Such a shame it doesn't match what you asked for! Did you send over a colour picture reference to Chris or just request the colour via e-mail? Did you receive a mock-up of what the colour was meant to look like? Personally, I really like the look of what you have been sent but can imagine you're disappointed!
Aside from the colour, how is the quality of the paint job itself? Have you also inspected the frame and bars, are they also okay quality wise?
I only sent a picture of what the frame looks like and told him laser blue color , see my email below.
yeah the color itself not bad , its exactly the same as canyon aeroad but i do disappointed
The quality of the frame its fine actually (will test it soon for climbing) but the bar too much flexy but i think its flexy because it's design of internal cable so i won't use it.
my Deda alanera from aliexpress way more stiffer and doesn't flex like the velobuild , maybe will put it on market place
Thanks for sharing!
A shame about the paint. I am still in discussions with Chris to try to find a mutually agreeable solution (although within rights, there is no way they will send a new frame. But asking me to ship it back at my expense is also not fair)
If the paint is off, for instance, the metallic blue was a little light or darker than expected, I would consider this an acceptable deviation.
In your case, it looks like they used the wrong Pantone code and you ended up with something like Relucent Blue (which has a very similar number)
Up to you how worth it is for you to put up a fight I guess, but at the very least you should get exactly what you ordered in terms of parts, and very close in terms of paint.
I have my own paintshop actually and the cost its' the same as velobuild to paint it but i decided to have Chris painted it because i don't want to do the extra work but somehow it doesn't satisfy me, in my opinion you should take it to your local paint shop instead arguing with Chris, even Chris never respond to my email again, and he assume he already sent the picture of finished frame which he never sent me and just send the frame to me
For sure, this color is not close to laser blue metallic, I'm sorry for you 
I am a little surprised at the weight announced in your spreadsheet, especially for the seatpost and the headset. Did you change something?
I am also interested to know which model of handlebar you will use.
Yeah i think i will be okay, soon gonna paint it maybe early in 2022
Seatpost in uncutted but i remove the clamp and change it to carbon clamp which save 20 gr
