Advanced Vector Conversion of Fiber-Textured Logo

Title: Exact Vector Recreation of Complex Fiber‑Textured Logo (No Reinterpretation)

I am looking for a highly skilled vector illustrator (NOT an auto‑tracer) to manually recreate my original logo as a pixel‑perfect, detail‑accurate vector. This is NOT a redesign or reinterpretation. It must match the original PNG exactly, including micro‑details.

If you are only familiar with simple logos or auto‑trace tools, please do NOT apply.

------------------------------------------------------------
PROJECT OVERVIEW
------------------------------------------------------------
The artwork features:
• Hair‑like micro‑fibers with tapered strands
• Overlapping red and blue glowing fiber clusters
• Smooth glow falloff (blue and red transitions)
• Subtle debris particles and fragments
• A fractured outer square frame
• Organic, hand‑drawn‑style strand curvature
• A second version with a cracked, atmospheric background

This requires:
• Manual Pen Tool tracing (100% manual)
• Custom tapered strokes
• Masking and layering
• Gradient or transparency control for glow falloff
• Clean Illustrator group structure
• The ability to replicate complex textures without simplification

------------------------------------------------------------
DELIVERABLES
------------------------------------------------------------

VERSION A — PURE VECTOR (NO BACKGROUND)
Must include:
• Red fiber structure
• Blue fiber structure
• Outer fractured frame
• Debris particles
• Glow/falloff

Must NOT include:
• Black background
• Raster shadows
• Background cracks

Files required:
• SVG
• EPS
• AI or vector PDF
• PNG (4096×4096) transparent
• PNG (8192×8192) transparent

Layer groups required:
• Group 01 — Blue fibers
• Group 02 — Red fibers
• Group 03 — Outer frame
• Group 04 — Debris
• Group 05 — Glow/falloff

VERSION B — VECTOR + BACKGROUND TEXTURES
Background contains:
• Cracks and fractures
• Dark void textures
• Subtle atmospheric gradients
• Debris field

Foreground must remain vector; background may use masked high‑res texture.

Files required:
• PDF (vector + masked textures)
• PNG (4096×4096, black background)
• PNG (8192×8192, black background)
• Optional layered PSD or TIF

------------------------------------------------------------
MANDATORY PAID TEST (BEFORE FULL PROJECT)
------------------------------------------------------------
A 500×500 pixel crop will be provided.

You must:
• Recreate fibers, glow, and debris EXACTLY
• Deliver as SVG
• Use 100% manual vector work
• Include grouped layers
• Match colors and angles precisely

This ensures the full project is awarded based on proven capability.

------------------------------------------------------------
BUDGET AND MILESTONES
------------------------------------------------------------
Total budget: $120–$150 USD (depending on accuracy and detail)

Milestones:
• $30 — Paid crop test (mandatory)
• $70 — Version A (pure vector)
• $20–$50 — Version B (vector + background textures)

------------------------------------------------------------
NDA REQUIRED
------------------------------------------------------------
You must sign a short NDA before receiving the full artwork.

------------------------------------------------------------
WHO SHOULD APPLY
------------------------------------------------------------
Ideal candidates will:
• Be experts in Adobe Illustrator
• Have portfolio examples of complex raster‑to‑vector recreation
• Understand tapered strokes, custom brushes, masks, and gradients
• Be able to match artwork EXACTLY
• Communicate clearly and deliver on time

If your portfolio only shows simple logos, this job is not a match.

------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO APPLY
------------------------------------------------------------
Please include:
1. Before/after examples of complex raster‑to‑vector work
2. A short explanation of how you will recreate fibers and glow
3. Confirmation you agree to the NDA
4. Confirmation you can complete the paid crop test
5. Your availability for the 48‑hour first draft

Thank you — looking forward to working with someone who can take this on with precision and care.
