Fursuit commissions
Interested in a commission? Here's all the info you need!
My quote form will open up during commission openings, and will close again once all slots are filled.
After getting a quote, you can then be in with a chance of getting a commission slot! But if you are unsuccessful, or choose not to move on with a commission, you can move onto my waiting list to get first dibs at future slots.
Adoptable fursuit designs
Fursuit adoptables are now available! Want an artistic liberty suit on a budget? But also want to know the character you'll get before committing? Then this is for you! Adoptables also bypass commission openings, so you can get a suit quicker than waiting for slots to open!

Why should I choose Nyxia Creations to make my fursuit?
Check out the below video for a great rundown of why we will be perfect to bring your character to life!
How do I get a commission slot?
- Fill out my quote form when it opens up!
- On the quote form, you have the options to commission now, go on the waiting list, or just get a quote. People opting for a commission now will be added to the shortlist for that opening. After the commission opening deadline, I will go through the shortlist of clients and pick out which ones will be worked on this opening.
- If you don’t get a slot, you can also choose to join the quote club for next time, or cancel your commission.
- If you cancel or turn down your quote, it will be deleted from my form, and you will need to get a new one if you change your mind.
- If a cancellation happens on a slot, people on my quote club will be contacted and offered a slot to replace it. This will be first come first served.
Whats the difference between the quote club and shortlist?
- Quote club: I like this quote but I need some more time before committing (waiting list)
- Shortlist: I like this quote and I’m ready to commission now
What materials do you use / are your materials allergy friendly?
As far as I am aware, I do not use any materials that may be an allergen. I am happy to disclose a full list of materials with anybody where necessary, but if you have any kind of sensitivity I would recommend getting your commission lined. I line everything with neoprene (Not the kind used on wetsuits, as that contains rubber and can be an allergen).
How long do fursuit commissions take to complete?
Due to the nature of fursuit commissions, I cannot give an ETA that covers all commission types. Upon commissioning, the client will be given an ETA for their individual suit. I aim to keep my maximum wait time under 1 month per suit where possible.
If you are at the back of my commission queue, expect to be waiting 4-6 months for your suit to be started.
When do you open for commissions?
Currently my commissions openings are around May, and October! May slots open at the Confuzzled convention where most slots will be taken by attendees. If you do not attend Confuzzled, the October opening is your best bet to get a slot. Other slots for one or two suits may open elsewhere in the year depending on work load.
Which payment methods do you accept?
Paypal and bank invoices are currently the only forms of accepted payment. All payments made via bank invoice are subjected to a 3% discount!
Can you make me a free fursuit?
No. The only circumstances in which you can get a free fursuit is if I hold a raffle for one which is very, very rare
How do I make...
If you wish to make your own fursuit, please consult the YouTube series by Kloofsuits and follow along with that. It's how I've learnt the craft and is much more helpful than I could be. I am willing to give criticism and offer advice when asked but I will not walk you through the process. I do also highly recommend Kloofsuits patterns that are sold on their Etsy shop as they are brilliant for beginners and experts.
Where do you buy fur / foam etc?
Please consult fursuitmaterials.com for a massive list of all the materials and parts you could possibly need for making a fursuit or costume. This covers worldwide places to shop for every single material you need.
Is your workshop pet and smoke free?
My studio is within a completely smoke free household.
We currently own two cats and a dog. If you have a serious allergy to either I would recommend not buying a suit from me as I cannot guarantee the suit will be free from all contaminants. I can wash suits before postage for an extra fee, but still cannot guarantee complete removal of all possible contaminants from your suit. If you have allergies, you are purchasing from me at your own risk, and I can take no responsibility.
Pets are not allowed in my studio, but I cannot guarantee total removal of any contaminants.
Do you have a Patreon?
Nope! I use Kofi and their monthly subscription system, where you can get early access, exclusive discounts, products, and commissions. My Kofi also doubles as my online store, where products are cheaper than my Etsy, and more digital products are available!

Still have questions?
Reach out to me! I am happy to answer any questions. I am available via any of the below socials
“I originally requested an artistic liberty partial of snow leopard / Lynx hybrid character, and was accepted for a slot in June.
Work started late September, and the speed at which the suit progressed, from concept to completion was amazing, taking just under a month.
Throughout the entire process Astra was absolutely amazing to work with, with regular updates including many pictures of how progress was being made, and any questions relating to some of the finer parts of the suit design.
Eiyra is such a well made, fantastic looking and comfortable suit to wear - vision is extremely good, the head is roomy, with good ventilation. Because of this, I find I am able to suit for longer periods of time than in other suits I have worn.
The arm sleeves are lined, which is a lovely touch, and fit snugly, and the four finger handpaws allow for a surprising amount of dexterity. The tail is well made, with secure belt loops. The feetpaws are neoprene lined, comfortable to wear and easy to take on and off.
Overall, I recommend Nyxia Creations' work, from concept to completion it was a smooth and straightforward process, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. I have every intention of commissioning her again.”

“I am extremely happy with my Nyxia Creations mini partial! I couldn't have asked for anyone better to bring my sona to life. Astra was amazing to work with and gave me frequent updates on how my suit was progressing while also answering any questions and requests I had quickly and politely! The turnaround time from fur selection to holding him in my hands was excellent, doubly so with how high quality the finished product is! I'd highly recommend!”- @RealCaldyro (2023)
“I'm extremely proud to have a suit from Nyxia Creations. My original suit was from 2019 and he's been very recently refurbished.
Astra has been amazing throughout both my suit's original creation and his 2023 refurbishment. Everything being done has been very well communicated and the improvement of their suits from 2019 to 2023 has been outstanding. Astra works very efficiently and professionally and I couldn't recommend a better maker to anyone! The experience is always positive! Any changes or questions I had during the making process were handled perfectly. Highly recommend!”- @ashthehellhxund (2023)
“I now have 3 partial suits from Nyxia Creations. The fact that I keep going back is a testament to how happy I am with the suits. Astra has never shied away from working with complex markings or detailed requests, and is always open to having discussions about what is feasible and how to make my ideas and concepts workable which I really appreciate! The aftermarket service and willingness to check on repairs and offer maintenance advice really makes for the complete package when commissioning a suit. Highly recommended!”- @RevieRae (2022)
“I am so pleased I trusted Nyxia Creations to bring my Sona to life. Communication was amazing. I frequently received WIP photos and updates. Any questions I had, Astra was quick to answer. Turnaround time was also very quick with the high quality I received. Definitely my first choice if I were to commission for another sona. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to commission a suit!”- @HarveyVulpix (2022)
“I’ve had a really positive experience going through Nyxia creations to make my character come to life. Throughout the process I was kept regularly up to date with WIPs, questions and conversations that made the process very smooth. Astra talked me through what colours would work best and got a range of example sources fully discussing with myself what I would like. The process was quick and smooth and very reasonably priced. She has brought Ginger to life and has made me one very happy Corgi! Couldn’t thank her enough.”- Gingernut (2020)

Terms of service for Nyxia Creations
By ordering anything custom made from Nyxia creations you are automatically agreeing to everything on my terms of service. It is your responsibility as a client to read these terms in full and understand them.
Any confusion on my TOS can be cleared up by sending me a message or email.
Failing to agree or declining to read this will result in declining your order and a possible blacklist.
General
I reserve the right to decline any commission.
I reserve the right to cancel a commission at any point if I feel it is necessary.
Nyxia Creations is not liable for any harm or injury caused by incorrect usage of our products. Please ensure you follow the care and safety guide included with your costume to make sure you stay safe whilst wearing, and take any necessary precautions to keep the wearer safe.
I will not work with anyone under 18 years of age. I will ask for ID before every single commission. Accepted forms of ID are government issued ID, or an 18+ con badge with the character you are commissioning on.
Communication throughout the process will be done through Telegram or Discord only.
If you require a deadline for your work I must be informed prior to work starting as this may incur a rush fee. I will not accept rush orders with a deadline of less than 3 months.
The commissioner must provide at least a 2 view digital reference sheet or your commission will be declined. The ref sheet must be flat coloured; shaded refs may be declined. You can order a reference sheet from me if you do not have one already. Example of a fursuit friendly ref sheet:
Payment
Payment is via Paypal or invoice.
After we move to your commission, the 20% deposit will be required within 72 hours. Failure to do this will forfeit your slot which will be offered to somebody else.
Payment plans are available for any type of fursuit commission or order. Payments can be made in whatever size but your order will not be sent to you until full payment has been received. This will be discussed more upon ordering.
A deposit of 20% (Can rise depending on amount of materials needed) will be required up front so I can buy the materials needed to complete your order. The deposit cannot be refunded once materials have been bought.
If multiple payments are missed over the course of 3 months, your commission may be cancelled.
Major changes that require unpicking seams, removing parts of a costume or buying extra / using more materials than intended will incur a fee. Fees will be negotiated with the client and can range from £5 to £500.
Fees will not be charged if the change is a fault of the maker.
I will not pay any import or customs fees you may receive. You must be prepared to pay them yourself.
The faster you can pay off your suit, the earlier in the queue you will be! So the shorter your payment plan, the earlier you will get your suit. This is in place to prevent me having to store suits while awaiting payment, as I have minimal space to store finished costumes.
Process of your commission
A quote price will be given after the client has completed the fursuit quote form and before purchase. This quote is non-negotiable and does not include any shipping or import fees.
If no slots are open at the time of your quote, or you are not selected at that opening, you will be offered a space on my quote club where you will be given first dibs on any new slots before they go public.
Quotes are valid until the next fursuit opening. If you choose not to commission at the next opening, your quote will be removed from the quote club, and you will have to get a new one at a later date.
Once you're accepted and are placed onto the commission queue, the deposit for your suit will be required, and fur colours and other material choices will be discussed. You can then begin your payment plan, and I will begin work.
WIP photos will be sent whenever I make progress on the suit or need to ask opinions. Constant requests for WIP’s will not be tolerated. On average, you will recieve a WIP every 1-2 days during work.
Depending on commision or order type, the turnaround time can range anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 months. Average turnaround and expected start date will be discussed prior to purchase.
My work days are Monday to Friday. My hours may differ slightly week to week depending on work load.
Work hours are always 10am - 8pm; no work related messages will be checked outside of these hours.
If communication is lost with the buyer for any reason, 1 week will be given for a reply before your commission is put on hold and moved back in the queue. You will then be given 3 months for communication to be re-established. You will receive warning messages during this time frame. If this time frame is exceeded, your order will be cancelled and not refunded to compensate for work already done. This can be avoided by informing me of any possible absences beforehand.
Refunds and cancellations
Refunds are not available once work is completed.
Partial refunds may be available under exceptional circumstances.
Full refunds (excluding deposit) will only be given before fur work and the costume so far will be remade into a different character and sold on to a new buyer as a premade. Once I start furring a head, full refunds will no longer be available if requested by the client.
The 20% deposit is not refundable under any circumstances after materials have been ordered.
Refurbishments / repairs
All suits come with a 6 month warranty. If there is a problem with the suit that is a fault of my own, it can be fixed by me free of charge within this time frame. All repairs after the 6 month time frame will incur a fee. Repairs will not be made if the suit has been used in adult activities, soiled, rough housed or edited by someone else, as this will void the warranty. I can also give advice on repairs and instructions where necessary if you do not want to send the suit back to me.
This warranty covers popped seams, broken parts, holes, sizing issues, and anything else that may have broken due to a fault of mine. This warranty does not cover modifications.
I will not repair or accept any suits for refurbishments that have been soiled or used in adult activities, under any circumstances.
Repair costs will be given on a case by case basis.
All suits that are sent back to me for repairs, edits or refurbishments MUST be cleaned before shipping. If I receive a suit that is stained or has a bad odour, I will charge a £200 deep cleaning fee before I make any repairs. If you do not want to pay this, the suit will be sent back to you immediately, without work being completed. This is for my own hygiene and health.
The above does NOT apply to suits that have been clearly used in adult activities. These will not be accepted under any circumstances whatsoever.
Infringement of my TOS
Intentional Infringement on these terms may result in being blacklisted from Nyxia Creations. I also reserve the right to place a beware on clients who infringe my terms of service if I deem the client to be potentially dangerous to other makers and artists
Claiming my work as your own or reselling with intent to make a profit is copyright infringement and will not be tolerated under any circumstances

If you input the code incorrectly, your request for a quote will be ignored and deleted.By inputting this code into my quote form, it will be assumed that you have read the TOS in full, understand them, and are happy to adhere to them.
