I need a Senior Adobe Illustrator Production Artist / Vector Artwork Restoration Specialist to complete two substantially developed family memorial artworks: 1. Grech Family Coat of Arms 2. Historical King George VI Royal Engineers badge This is NOT a logo design project and I am NOT requesting a redesign from scratch. Existing artwork, Adobe Illustrator files and detailed historical reference photographs will be supplied. The work primarily involves careful refinement, correction and selective reconstruction only where genuinely necessary. The final style must remain prestigious, historically significant, richly coloured and heraldic, with realistic 3D depth and premium metallic gold and silver rendering where historically appropriate. Colours must remain faithful to the supplied references. I do NOT want flat, pale, cartoon-like, simplified or generic logo-style artwork. The successful freelancer must: • Be highly experienced with Adobe Illustrator and complex vector artwork • Be comfortable editing existing artwork rather than automatically redrawing everything • Accurately restore historical insignia from genuine photographic references • Preserve rich 3D metallic depth and vivid colours • Follow precise instructions without imposing a completely different artistic style • Personally speak and write fluent English and understand detailed English briefs accurately • Inspect the existing AI files before quoting and explain what can be retained, what genuinely needs adjustment/reconstruction, and why Please do not apply if your normal workflow is to completely redesign existing artwork in your own style. This is a refinement and restoration project, not a new concept-development project. The complete Adobe Illustrator/source files exceed the platform’s initial attachment limit and will be supplied directly to shortlisted candidates for technical inspection before any final quotation is accepted. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Please review before bidding: - Fluent English: Freelancer must personally communicate in fluent English without relying on AI, translation tools, or another person. - No generative AI: Artwork must be created/refined using Adobe Illustrator and conventional design tools only. - Refinement, not redesign: Existing composition, symbolism, colours, and design foundation must be preserved. - Selective reconstruction: Rebuild individual elements only when technically or historically necessary, not the entire artwork. - Reference materials: Historical photographs and accurate reference images will be provided to support tracing, comparison, and restoration. - Nearly completed project: Most of the work is already done; remaining tasks are mainly corrections, refinements, and finishing touches. - Fixed budget: The A$100–150 budget reflects the limited remaining scope and is considered reasonable for the work required. - Heraldic artwork: The Grech Family Coat of Arms is commemorative and historically/militarily significant, requiring a prestigious, vivid, realistic, dimensional finish, especially for gold and silver elements. - Specialist preferred: The client wants a small shortlist of highly suitable specialists rather than many general graphic designers.

Please message me before shortlisting — I’d like to inspect the existing AI artwork first and tell you exactly what should be retained, refined, or selectively reconstructed. Hi, Your project immediately caught my attention because this is exactly the kind of work where precision, restraint and respect for the original artwork matter more than simply creating a new design. For the Grech Family Coat of Arms and King George VI Royal Engineers badge, I will: • Work directly from your existing AI files • Preserve the original composition, symbolism and colour direction • Restore historical elements accurately from your supplied references • Reconstruct only elements that genuinely require it • Maintain rich dimensional depth rather than a flat/logo appearance • Carefully refine gold, silver, heraldic details and vivid colours • Follow your existing artistic direction instead of imposing my own style • Deliver clean, professionally organised Illustrator source artwork I will not unnecessarily redraw or redesign completed work. My first step would be to technically inspect the AI files and references, identify what can be retained and explain precisely what needs adjustment. If you’re looking for someone who treats this as precision artwork restoration rather than a generic logo project, please send me the files and references in chat. I’d be happy to review them before you make the final selection. Best regards, Gourav

Heraldic badges have a way of telling stories through intricate detail, and refining them into clean vectors can be surprisingly rewarding. I have spent several years mastering Adobe Illustrator for high‑detail illustration and badge restoration, handling historic emblems and complex line work for branding and publishing projects. Definitely something I can help with. You can see client feedback on my profile confirming reliability and quality. I’ll keep communication open and iterate until the artwork matches the heritage you’re aiming for. Could you let me know how many badges need restoration and whether you have high‑resolution scans or any specific colour palettes in mind?
