To everyone that will be cosplaying Gurren Lagann Characters, here is where we will figure out when we want to meet up for a photo shoot and talk about our Gurren Lagann cosplays, if you need wig help or such advice this is the place to get a little help ^^ . I cannot wait to see you all at KumoriCon 2010!
-
=D
I'm not working on anything in particular for Yoko right now since I've got no money for materials. I could probably make the gloves and shorts if I was feeling motivated enough...
What are you doing for her boots? I'm thinking I'll either get some boots and modify them or make bootcovers but I'm not really sure.
And Shay doesn't know what she's doing for Nia's dress, ahaha~
-
I am actually going to go to (as bad as it sounds) an adult shop and going to pick up some of their white boots, because they are perfect for Yoko's boots. I just hope to god that they still have a pair. For the flames I am just going to paint them on with acrylics. ^^
-
Yay! I'mma have a Gurren Lagann group this year with a Yoko, and a Nia. And hopefully I can convince my dad to let my friends come along as Kamina and Simon. (all pre-time skip)
-
I have a Simon, but I don't plan on wearing him to Kumoricon.
My friend Mikal and his girlfriend have started a GL group. They have a Simon (not me), Yoko, Kamina, and Nia.
Oh ho ho, couples.
-
I'm cosplaying as anti-spiral Nia I think, and pre-time skip. :333
-
My friend Mikal and his girlfriend have started a GL group. They have a Simon (not me), Yoko, Kamina, and Nia.
Oh ho ho, couples.
We've got a Kittan, I think we win ;-)
-
We were going to win anyways, we're so coo- =3=
-
HECK YES~ I love that fighting enthusiasm!
Shay's Nia wig came in the mail, still waiting for my delicious Yoko one.
-
Zentai bodysuuuuits! I'M FOCUSING ON ANTI-SPIRAL.
-
Is your wig pretty? *3*
-
BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO DO PRE-TIMESKIP FOR OUR AUGUST PHOTOSHOOT, LITTLE MONKEY.
I want to do Miss Yomoko sometime too!
@ Her wig, it looks pretty but I haven't even taken it out of the bag :O
-
IWANTMYWIG. *o*
-
Bahaha, I got my wig!
Me and oslapedo are going to take Yoko-Nia pajama pictures later(:
-
I'm excited to see dem :D
-
Bwahaha. :33
It's really spur of the moment, so they're gonna be our normal pajama's, but ohwell!
-
That's all cool with me!
Maybe I'll throw on my Simon wig and do a PJ Simon picture to join in the love fest.
-
Ahhhh, that would be really awesome!
You should♥
-
Do you think he just sleeps in sweats w/o a shirt, or wears a shirt...
And I am thinking he doesn't wear his goggles to sleep :P
-
Hahha, I think a shirt is fine! xDD
I still haven't seen the anime yet. >o>
What would Nia-Chan wear?
-
It would be pink and girly xD
-
I think I can do that(:
Bwaha, I'm excited!
-
xD
Woo~
I'll check out what I have in my closet...
-
Sahara's Yoko wig was being a butt, so it was just me. >o>
-
Pictures? =O
-
I'll post a few. xD
I really love my wig. >u<

*SQUEES*
I LIKE MY NIA *3*
You make the cutest Nia ever~
-
I LOVE YOU. xDDD
I've never seen meh Simon. D;
BUT I HAVE SEEN YOU SOUNDY, AND SO YOUR MY FAVORITE SIMON EVER. ♥
-
:D
I'm mostly having boobeh problems. The whole open shirt thing is really getting to my over sized chest >.e
-
Hahaha, I'm sorry! xDD
Us females have it tough. D;
-
I've tried many a wrap, and none of them looked quite right ;A;
I WILL MAKE THEM LOOK AS CLOSE AS I CAN THOUGH :D
-
I BELIVE IN YOU.
How're you gonna do the open-shirt thing? xD
-
Skin colored thank top >>
No way my boobs will do the whole side pully thingy xD
-
Haha, good luck then! xD
Skin colored spandex works really well too I've heard!
-
Flesh colored compression shirt? YOU CAN DO IT, YOOO~
-
I tried a compression shirt with a skin colored tank top over it, and it didn't work. It just made Simon look like he had moobs >.e
-
What a predicament :X
GIVE ME YOUR BOOBS, THEN WE'LL BE TOTALLY LEGIT ~
-
Let's do this wonderful exchange :D
-
I would totally cosplay Yoko, but I'm not busty enough >_>; Maybe I'll cosplay Nia...I dunno, I've already got a lot of other cosplays I'm working on at the moment and not enough money. ;^;
-
If you don't have the money, I'd to Yoko *laughs*
It's small enough not to cost much.
-
Aha, I guess that's true. xD Hmm, I'll think about it. I just really wanna cosplay someone from Gurren Lagann. It's too epic not to~
-
Gotta love TTGL xD
I really want someone to be Leeron.
-
I still haven't even read/seen it. o.o
I'll start reading the manga right now! xD
-
Do et!
-
OKAYS I WILLLL.
I wonder if I should try making the dress in a few weeks? :3
-
Oh, I never got Soundy/Simon pics by the way. ;O;
I FEEL SO HURT.
-
MY WIG WAS BEING A BISH AND I COULDN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE ;A;
-
I STILL LOVE YOU.
-
If you don't have the money, I'd to Yoko *laughs*
It's small enough not to cost much.
Ehhhh, you'd think it wouldn't cost that much because she's practically naked but she's got a crapton of accessories, those shoes, the gun, and of course the wig. It also adds up if you use nice fabric, like, I made a Yoko top out of cotton, and it looked okay I suppose, but I'm going to make a new top, and then the shorts, gloves, and boot covers out of pleather which is rather pricy. :O
I want to get most of my Yoko fabrics some time this month and knock this cosplay out ~
-
I have the Yoko top done. ^^ not to just do the shorts and her jacket, (doing time skip Yoko) anyways I just wanted to say Vinyl and Leather are both a pain to work with! XD
-
What type of leather are you working with?
My best friend made her Organization XIII coat out of upholstery pleather and she couldn't pin it >.e
It was horrible. She had to tape everything instead of pinning it. It was just painstaking.
-
Its leather that they use for horse riding chaps. I dont know what its called and then vinyl, because the leather got to expensive. But it all matches so I am not going to complain.
-
@Shay Wow where did you get your wig? It's so pretty!!! =O
Anyone have any ideas for photoshoot times?
-
I STILL LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU TOO, MY NIA~
-
@Shay Wow where did you get your wig? It's so pretty!!! =O

COSPLAYWIG ON EBAY. x333
I STILL LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU TOO, MY NIA~
<33333
-
Gurren Lagann photoshoot for Sunday sound good? I think any time between 12-3pm'd be cool~
-
Sounds good with me (=
-
Yeah yeah.
Where~?
-
Hey guys! I've got a Kittan and Kiyoh coming as well! I'm doing pretimeskip Kiyoh, and my girlfriend is doing Post-time skip Kittan. ^^
-
Yayaya, I can't wait to see you~! x3333
Make sure to come to the Photoshoot! :3
-
Of course! -spins around happily- I'm so excited! I don't have to bind for her!
And I don't have to openbind at all this con!
Speaking of! If anyone needs suggestions for openbinding, come talk to me. I do it a lot.
-
Ooooh, open-binding? :'O
Is that like what someone would do for Simon?
And yayaya, I dun have to either~
YAY NIAAA~
-
Most definitely. It looks the best in my opinion.
X3
I did it for Taboo Sho as Sakuracon this year. So. Much. Fun!
-
Thanks for the open binding help Saki :D
It's super easy after doing it OVER AND OVER to make sure I got it down xD
See what I did there?
My most recent issue is my wig. I'm not sure where to find a wig dark enough for Simon, and long enough in the front for me to style, but short enough in the back so I don't have to >>
Help?
-
THE ONE YOU ORDERED LOOKS AWESOME~! :33
I'm pretty much gonna be Nia for the whole con. xDD
Maid Nia, Swimsuit Nia, and Pre-timeskip Nia. ;DD
WOOOOOOOO,
-
xD
I'm only being Simon for a little while... unless I get a text from Shay, Sahara, or Zach saying "KATIE, WE NEED A SIMON, PRONTO >O"
Oh oh oh!
I convinced a friend of mine to be our Kamina~
Griff (http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs414.snc3/24994_1427596015927_1413624799_31163976_5633084_n.jpg) as our Kamina~
-
Nngh, I want to join you guys so bad. I kinda want to cosplay Adiane sometime (god, I love her <3), but I could never pull off her insanely epic personality ;A;. I need to cosplay TTGL sometime in the future, though!
-
ADIANE ADIANE ADIANE

I'm going to sand it and paint it tomorrow.
I THINK IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD, EH?
-
YES
-
Sanded my drill, and me thinks I'll paint it tomorrow. Also fixed the zipper and lining on my Simon coat (never ordering a cosplay off ebay again). Also: Started styling our Kamina's wig, and started remaking my goggles.
I AM SO READY TO FILL KUMORICON WITH THE FIGHTING SPIRIT!
-
YAY THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPYYYY.
We have a Kamina? :DDD
OH YOU TOLD ME THAT BEFORE, HUH? xD
Forgetful Nia is forgetful~

Griff said he's going to take me out cosplay shopping with him so we can get the stuff for his Kamina :D
-
Yeah, I love it. ; u ;
AND AWESOME. >:DDD
TEAM KUMORI-GURREN IS A GO!
-
YUSH!
*grabs drill*
THIS IS THE DRILL THAT WILL PIERCE THE HEAVENS!
So psyched for this group 8)
-
Awesome! Last year I only saw 6 Gurren Lagann cosplayers, Lord Ginome(think I misspelled it XD), Yoko, And two couples going as post-time skip Simone&Nia, with one Nia being the Anti-Spiral version. I really want to do a TTGL cosplay next year, Lol since I have a broad body structure I should go AS Gurren Lagann! XD
-
Soundy - YESH, and we will get such awesome freaking pictures! >:333
Hehe, so uberly excited.
ME AND YOU NEED SOME CUTEEE PICS. x3
Observer - Are you serious?
I didn't see any Gurren people last year. xD
I have a feeling that this year there will be tons of Yoko's. :33
-
Yea I saw Lord Ginome randomly talking to some other people by the front doors WHILE talking to Simone&Anti-Spiral Nia! XD I hope there will be a bunch more Gurren Lagann cosplayers so I can yell out "JUST WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM!!!" and people will ACTUALLY get what I'm refrencing!...Man, for such an amazingly epic anime, TTGL is practiacly unheard of amongst the sea of Narutards and other "Main Anime"
-
Shay - DUDE! Yes! We'll have to be the cutest Nia and Simon at con, even though we're not dating!
Observer - Yeah... There were a lot at Sakura-con this year, so maybe there'll be a bunch at kumori...
I'm kinda hoping there won't be, so Shay and I will automatically be the best Nia and Simon, with the best Rossiu, Kamina, and Yoko!
xD
IF YOU DID GURREN LAGANN I WOULD LOVE YOU FOREVER!
-
@ Starry
Your cosplay is going to be the best because you will be the only one with matching nails! XD
-
-Soundninja
I WILL do Gurren Lagann references, ESPICALLY when I'm XEMNAS from Kingdom Hearts2!
-
Katie - For sureee~! > u <
CUTESTTTT EVAR. x3
Observer - I would love you. x33
Korin - Haha, thanks, and yess! I can for sure send payment tomorrow, sorry! > n <
-
Simon'll keep his eyes out for a TTGL referencing Xemnas xP
-
Nia too! xD
AND I WILL REPLY TO THAT REFERENCE WITH ANOTHER PROLLY.
-
SHAY! Katie had an idea! PM it to youuuu~
-
WHAT. x333
-
SENT THE PM!
-
YES, YOU DID ;3
-
SEARCH GURREN LAGANN MEME ON DEVIANTART.
So much awesomness, gawwd.
-
WILL DO!
...Tomorrow... When I'm not on my phone >.e
-
D-d-double post 8)
I got myself some foam for my goggles, and I'll finish them today!
And I got chain for my drill, and I'll be dulling my shoes (made them out of duck tape xD). I'm so psyched to be almost done...
Once I get my new wig in the mail I'll be DONE :D
-
HELL YEAH GO KATIE! >:DD
I need pichurs once you're done! x3
-
I so willll!
But my freaking goggles are being a BEOTCH >O
I'll keep trying, but if anyone has any ideas, please please please help >.o;;
-
I'm sorry. ; 3 ;
I would help, but I'm terrible with crafts.
-
Is okay! I'll figure it outttt!
-
@Soundninja What I've seen alot of people do (and what I'm doing) Is taking an old pair of big sunglasses (with a similar design to his goggles) and then painting them (=
-
I tried something like that once... Didn't work for me. Bend just isn't the right place to find things like that, it seems.
I'm thinking I'll just try again with the foam and safety goggles, then if that doesn't work I'll think of something else.
-
WOO LET'S REVIVE THIS THREAD.
I need to get Nia shoes.....hrm.
-
What do her shoes look like again? :D
I'll join the search!
-
OH GOD GUYS, I'M THRILLED RIGHT NOW.
While browsing the Cosplay.com marketplace, I noticed my favorite cosplayer's Adiane costume for sale and jumped on the opportunity <33. If I can get the wig in time, I'll definitely bring Adiane to Kumoricon for epic Gurren Lagann times YES!
-
OMG sweet!
That's epic! :D

Y-yaaayy crying tears of joy right now :'D

That makes me happy! :D

I'm excited for con too! *3*

OMG WE'RE GONNA HAVE LOTS OF NIA AND SIMON FUN TIMES, RIGHT? > u <

HECK YEAH!
Speaking of which, how are we gonna pose for strangers :O

Oh yes, for sure.
Hmm, I will look at Nia and Simon pictures today to get ideas!

Okay! I'll look at some too! :3

@sgt

-
I'm gonns be super in character when I'm Nia I think. xDD
So don't get annoyed if I ask a lot of questions please. :<
-
Finish the series, Shay! Nia doesn't ask questions after everything.
-
UH, THE NIA I COSPLAY ASKS A LOT OF QUESITONS, AND THE SERIES IS TOO SAD TO FINISH. D:
-
I might get annoyed. But then again, Simon isn't exactly the most tolerant person in the world, so it might be in character!
-
I will tone it down around you then. xDDD
I CAN'T WAIT TO BE NIA RAHRAHRAH
I need the shoes still though. :x
-
yay :D
-
I don't like my Simon cosplay very much :x

I can't stand most of my cosplay... I like the shorts, Belt, shoes, and mah Boota! Ohhhh! And mah drill!
But I don't like my coat, my fattttttt, my wig, or my goggles.
-
We should probably decide on a shoot place.... ^^'

-
Katie - YOUR WIG IS AMAZING, WTF ARE YOU TALKNIG ABOUT? YOU ARE NOT FAT M'DEAR, I haven't seen the goggles or coat....BUT I'M SURE THEY PWN ;O;

Hey you Gurren Lagann peeps, I posted a picture of the make-up I'm thinking about doing when I cosplay Nia, in the cosplay progress thread.
Should I change anything, or like, use less eye-liner or anything?
I really need advice xD
-
Oh GAWD
Cosplaying kamina and I hate that I have to do some extra prep for him
so tedious
-
Chilling with Griff, helping him find stuff for Kamina.
Gotta love Rossiu and Simon helping out Kamina and his outfit search xD
-
Yoko is going to be the death of me but I'mma fight the power and get it done, or what hve you.
I'm really excited to see everyone's cosplay!
