CovidPass: Making it badass by drawing inside the QR code

As a small, useless but fun hobby project, I wanted to try and draw something inside my EU Covid Pass QR certificate WITHOUT relying on error correction or rendering the digital certificate invalid.

TL;DR - some deflate misuse, mixed-mode alphanumeric and numeric QR encoding, mask choice override, padding the code with content that base45 encodes to numbers only and choosing them in a way to produce a meaningful image. Apparently, verifier apps are fine with it - every one I tried scans green.

This is a non-prod demo cert used for illustration of the concept with some funny images inside:

Would there be any interest in me doing a post explaining how it was done?

Also, what else should I draw inside?
