I am not good with Inkscape. I have been given an image by a family member for a simple cut out but don’t have the skill set to get rid of the background and the scarfs on the silhouettes. Also only needs to be a group of 5 6" tall. I would be willing to pay if one of you very talented folks would be willing to help me out. This is not a paying job for me other than material cost. I am swamped with other work and would love it if some one could get this into a DXF or SVG for me. DM me a price before you start so I don’t have more than one person working on it. I definitely don’t want to waste anyones time. Thank you for even reading my post.
Just sitting here eating my lunch and threw a converted version into Fusion 360. Looks like getting 5 good ones out of that would be pretty easy.
The first 4 guys plus number 6 looks doable. If you don’t get any offers in a day or two, let me know and I will help you.

So best way to do this in under 5 mins is use canvas feature in fusion with your image. after that just a matter of scaling it to size. Nothing needed for DXF. GL and post pic of your projects!

Good call @DonP +1
Canvas feature for the win.
@Duhicky Using the bezier curve tool is actually quite a skill to limit the number of nodes. you can use this game to help developing that skill.

Thank you guys! I appreciate your help a ton! I spend all my time in fusion building functional parts and never get much time with the artistic side. Definitely need to get behind some Inkscape tutorials.
@Wsidr1 what conversion program do you use?
@DonP I didn’t even think about the canvas. I assume you just used the spline tool and traced it out?
@TinWhisperer I definitely need to get some practice on that game.
Yes, I just used spline tool. Even when you use Inkscape Trace bitmap you’ll find 95% of the time you’ll need to go fix lines. Many times, I use mirror so things are symmetrical but I didn’t on your people since it seemed like the look you wanted. Fun project and love the little scarfs.

I used Convertio. I think a lot of folks on here use it with good success. You can convert jpegs to svg or dxf to load into CAD programs.
Works pretty well and it’s free.
