Do I think that going straight to legal threats and demanding a $1000 dollars in damages is a bit severe? Yes, I do. It's defintely not how I would have handled it. But the fact of the matter is that Rob is in the wrong here. Even if $1000 is excessive, attempting to fight it legally would cost as much if not more (which is probably what the lawyer is banking on). I wasn't suggesting that Rob just pay the grand and take it as a learning lesson. I agree with your intent, but I don't agree with your method, namely trying to make the guy feel bad for shooting first and asking questions later. It may be a bit harsh, but he is within his rights to pursue legal action. Rob: you did this work for a company, right? Talk to their legal team and see how justified this guy is for asking for a grand in damages. And I'll say it again: see if you talk to the artist directly, not through his lawyer. He might be more willing to let you off the hook if you go to him directly. And I would agree that using other peoples' work even in mockups is probably not the best idea.
