Gurren Jeffann
Gurren Jeffann by @migucast (Miguel Castaneda)

Recently, after being out of contact with an old friend of mine named Darrow (the same Darrow those Melfinas in my gallery belong to) for a long, long time, I suddenly found he was running a comic strip on Starmen.net called The Chosen Four. I was very surprised and hurried to see if it was indeed him and it was! And it just so happens that at the same time he introduces an Exit Mouse character named Reginald Jr., I was starting to watch Gurren Lagann and immediately started calling Reggie's glasses, "Kamina" glasses. And lo and behold, while I was playing Mother 3, this image crystalized in my head! And Darrow's birthday was coming up so... For the first time in I don't know how long, I drew him another gift and it didn't even have a naked Melfina in it! XD

Sadly, I missed the deadline because I was STILL playing Mother 3 at the time and not doing anything else until I was done. And when I did, I immediately got to work on this. Ness is obviously Simon. I wanted to put in his hat but... It didn't work out too well, so I had to remove it. He's doing the typical Team Gurren pose, except he's got his bat up instead of his finger. Also notice the Franklin Badge replaces Simon's Core Drill. Paula ended up being Nia because they have roughly the same hair color and because I simply couldn't see her as Yoko. Besides, with Yoko's outfit, I couldn't submit it here ANYWAY! XD Of course, Yoko fits better with Kumatora--and that WILL be drawn! Jeff gets to be Lagann, complete with his gun. Poo... I actually wrestled with the idea of making Poo Rossiu since he's such a dispicable character but he looks the part so gets to be Rossiu. Reginald Jr., of course, is featured prominently as Kamina, even sporting a unique version of the Team Dai Gurren logo on his cape. Pokey gets to be the Spiral King with a fake, store bought beard and lastly... The Sky Runner gets to play the role of the Cathedral Terra AKA Super Galaxy Dai Gurren, rising as a shadow over the Earth with only its lights showing, ala the 3rd Gurren Lagann opening.
