Toy Green Army Man Halloween Costume

Step 4Prime / Paint Accessories

Prime / Paint Accessories
The helmet I used was a child's plastic army helmet.  I tried on a real army helmet at an Army Surplus, but it didn't fit as tight on my head as I thought it should.  The child's plastic army helmet fit perfectly around my head (okay it was a little tight), and it was only a few dollars.

Any toy gun or rifle will work.  I found a black machine gun at a halloween superstore.

I used a utility belt and pouches that I bought from Ebay for under five dollars.  An Army Surplus has a lot of different versions to pick from also.

Prime everything first and paint.
