ALLRIGHT HERE'S THE ANNOTOPIA POST!!

First off we've got day 1. I hopped out of bed at 9:30 and got ready and we rolled out at around 11 with my bff being the driver

We did our initial tour of the festival grounds to see where everything is this year around, had some good old curry sausage for lunch and then watched the opening parade at 2pm which you can see on the following pictures

and after we went out little aesthetic walkie walk, we spent the most of our time in the post apocalypse camps, they had a really cool punk rock stage show there going on and also (most importantly) a slushie booth

and then we did some chilling and tomfoolery at the pond of the park. My bff took some cute pics of me there, I also took some cute ones of her but she wants me to cover up her face if I post them but I think that ruins the pictures so youi'll just have to imagine my cottage core sweetie princess in your little heads uwu.

and with that we ended day 1 because I had to be home in time for raid night.

On day 2 I drove and we all went in a more casual look so I didn't bother with a fit check, we also spent most of our day actually spending money there and taking less pictures so there aren't that many. Basicly we arrived at around 2pm after we picked up our buddy who some of you know as hiyuu shiyuu from my ffxiv fc and raid posts.

We did our tour of all of the shops, got hiyuu a cute top and a hat, my bff got herself a set of runestones, a tarot deck and some jewelry. about 3/4 of the way around the market place we got to witness this scene

caused by the dark lord (the poor bastard in a full black plated metal armor in 32°C summer heat) accusing jack sparrow of owing him money, followed by the vikings, the pirates and the post apocalypse running in to help jack, only to instantly get knocked down by an earthshaker spell.

Once we were done shopping we all got ourselves a slushie, chilled by the lake again and then went to our traditional dinner at mcdonalds in full fantasy get up.

Here is my loot from this years festival:

I got myself a set of snake themed runestones and a little fairy bunny from a shop called AnnkasAnderwelt on instagram and these two sword-hairpins from a nother shop that I didn't get the name of sadly.

The runestones are made from resin and some of them have real snakeskin (from natural shedding, no snakes were harmed in the making of these) and pages from what I believe to be the german classic the golden pot in them (the book features a character called serpentina who can turn into an emerald snake).

The runestone set also came with a pendulum, a pentacle charm and this random wooden stick....yeah I'm not sure what the stick is for so I have it to Fluffels (the bunny, his full name Sir Fluffles McFluffington the Wolpertinger) as a chew toy.

and i got this black canvas two piece

the grey pattern is hand printed on with these lenoium shingles that you have to handcarve, roll the paint on and then stick it on the fabric, according to the shop owner they were going for a pagan witch meets viking fantasy kind of vibe and I guess it checks out. I'm not sure if I'll ever use this for any larp character but I for sure will wear this at home, it's super comfy.

Also eveyone please apreciate my one again random pile of stuff behind me. I have offically given up on not having a pile on the guest bed so it is what it is now. Right now it's just all my larp stuff that doesn't need to be washed but still needs to be put away or have some other kind of maintainance done on it.

My bff is thinking about going post apocalyse next year, I'm not so sure what I'll do or if I can even make it next year because of my apprenticeship but I guess we'll see.

SEE YOU AT ANNOTOPIA (lol the con is Sa-Mo and not Fr-So, but I'll be there all 3 days!)

[humanoidchaos]

I just saw your reblog of my annotopia post and HOLY COW A TUMBLR USER FROM MY VAGUE REGION????

I remember like 3 people that I would describe as a fucked up looking chemist so there's a good chance I've seen you too!

Bad Mergentheim, right? I was the average guy in a dirty labcoat

You might have seen me around @sammmmnmmm

I'm really suprised there's so little Annotopia stuff on here, half the people there look like they're on tumblr!

Anyway, big thank you to the photographer!

Also, this woman is like the dutch mad hatter and her on-stage presence was frightening and unhinged in the best possible way!

So last Saturday your local raccoongirl went to Annotopia, germanys biggest fantasy convention, accompanied by her friends Lady Down-Feather, Madam Axo the woodland witch and Cinnamonpaw of the Bushdweller-Clan. We had a blast and a post with pictures from the shows we watched will follow shortly.

And yes Lady Down-Feather and I gave up on shoes because feet go ouchies what ya gonna do?

got really excited for annotopia this year and made a lil logo for when I one day finally achive my dream of having my own camp there, atm I'm only going as my fairy character but I'm 100% planning on also making forest witch characters so I picked flowers for the fae, the deerskull for the forest and the moons and pentagram for the wiccan and witch aspects and the annotopia logo is there for obious reasons. Might get the version without the annotopia logo printed on a flag or tapesty for camp/room decoration

since we are allready on the topic of stuff i forgot to post about: here's this years annotopia. Sadly my bestie couldn't make it so our trio was down to two, but we still had a blast, don't have many pics tho and I'm not gonna post any pictures of mah boi bc I'd have to stick my lil anima-face-censors over it and that's not an effort I'm willing to go through atm lul. Lets start out with some stuff I made for my costume

First off we have this flower lamp thiny which I made from one of these plastic balls you can get in a craftsrote, some wire, fabric and acrylic paint. The plastic ball has like a hole in the back through which I just shoved in a tiny pack of fairy lights and I diffused the light by covering the plastic ball in several layers of spray on glitter glue

and then I attached that to my big boy flower stick

with the cutoffs of my stick and some wire and fake-moss i made some magic wands that are colour coordinated with the others characters for each member of the trio

Sadly at the con itself we didn't take that many pictures, mostly bc we were bussy enjoying the moment, and the ones I do have are mostly just me standing awkwardly and squinting at stuff in the poor lighting or my buddy and I fooling around and recreating ffxiv poses lul

at least I can use my stick as a functioning latern lmao

butterfly capes are from amazon btw, originally I wanted to order custom ones from an etsy shop that I've physically been to during my classtrip to spain but at the time I did not have the financial means to buy from them, definetly will upgrade in the future tho

the etsy shop I'm eyeing is called CostureroReal and they have all things witchy and foresty, they do (or at least did when I was there, idk if they survived the rona) have a shop in Barcelona, just a few minutes by foot from the La Rambla streetmarket, if you ever find yourself in the city.
