AVCon is and will always be community-focused. At Team AVCon, you can connect with your fandom, make friends and have a good time.
Connect with the Community
The fun doesn’t have to end after the events are over with the AVCon Social Club. The AVCon Social Club is a Facebook group that allows everyone to connect and engage with the community throughout the year. The group is moderated and family-friendly for all ages, but ensure you read through the rules to ensure the group remains a safe and friendly environment.

Henchwench is a full-time cosplayer and propmaker, working with Scrap Shop Props as half of Hench & Scrap Foundry. With a focus on turning cool stuff from games into real life objects, Hench & Scrap have worked for companies like Blizzard, Bethesda & Wizards of the Coast. At age 14, Henchwench got her start in costume working part-time at Weta Workshop on the Lord of the Rings movies in the weapons and armour department. She later studied a degree in costume at NIDA, which she followed up with a graduate certificate in costume design at AFTRS, and worked in film/TV/theatre costume before deciding to pursue her passion for video game costumes & props full time. She was also the 2016 winner of the Australian Championships of Cosplay, and represented Australia at the Crown Championships of Cosplay in Chicago.![]()

Scrap Shop Props has combined his background of engineering with larping to build some pretty epic cosplay. As a full-time propmaker and cosplayer, he works alongside Henchwench as half of Hench & Scrap Foundry, making epic props for companies such as Blizzard, Bethesda & Wizards of the Coast (to name just a few!). He loves the creative process and bringing the imaginary to life, and relishes a challenge - be it a seven and a half foot tall Reinhardt costume or Tyrael's ten foot wide glowing wings. Cosplay has been a big confidence boost to Oarin, a natural introvert, and helped him find his voice in the community.
