You're in no way protected by copyright "fair use", and are guilty of the exact same thing as you're accusing him of... except that you believe what you're doing is ok because you're stealing from giant companies rather than another individual. Even saying "if they contacted me, I'd take it down" doesn't count for anything because you're already making money off of your designs.
So really, you're pissed at him for stealing what you've already stolen.
And "fair use" does not work for "artistic expression", only for "commentary, parody, news reporting, research and education" and that's it. Also as has been pointed out, doing it for free (which isn't what you're doing anyway, you are making money from them) doesn't exempt you from violating copyright.
