Art requests

Story here is short:

I'm not an artist. This forum has artists. I would like to commission (I can't pay monies though) a 300x300px to 500x500px (do whatever you need to do though) a remake of the above coat of arms for use on Wikipedia (really makes you want to make this now, huh?). To avoid confusion from vague instructions, I would ideally like it look like this but with elements of this (namely the helmet. Don't include the bits bearing the name and country, however. Wikipedia's templates will cover that) You will credited with your work, and a link will be provided in following edits to the OP to prove it.
If you're wondering why I didn't just move this to Wikimedia Commons for use on all Wikipedia's different language branches, these were tags that said not to move the picture to Wikimedia Commons without user review. I did not look into this.
EDIT: I also didn't move this coat of arms into Flickr for use on Wikipedia, either I also scrubbed Flickr for the Rotenhan coat of arms and instead found pictures of their ancestral castle (a pile of ruins in northern Bavaria).


To contribute to the thread, here's a Polonia flag I made:

Y'know: I could never quite get past the fact that the eagle on so many coats of arms looks like it got splattered on a windshield... :mystery:

I am not going to pay money I don't have to get a program I'm not going to use. Rather, it would be better to pay an artist (with money I don[WHITEAGLE PROBLEMS]).

There's a 30-day free trial. And if that runs out,

I dunno, but the Eagle feels a bit odd, whit a bi-coloured background. A single coloured background works better for flags, which huge coat of arms in their centre, imo.

Bah, I tried. Maybe a different background than the Polish flag?
