I hope they get it right because the new portrait sucks so bad.
I hope they leave the matte paint too.
The original prototype was a masterpiece.

Let's just say you will be happy with what you will soon see. No worries!

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

Hm, creative differences. I guess time will tell as we see what XM creates without Erick working as Art Director.

Knowing how demanding XM is for perfection, I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say XM pushed Eric to make a lot of changes based on feedback of work. Eric probably feeling his work shouldn't be dictated and altered by everyone with an opinion, probably said enough is enough.
I remember the behind the scenes video done on XM and seeing one of the brothers yelling at the painters at the factory about something lol. To achieve greatness you sometimes need to be an assh*%L. The most successful people in any industry have those reputations, Steven spielberg, James Cameron, Donald Trump..ect.
I'm not trying to cast any negativity on XM as this is pure speculation. However that usually seems to be the reoccurring case with most artists. I think Jerry at PCS just had the same issue with John Cleary and they also parted ways.
That's business.

Not the case according to JC. Father had health issues and he needed to focus more energies on that. I don't want to derail the thread but I just thought that should be cleared up.

Might have been part of the reason. But Jerry did make a post on FB saying how annoyed and upset he was with artists that couldn't do work right the first time and that he had to spend his time fixing the majority of what was submitted, while the artist he's paying took all the credit publicly. A few days after that post John posted that he left PCS.
Don't think that was a coincidence.

Yes but still conjecture. It could have been other artists he was referring to.
I'm not saying you are wrong...but assuming it was JC may not be accurate.
