shipping and just have him mail my ELC back since he doesn't seem to have begun the paintjob yet.
