BG, Graphic and HUD Artists for an RPG Project job

We have an immense passion for games and gaming, we always have. Ever since the days Legend of Dragoon and Xenogears I've grown to learn that video games weren't merely digital board games, but way to break out of reality and experience the creativity and dedication creators put into their masterpieces; because every game is a masterpiece in its own way. The Insindious Project is an initiative of mine to create a fun, engaging and lovable game. Like most game projects, this one requires time and dedication, which I have no problem putting in. When creating a game, it shouldn't feel like a chore, right?. We should feel refreshed and accomplished upon completing each task needed to complete the project.

But let me not go on for too long. Insindious is the name of the game, which I'm anticipating on consisting of:
- Plenty of colorful, lovable and respectable characters.
- A deep storyline featuring characters with detailed backstories.
- Deep, lush and vast areas for the player to explore.
- Fun and deeply emotional majesty that can keep the player engaged every single moment.
- A visual and musical experience with art and music from many artists.
- Fast, strategic, flashy and engaging battles so grinding isn't a chore.
- Fresh and bright user interfaces.
- Balanced gameplay, playable characters and enemies.
- An abundance of treasures and side content.
- Robust dialogue and heavy emphasis on character development (I mean, if you're going to go on a journey, you're going to want to enjoy spending time with your team members, correct?).

I have a lot of hopes and plans for Insindious and I'd kneel in gratitude to all those who are willing to put their own soul (don't worry, I'll give it back later) into taking part in our development.

- What's Insindious All About? -

Insindious is my first game project, as I've said above, and I see it as an amazing opportunity for voice actors, programmers, artists and musicians to take take part in a project that would portray their skills to the world. Insindious is going to be set at a low price because I believe that is the best way to present it to as wide an audience as possible. We have, and when I say 'we' I'm talking about me and the few other developers we have, laid out the main themes, story, characters, art style, and map, battle system and game mechanics. For those interested in knowing; Insindious is a turn-based RPG with a 2-dimensional art style that allows free movement. The Insindious team has gathered many open source resources and worked into putting them together to make Insindious what we'd like it to be.

-Position Information-

HUD Designer (1)
We plan on utilizing a minimalistic, vibrant and easy to navigate system of interfaces to make the game easy on the eyes and easy to maneuver. A game such as an RPG can be very heavy on the menus, which is why we want to ensure players are pleased with the layouts. The game focuses around several themes and features many symbols, insignias and representative colours. We appreciate those who have an eye for style, symbolism and space management.

Landscape Artist (1)
Scenery and atmosphere are what give an RPG its nostalgic appeal. Surrounding the player in lush environments and presenting story situations and moments with colorful and detailed backgrounds gives the story and the world its own character. You may also be tasked with collaborating with our character artist when making layouts and promotional art; with those two powers combined we can deliver breathtaking impressions.

- Questions? -

1. Payment?: All payments are negotiable.
2. When is the game to be released?: Sometime next year hopefully. I was planning on releasing it by summer, but due to some complications I've been set back a while. It will most likely be released in Winter. I encourage you to apply as soon as possible however.
3. Is there any other information I should know of?: That's it for the basics. Once you've become a member I'll grant you with the resources, information and details not covered in this thread.
