Rails ('4.1.5') I had a similar issue of images not showing on Heroku but showing up locally. I am not using paperclip or carrierwave gems, I precompile locally and also using RAILS_ENV=production I push to github and it deploys fine to Heroku.

I solved the issue by having:

config.serve_static_assets = true
config.assets.compile = true
config.assets.js_compressor = :uglifier
config.assets.digest = true

// delete precompiled assets
bundle exec rake assets:clobber --trace
RAIL_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:clobber --trace

copied images to public/assets from app/assets. then:

// tests should pass
bundle exec rake assets:precompile --trace
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile --trace

git commit
git push

And it was running fine on Heroku.
