Recruiting - Background Artist for Shock Cocoon

We're looking for someone with a good work ethic, quick, and an eye for design.

Previous arrangements with another individual to create backgrounds for us didn't pan out (we actually think something might of happened to him; accident or such) and we need someone to step in and provide us with the content needed to complete our first demo.

We have a large pool of photographs (Over 300) which have served as backgrounds, however there is a lack of building interiors. Your job would be to create approximately 15-20 backgrounds. How you go about creating them is up to you, but they must have a similar "flavor" to the other backgrounds we currently have (examples below). If you don't think it's possible to mimic our style, we'll need nearly twice the amount of backgrounds.

Payment/reimbursement for your work is negotiable; ie. a percentage of any donations Studio Nihi receives, use of our web resources (server/space) to build your own website, advertising space.

Interested? Reply to this thread with your contact information and a sample of your work.

Examples of the photographs we've been using (with Photoshop filters applied);

Everyone on our staff including our character artist work for free; the extent of promises I'm willing to make are a percentage of any donations Studio Nihi receives and advertising space on our website.

I attempted a pay for content model early on with Shock Cocoon and found myself with people who'd happily accept my money, produce a little content, then disappear.

I acutally have work references, and I wouldn't ask for all upfront. but I understand, i've been burned the other way too, I made the art, got no payment.
