con impressions and more [photo dump]

22 Oct, 2025

I went to the HeroesXP con in Cologne! Really liked the event and won't mind checking it out next year too. I love big artist alleys, and theirs also felt very diverse, very creative and cool. Artist alleys are my highlight and where I love to spend most of my time, and this con was basically 90% artist alley! Also had some German VA's of popular media (even Spongebob) and Paddy from Toggo.

Have some pictures of the stalls:

This was at "Happy Hatchlings". Cute little (fake) terrariums.

Moonbia! Amazing stickers.

Forgot where this was :(

Miss Marie! Very very beautiful cutesy cake decoration. I bought Cinnamoroll jewelry there.

My other favorite stall aside from Miss Marie and Moonbia was Sarah Pluis and her lofi art. :)

Here's my haul - I just love buying stuff from artists. Lots of stickers, finally a black beanie (been searching for a while for one I like!), washi tape, Cinnamoroll jewelry, some Sanrio minis.

The con also had a 'Con Hon' - a convention book that travels from event to event, where you can draw, write down your impressions, advice, your social media handles and more. Was very cute, and the art in it was impressive.

I obviously had to do my part and leave a little note.

Aside from the con, some impressions:

I got some gift jewelry for one of my purchases, but I wouldn't wear this style I think, so I adorned my notebook instead.

I also made a really influencer-looking skyr bowl for fun. It was surprisingly time consuming and not at all effortless. These bowls are really *performative, man*.

My wife has bought more and more X-Wing. We even played a battle with nearly 20 ships on the table, it was huge. Now her box with the custom foam storage arrived.

My next few weeks look nuts in my calendar. University lectures, practice groups, birthdays, travels, data protection lectures. Can't wait to write about it after.

And also, very thankful and happy about a shirt I got. <3
