The ammo belt is made by gluing brown vinyl around foam blocks (you can also cut the blocks from a 2x4.) The belt , which is 2.5" wide, attaches together with velcro. I recommend sewing the velcro to the belt as hot glue tends to peel off the velcro and vinyl.

The girth belt is made by cutting a clothsline into equal lengths, gluing the ropes together with a glue gun and then gluing a buckle to the ends. The girth belt then gets a coat of burgundy paint.

The cape is made by cutting a section of the drop cloth to measure around 27" x 36" and dying it green. It is then secured to the top of the armor backplate with a small bolt.
