I\u00a0am the co-creator of <em>Heroes of Geek Cosplay<\/em> a group of four cosplayers\u00a0that live in Wales. I have loved costuming for years and we used to go to events all the time dressed\u00a0up. I am a guest at this year&#8217;s con and am doing a panel on &#8220;<em>Am I too old to cosplay?<\/em>&#8221;\u00a0So I am looking forward to it all to be honest.&#8221; &#8211;\u00a0Wayne Jones (AKA Vanic), 32, Cwmbran<br \/>\n<strong>Some top tips:<br \/>\n*\u00a0<\/strong>It can get really warm inside, especially on the Saturday. Bring plenty of water to stay hydrated.<br \/>\n* Although there is a pay-to-use cash point on site and some stalls take card, it is always a good idea to bring cash to avoid long queues and fees.<br \/>\n* Cosplaying is awesome, but remember practicality is important in this con because it can get really busy. You may make an amazing Elsa but that train on your dress is going to be damaged or become annoying if people are stepping on it every 3 minutes.<br \/>\n*Chat to creators and artists, if they&#8217;re sitting at a stall doing their thing &#8211; go say hi! They&#8217;re always willing to chat if they have the time, and you may learn some new tricks or simply make a friend.<br \/>\n* Most importantly, enjoy. If it&#8217;s your first con then you may get frustrated at all of the queueing, but it&#8217;s perfectly normal. The organisers are used to shepherding fans around from one guest to the next so stay relaxed and listen to the volunteers and everything will be a-okay.<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6045\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6045\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/RussianSanta-20141117-08281948.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6045\" src=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/RussianSanta-20141117-08281948-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Wayne \" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6045\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6045\" src=\"http:\/\/cardiffian.jomec.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/RussianSanta-20141117-08281948-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Wayne \" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> Wayne Jones as Santa from Rise of the Guardians<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cardiff Comic Convention is back this month, bringing with it cosplay, merchandise and special guests.
