Create 3D-Printable Heraldic Family Crest from Supplied 2D Artwork I am looking for an experienced 3D modeller who understands FDM 3D printing to convert my supplied 2D heraldic coat-of-arms artwork into a professionally modelled 3D relief. The finished model must be supplied as a 3MF file ready for printing on my SPARKX i7 3D printer. This is a new clean build from the supplied 2D artwork, rather than an attempt to repair an existing STL. Finished Size The completed design should be approximately: 130 mm wide × 180 mm high It should have an oval backing suitable for displaying the complete coat of arms as a wall plaque/display piece. The model should be designed specifically for practical FDM printing, with sensible relief depths and minimal problematic overhangs. Reproduce the Supplied Artwork Faithfully The 3D model must closely reproduce the supplied 2D coat of arms, including: - Shield - Three cranes - Helmet - Wings/crest above the helmet - Crown and other heraldic details shown in the artwork - Decorative mantling/flourishes - Existing proportions and positioning of the elements Please do not reinterpret or redesign the heraldry. The objective is to turn the supplied artwork into an attractive 3D relief while remaining faithful to the original design. Main Ribbon — VAN BLERK Immediately beneath the shield there must be a heraldic ribbon containing: Van Blerk Requirements: - Gothic / Blackletter / Old English-style font - Text must be curved to follow the ribbon - Text centred and properly contained within the ribbon - Raised/embossed lettering - Large enough to print cleanly - The ribbon should integrate naturally with the coat of arms Smaller Lower Ribbon — VERMASEN Below the main coat of arms there must be a separate, considerably smaller ribbon containing: Vermasen This is a secondary ancestral-family reference and should therefore be visually understated compared with Van Blerk. Requirements: - Small, elegant heraldic ribbon - Vermasen centred within it - Raised/embossed printable lettering - Positioned below the main crest - It must not compete visually with the main Van Blerk ribbon 3D Modelling / Printing Requirements This is intended for FDM printing on a SPARKX i7. The designer should therefore create the relief specifically with 3D printing in mind. The final model must: - Be manifold/watertight - Have no overlapping or duplicate geometry - Have sensible relief depths - Have sufficiently substantial fine details for FDM printing - Have lettering that will reproduce cleanly - Avoid unnecessarily severe overhangs - Have a flat rear surface for printing - Slice cleanly - Be correctly scaled to approximately 130 × 180 mm - Be supplied in the correct orientation for printing Where extremely fine details in the original artwork would not print reliably, they may be slightly strengthened or simplified for printability, but the visual appearance of the coat of arms must remain faithful to the supplied artwork. Multi-Colour / 3MF Setup I specifically want the final deliverable prepared as a 3MF project, not merely an STL. Where practical, please construct the model so that the major visual elements can be assigned separate colours/materials in the slicer. The traditional colour scheme is primarily: Red and white/silver Please discuss with me how you propose separating the colour regions before finalising the model. Approval Stages I would like the work approved in stages: Stage 1: 3D model/relief without final export Stage 2: Close-up approval of the Van Blerk and Vermasen ribbons Stage 3: Final 3MF prepared for printing Please provide screenshots/renders for approval before final delivery. Required Deliverables I require: 1. Final ".3mf" file, correctly scaled and ready to slice/print. 2. Editable source model — Blender ".blend", STEP, Fusion 360 file or equivalent. 3. STL export as a backup. 4. High-resolution render of the completed model. 5. Screenshot of the final model in slicing software confirming that it slices correctly. When Applying Please tell me: - What 3D modelling software you use. - What slicer you will use to test the final 3MF. - Your experience creating models from 2D artwork. - Your experience designing reliefs specifically for FDM printing. - Whether you can provide a properly structured multi-colour 3MF. - Your fixed price. - Expected turnaround time. Please include examples of previous work involving heraldry, crests, plaques, reliefs, medals, coins, logos converted to 3D, embossed lettering or similar FDM projects. Please only apply if you are comfortable building this cleanly from the supplied 2D artwork rather than using automatic image-to-STL conversion.

Your brief is exactly the kind of project where clean modelling and FDM printability must work together. I understand you want a faithful 3D reconstruction from the supplied artwork—not an automatic image-to-STL conversion. I can build the complete heraldic relief at approximately 130 × 180 mm, with the oval backing, shield, cranes, helmet, wings, crown, mantling and all other elements carefully recreated. I’ll specifically ensure: Proper manifold/watertight geometry Flat printable rear surface Practical relief depths and FDM-friendly details Clean, readable raised “Van Blerk” blackletter ribbon Smaller, understated “Vermasen” ribbon Accurate proportions and positioning Red + white/silver colour separation where practical Correctly scaled 3MF + STL exports Editable source model Slicer verification and final render I can work through your requested approval stages so you can review the relief and both ribbons before the final 3MF export. My CAD/3D modelling background allows me to approach this as a manufacturable printable model, rather than simply converting 2D artwork into geometry. Send the artwork and I can review its complexity, confirm the best modelling approach, and provide a fixed price and turnaround. Best regards, Sumit Kumar
