Let’s fire up the Spiral Power and learn how to draw Gurren from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann in 26 steps. Known for its massive sunglasses and bold red armor, this mecha is one of the most iconic machines in anime history.
Main Features of Gurren
- Head: Large, black sunglasses that double as detachable weapons.
- Body: Red armored torso with heavy mechanical plating and Team Gurren’s logo on the shoulder.
- Arms: Thick armored arms capable of wielding drills and weapons.
- Legs: Stocky mechanical legs with gold plates near the ankles.
- Details: Rebuilt from a captured Gunzar, it combines salvaged parts for a stylized, unique design.
If you’re excited to draw Gurren, you might also enjoy sketching Lagann, Arc-Gurren Lagann, or even Simon and Yoko from the series.
