Mosaic Vector Recreation in Illustrator
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have a two mosaic image that must be rebuilt from scratch in Adobe Illustrator so it can go straight into production. Every tile, line, and colour needs to become clean, scalable vector artwork—no Live Trace shortcuts. The final .ai file should be neatly layered or grouped so any element can be isolated, recoloured, or resized without loss of quality.
This is an AI-made image, so I was thinking we could also just have a bunch of those flowers be custom-made bits of ceramic, same with the butterflies that I’ll end up being slightly
I definitely want there to be a bunch of custom-made elements that become part of this mosaic work.
End use
The artwork will feed directly into production workflows, so accuracy is critical: crisp paths, consistent stroke widths, and dimensions that match the original pixel for pixel.
Colour approach
I would like to work with a specific colour set rather than a literal pixel-by-pixel match. Because I don’t yet have a formal palette, I’ll need your creative suggestions. Please recommend a refined, harmonious scheme (Pantone, CMYK, or RGB) that translates well to both print and digital outputs. Once we agree, apply those colours consistently across the piece.
It will be a cylindrical object, so it must be seamless at the end, and first of all, the important step is to make it seamless.
Deliverables
- Clean mosaic tile, coloured.
- Tile is applied very clean.
- Adobe Illustrator file, and DWG/DXF for the mosaic tile
Acceptance criteria
The vector version must NOT overlay perfectly onto the original when placed at 100 % scale.
Show no stray points, and pass outline-view inspection without artefacts.
Let me know your turnaround time and any clarifying questions, and I’ll send over the reference image so you can get started right away.
