My Grima Wormtongue costume...
*adoring sigh*
I love this costume very much! ^__^ And its not just a love for the costume itself... Its love for the character and the actor who plays him.
I made the bulk of this costume in 60 hours spanning 3 days. (Sleep? Whats that Precious? Whats sleep, eh? X_X) I decided to torture myself like that because about a week before the Dallas Comic Con I learned that Brad Dourif had been added to the guest list. You see, I had originally planned to make and wear the Grima costume for a much later convention, but when I found out my favorite actor that I've admired since I was 8 years old was going to be there, I had to drop the current costume I was finishing up for Comic Con(Frodo) and sew like a maniac to finish Grima decently enough to wear to the con and show Mr. Dourif just how much I appreciated him.
As for meeting him... it was the greatest, happiest moment of my life. He was very kind to me and let me know just how impressed he was with my costume. I was ecstatic and was very lucky I was able to speak to him as much as I did. We talked about some of the similar problems we had getting around in the costume and he even gave me tips on Grima posing and posture. ^__^
I've improved my costume greatly since that weekend in October and the picture above is of how the costume currently appears. I will continue to update the costume due to a strange mixture of devotion and an insane need for perfection.
I only wish that my costume had looked as nice as it does in this photo back when I met Brad Dourif. I can only hope that I will be able to meet him again sometime soon with my costume looking its absolute best.

A big thanks goes out to my dear sister RedVamp for taking the time to photograph me. And I must bow down and kiss her fetish boots for the wonderful job she did getting just the right angles to bring out my inner Grima/Dourif-ness. ;P

wow! that's an absolutely amazing job!! even the hair and makeup! :worship: i'm in awe
woah.... good job....!!!!!
my god, that is majorly impressive. I absolutely love Grima, and you look dead-on. btw, you're very experienced in yaoi/slash/etc, who do you think is right for Grima in the case of other dudes? (eep, try imagining that!) :giggle:
O_O OMG that's the best cosplay I've ever seen. I'm so totally serious... you look dead-on. Perfect...

The whole of life is just like watching a film. Only it's as though you always get in ten minutes after the big picture has started, and no-one will tell you the plot, so you have to work it out all yourself from the clues.

Omigod, that's bloody brilliant! I don't want to even imagine how hard it was making this costume, but you've done an amazing job - great attention to detail. Just out of interest, did you cover your eyebrows with makeup, or shave them off like Grima? I can't tell in the photo! The make-up's great though - got that sickly complexion just right, and I love the sneer on your face. ;)
Thanks for your kind comments. I appreciate them, and yeah, I shaved my eyebrows. The lengths one will go for cosplay. ^^ Brad Dourif was also at the con. I got his autograph and jammed with him for awhile. He was really cool, but I'm furious they cut his scenes from Return of the King. Ahh well, hopefully he'll make an appearance on the extended DVD edition. ^^
pretty damn kewl, how did you ever find the time.
