  I spoke to Massimo when I got my duster coat and they said it’s to do with copyright issues with Tom Ford because they were branding the items as James Bond clothing tie ins. Apparently they aren’t allowed to do this... you’ll notice the heads have been cut off the images on the site now for this same reason. Very strange!

  hey all, did a little detective work and found the artist that did the water colors for Massimo Alba. I contacted him and he was super nice and said he would do framed prints or send High res digitals. here is his site for anyone that's interested .

  Amazing. Is he charging something for the digital version? The "store" doesn't seem list any of the Bond stuff.

  I recently picked up a Sloop suit and came across this thread while researching. I'd very much like to pick up a copy (print or digital) of some of those watercolors. I'm happy to pay for them, of course, but when I emailed Andreas to ask about them, he said they are available on his gallery store (yet, like km1fdm said above, I can't seem to find the Bond ones on the store). I've responded back asking him for a link, but I think things might be getting lost in translation. Has anyone else been able to find them to order online?

  I couldn’t find any in his shop either, you got further than me though as he didn’t even respond to my emails, 3 of them.
