So we picked up my aunt's RS Mei from the post office today and I took some pictures before taking everything over to her house. She's on a business trip so I figured this was a good time to sneak her presents in to surprise her when she gets home.


Box from DDE. I am not used to getting such small packages. XD It seemed teeny after the boys.


Box inside the box.






The not so bubble-wrapped mummy.








Almost had her standing on her own but didn't trust her so...yay for stands!


Fairy!


With her trusted centaur friend. ^_^


*Waiting for their new mommy to come home so they can surprise her*

Hope you enjoyed seeing my aunt's RS Mei in blue skin. ^_^

Mei was my first doll and I still love her facial sculpt - it's one of the prettiest out there, as far as I'm concerned. And that's a lovely dress!

I've always wanted a Mei, someday I may get one for myself. They are lovely! I had fun playing with her as I got her ready. Maybe I will have to steal her from my aunt from time to time. XD
It is a lovely dress! It was made by frezje on Etsy.

She is gorgeous Might I inquire about the colour? On other pics I have seen so far, the green looked.. well, greener ^^", and this is such a lovely light green colour. Is this RS's "normal" green colour, or doe they now have light green?

EDIT: nvm, just seeing that this is the BLUE skin colour (those who can read...^^")

No worries I was a bit surprised at the color when I opened her up as well. And the lighting probably doesn't help.

Very pretty girl and her outfit is smashing!

THOSE WINGS!!! she's just perfect. The wings, wig, dress... what a lovely combination. She is absolutely exquisite. You have to spam us with lovely photos.

Ooh she's so pretty! Was your aunt thrilled? You are so sweet to do this for her! And I love the completed outfit/wing combo!

My friend is thinking of a Mei for her first doll, and while she has no concrete plans yet I wish I could surprise her with one. Ah well, she's not sure yet, so I won't do anything... yet. I really want to do something for her involving the doll hobby. Maybe if I learn faceups I could be her on-request artist (if I'm any good)... anyway, enough about me, your Mei is wonderful!

Helping out with getting clothes/wigs/eyes is always good too. I got my aunt sucked in with the dragons from Aileen Dolls and mostly just help her put their eyes in but I decided she needed a fairy keeper for all her critters. I showed her the Mei and she seemed interested and I knew she liked the blue hujoo berry as there were a few floating around with really cool custom faceups so I figured a blue Mei was a great choice. For the most part I just decided on her look myself because I know my aunt and I have similar tastes and her favorite color is blue. XD And unlike many people my aunt doesn't have any specific character she is trying to create so I just had fun creating a fairy critter keeper for her. ^_^

Thanks everyone! She loves her presents even though she keeps calling me a butt. Apparently she didn't notice them when she first got home from her trip so my mom had to tell her they were there. XD Stole some pics from her FB account. >_> I had a lot of fun putting her together and I'm glad everything I bought for her worked so well together, I was a bit worried at first since I wasn't sure how all the different shades of blue would go with her skin tone. I swear that dress changes color though I know it's just the camera reacting to the lighting.

She's adorable! I have a Mei and she is such a lovely sculpt. One of the few impulse buys I've never regretted. :p
