In short
- Submitting the form composes an enquiry and does not reserve a slot.
- Jonathan checks whether the car and reference set are drawable before accepting the work.
- The rough, finished drawing and post-approval dispatch are separate stages; dispatch is not delivery.
The request form is not a queue button. I need to see whether the photographs establish the car before I can accept it. After that, the rough, finished drawing, approval and print dispatch each do a different job.
What happens after you request a custom car drawing?
Jonathan checks the reference set and scope first. If he accepts the work, the process moves through a rough, detailed drawing, approval and then print dispatch when a physical format is ordered.
What does Jonathan check in the request?
He checks that the body, viewpoint, wheels, registration and changed parts can be established from the photographs. An archive drawing may help, but it does not automatically fit another owner’s car.
Use the reference-photo checklist before sending the form.
What should you check on the rough drawing?
Check proportion, stance, angle and the position of large visible parts. The rough is the sensible place to correct structure before detailed edges and shading are built.
The current rough window is imported from the same terms as the custom request page.
What happens during the finished drawing stage?
Jonathan builds the confirmed car into detailed layered artwork and returns the finished drawing within the published window. Unknown details still require evidence rather than invention.
| Stage | Question |
|---|---|
| Request | Is the car drawable from this evidence? |
| Rough | Are shape, stance and angle right? |
| Finished drawing | Are the confirmed details represented? |
| Approval | Is the artwork ready for the chosen format? |
What happens after the drawing is approved?
If a physical print is ordered, the approved commissioned print enters its dispatch window. Dispatch is the handover to a courier and does not promise the parcel’s arrival date.
The full timing guide keeps drawing, approval and courier travel separate.
Questions people actually ask
- Does sending a custom request book the drawing?
- No. The form composes an enquiry. Jonathan checks the car, photographs and scope before deciding whether he can take the work on, so submitting it does not reserve capacity.
- When will I see the rough car drawing?
- The current custom terms put the rough within 2 to 3 days after the work is accepted. This is the stage for correcting proportion, stance and angle before detailed drawing work continues.
- How long does the finished custom drawing take?
- The current terms put the finished drawing within 7 to 10 days. That is the drawing stage, not delivery of a physical print, and it follows the accepted request and rough.
- What happens after I approve the custom drawing?
- An approved commissioned print is dispatched within 5 to 7 working days. Dispatch means handover to a courier. The courier’s travel time follows and is not an arrival date promised by the site.
