I have a pencil sketch/ logo that the builder wants convert to vector art but not lose that "penciled look".

It looks like an architechs rendering but I'm told by 24HourArtwork.com that if they attempt to vectorize this pencil art, it will lose that "look".

Has anyone know of someone who can convert pencil art to vectot art?

Thanks,
Russ

Royce, he did a "before & after" combination jpg at no charge so I could show my customer. See attached.

Brian's a good guy, does excellent work, and his prices are very reasonable.

Russ, if you change the color to a gray instead of black, it would soften it a bit more and will give it more of that pencil look.

Luis, you are correct but first it must be B&W. Eventually when we choose an imprint color it will probably be in the gray family like you suggested.

Thanks,
Russ

It pays to read DT. I think the artist did a superb job at a very reasonable price. I've got a project sitting on my desk that can use his skills.

I was directed to Brian from this forum and have gotten to REALLY appreciate his work. He's quick (24 hours or earlier) and extremely reasonable. Yes you are right, there are many things you'll learn from members of this DT.

Sent an art job to artboy to see if they could do it and the cost involved. Pricing was over the top......like $140. Said it would have to be redrawn by hand.
Sent the job to Nittany in India. They did the job overnight....and although I haven't received the bill yet....the usual charge is about $7.00 per project.
