Want to Design Space Ships? Enjoy Interiror Design?

WELL I NEED YOU!
Yes!
You!

Haha.
Hey guys, I'm part of a small team of people who have set out to create a Sci-Fi Space Adventure game.
Much like Oregon Trails where you have your own ship and crew, and you travel through space encountering other races, dangerous planets, and overcoming all kinds of space related obstacles. And sometimes a crew member will die.

At the moment there are only 4 of us.
The main Boss Guy,
Character Concept,
Race and creature Concept,
and UI/HUD Designers.
We also have people off the side, such as a Sound Engineer.

We need someone who knows their Ships, and would like to go about designing some.
This will include Human Space Crafts, Alien space Crafts, Space Stations of all variations.
We've also had an idea for the HUD and UI which would require an interior designer who is capable of a sci-fi futuristic feel.
So please send me note if you believe you would be an asset to our team.

I'd like to point out that this is unpaid work for the time being, and everyone within the team have jobs, so the project may be slow moving, but we all very dedicated.
I have recently graduated from University studying Computer Game Design, the main boss man has been working as QA manager in Video games for over 5 years, as well as MOD work, and the concepter has been freelance working for Indie companies. So we're not just a bunch of 12 year olds wanting to make a game for fun- we're 20+ year olds wanting to make a game for fun :D

We look forward to having on board our team
(get it?!)

Hi! i dont know what are you looking for exactly, but if "2d/concept art" works for you... i would be really interested :)!
I got a full time job, so if most of your staff is in the same situation..it would be really interesting for me to dedicate some hours per week to the project :)

..if you have a more complete idea/story of the game, i would really apreciate it :D!

Okay, then how do you feel about Designing Space Ships?
The lead and myself are currently working on a Prototype run through of the game, with silly stick figures and bad drawings. When that's available I'll give it to you to play around with, it should be late next week if we're running on time.

Or UI/HUD work, if you feel like that is more up your alley?

Do you have a game document already?
Is this 2D or 3D?
What genre is it? RPG, strategy, FPS, etc?
Who's the target audience?
What work have you already completed on the game?
May I see samples of the work that the artists have done?

A full design document is not available as of yet, though it is being worked on, and will become available soon.
It is 2d.
It's..not really a genre that I can place. If anything it's more of simulator, with strategy aspects to it. Very much like Oregon Trails, similar to FTL.
Only work that is completed at the moment is reference gathering, and a lot of documents of ideas that need to be sorted. We are very early into development, and are just gathering concepters to help bring the bigger picture together.
The only artwork available at the moment is my own, which is me faffing around with Uniform Designs, they will be uploaded tomorrow, and I will send a link as a reply to this message for you. Though, as I said, it is just uniform concepts for now- not the art style we are aiming for. We also have mock up UI/HUD work, which is just mock ups, and our designer working out what we want, and how the UI will work, not the art style we are aiming for... which are not available right this moment, as they are on my work laptop which I do not have with me >_< Although you may find the designer here; [link]
