Pretty tough budget request.
Just for comparison, even in countries with pretty high living expenses and extremely high taxes (Germany) this Job is paid with 2k€/2,1k$ gross per month equaling roughly 1,3k€/1,4K$ net. Full time of course.
Next is the quality of some of the assets / designs. I just copy-paste a link to showcase what I mean:
Also some “problems” seem to be made up in my opinion.
This one for example:
I heavily disagree. It was smooth, straight forward and intuitive from the beginning.
And last but not least your main Goal:
Yes it is a challenge, but I can’t see how you tackle it.
The Stickers and Catstanbul designs do not match the other Jupiter designs or jup.eco templates.
The Mascots are horrible Mega-Man-Cats but nothing Jupiverse like. (My opinion.)
Where is the consistency? (Beside all showing Cats)
Until now I thought every Team was doing their own Logos / Designs so I didn’t look for too much consistency, but with this Design Lab involvement in mind I question myself: What consistency are they talking about? 
Just my 5 cent. 
Cheers!
