Electrikid, aka Leo Neville is a cosplayer, model, wig stylist, and makeup artist from England, and is next in our special guest line up for Cos-Con 2016.
Leo draws much of his cosplay inspiration from Anime, and his skills include wefting his own lacefront hairlines, beards, and sideburns, as well as styling against gravity and giving wigs some impressive finishing touches.
His make-up work, as you can see, is second to none; a skill he studied at Delamar Academy of Makeup & Hair, coming out with a HE Certificate and a Distinction in prosthetics.
Leo also runs Colour Me Kiddo: through which he imports and supplies products from the best cosplay supplies companies, alongside his own creations. He also dabbles in prop making, and is working hard to broaden his skill set to include more sewing and fabric techniques.  
When not attending conventions (and sometimes while he is), you'll find Electrikid filming cosplay vlogs and tutorials for youtube, and he's sure to offer us a whole bunch of cosplay knowledge in Glasgow this August.
