Commissions are closed unless otherwise indicated elsewhere. Please do not message me with a commission request unless you've been directed here from an opening post.
This page lists my (StormyStarlight's) current commission prices! I don't often open commissions, but if you're interested, I recommend keeping an eye out for announcements in bulletins on this Toyhou.se account or on my Instagram.
If you are interested in any type of art that does not have a price listed below, please ask me if I would be willing to do it! If I am, I will give you a quote. This quote will be valid until my commission prices are next adjusted (compare the date you received the quote to the "last updated" date below).
Below is a summarized list of some of my most notable commission policies. Please make sure you read my complete Terms of Use and Service document before requesting a commission.
Policies
- I reserve the rights to all artwork I create. It is not for commercial use by anyone other than myself.
- I do not draw suggestive/sexually focused art, real people, very complex characters, or any subjects I am morally opposed to or uncomfortable with. I am willing to draw humanoids, but I ask that you recognize they are not my strong suit—I have much more practice with feral and anthro characters. :)
- Payment is through PayPal (USD) or deviantART Points only. Prices are listed in USD only to avoid clutter; deviantART Points are accepted at a conversion rate of $1.00 = 100p. Not all openings are for both currencies; please read the details provided on each opening post to determine which is being accepted at the time.
- The prices below are base prices and are subject to increase if your request is especially complex.
- Payment is accepted after the sketch has been completed and approved unless otherwise indicated.
- Cancellations are accepted at any point during the process except after the commission is completed. You will receive a refund equivalent to the value of what has not been completed.

A closeup of your character's face, drawn specifically with use as an icon in mind. They're made to work well as both squares and circles so they may be used across several different platforms if desired. Backgrounds are solid-color by default, but may feature a simple design or a pride flag instead upon request for no extra charge. They may only feature one character each.
Hover to view each icon example as a circle.
An experimental 300x300px limited-palette pixel-art illustration of your character. These are drawn with a randomized 5-color palette, may range anywhere between a closeup and a fullbody of your character, may have any kind of background, and are generally inconsistent. This is an experimental type of commission with few standards, and I do not accept detailed descriptions or specifications for them—you may provide a general color scheme (e.g. 'colorful' or 'red'), theme (e.g. 'nature' or 'loneliness'), character personality/backstory description, or song/moodboard/etc. for inspiration, but otherwise you get what you get. As there is no sketch stage in the process of creating these, payment is taken upfront. Additional characters are + $2.00 each.
A standalone drawing of your character. This can range from a pagedoll to a scene—anything you want it to be! They are flatly colored with a solid-color/transparent background by default but may have shading, a simple background, and/or a complex background added for an extra charge. Simple backgrounds feature custom patterns/designs or simple scene elements and lighting; complex backgrounds feature more integrated and/or detailed background elements/scenery. Additional characters may be added for the cost of their base price—the added shading and background prices are per-piece and do not increase with the number of characters.
A single character design created from scratch, with inspiration, or as a redesign. You may give me as much or little creative freedom as you'd like! This typically only includes one fullbody view of your character. Toggleable layers, alternate versions, and extra views are added at my discretion based on need for design clarity. If you would like to specifically request extra views, they may be added at the cost of their equivalent illustration commission price (above).
Please review my Character Terms of Use before purchasing.
Character Terms of Use
An animated illustration of your character. Besides the animated pixel type, these typically include at least four unique frames. Animated icons always loop endlessly while animated illustrations may either loop endlessly or cut at the end. Animated illustrations may additionally have simple or complex backgrounds and/or feature additional characters, but may not be shaded. Simple backgrounds feature custom patterns/designs or simple scene elements and lighting; complex backgrounds feature more integrated and/or detailed background elements/scenery. Additional characters may be added for the cost of their base price—the added background prices are per-piece and do not increase with the number of characters.
I am particularly selective about which characters I accept for animated commissions; characters with floating shapes, more than four limbs, expansive palettes, detailed markings, gradients, or complex textures are especially subject to price increase or rejection. Additionally, due to the amount of variance allowed by the animated illustration option, it is also especially subject to price increase. Things such as frame count, animation length, animation complexity, amount of animated elements, and amount of character shown are all aspects that may raise its price. The examples below may help provide an idea of how different types of animation may be priced.
