Vintage Boat Family Portrait Print

I have a vision for a striking black-and-white print that features a classic, vintage motorboat cutting through the water with six passengers on board. Each passenger should carry the moderately detailed likeness of one of my family members—recognisable without going into photorealistic pores and wrinkles, but definitely more refined than a quick sketch.

The overall illustration needs to stay firmly in the realistic style: accurate boat proportions, believable water movement, natural body poses, and clothing that feels era-appropriate. Please keep the entire composition monochrome; I want strong contrasts and rich mid-tones rather than flat greys.

Final size should be 36 × 48 inches, large enough for prominent wall display. I’ll handle printing locally, so what I need from you is:

• A high-resolution, print-ready PDF or TIFF at 300 dpi (CMYK).
• The layered working file (PSD, AI, or Procreate) so future tweaks are possible.
• A web-friendly JPEG for quick sharing with the family.

Before we get to final delivery, I’d like a low-res proof to confirm facial resemblance, boat details, and overall balance. Two rounds of minor revisions after the proof should be included so we can fine-tune expressions or shading.

If you’re comfortable blending reference photos into a cohesive, vintage-looking scene and can manage clean, realistic linework in black and white, this project should be straightforward. I’ll supply the six head-shots and a couple of reference images for the boat as soon as we start.

Let me know your expected turnaround and which software you prefer to work in—Photoshop, Illustrator, or another tool with layered support is fine by me.
