      They were a burrito inside of air bubble wrap.

      You can see their official papers which included a fancy wax seal.

    2. Congrats here in this thread, too. :-) Super cute!

      Interesting that your seal in the Coa is red, because mine is green. Are they a different colour for the different resin colours or just random?

    3. They look absolutely amazing. The wings look incredible. What are your customisation plans?

    6. I wonder! Does anyone else have a different color seal/what color is your dragon?

      I plan to paint their claws and eyelids with an iridescent acrylic (that matches their eyes, which are pink and teal) and deck them out in a scholarly bag and books. <3

      Right?? The horn adds so much personality. I finally got the eyes installed too, their soul is home. Not great photos because it was like 3am (I got the how-to email for the eyes and bolted out of bed to install them lol) but look at them!

      Thank you! Honestly the sculpt is amazing in person, so delicate and detailed.

    10. They're so elegant! Seeing the photos after the "soul" installation really breathed life into them :aeyepop: Would love to see more photo spam if you could, I think these are the first owner photos I've seen of this doll so far!

    11. I literally built the entire gallery page for my Rafayeh on my website because I wanted to answer this question, lol. (Also, hi!! I've been liking your posts about your Rafayeh on Instagram!)

      I got a dark green Rafayeh, and her wax seal is green and silvery-white. First time I've seen a wax seal on the CoA itself...I've seen them rarely on envelopes before, but not directly on the CoA! Super classy! Knowing that they did different seal colors just adds to the classiness.
