About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
The first costume I ever made. *_* Oh the memories. I use an obscene amount of sports tape for this costume not only for the parts visible on my legs and stomach, but also under the jacket for binding. The jacket itself I just sewed from a pattern but modified with a bunch of interfacing to get that ridiculous Gurren Lagann standing collar. The pants I just bought and modified, but the shoes I made bootcovers out of suede and tacked on. Goggles are craft foam and the lenses are made out of transparency sheets painted with glass paint. I just used the core drill that came with my Gurren Lagann Revoltech figure because it was perfect for cosplay, haha. Overall a very simple costume but I like how it turned out very much. :) Especially for the first costume I put my blood, sweat, and tears into making!
