Black Tank Top

Both male and female grunts are clad in black fabric shirts with a large X across the chest. To create the perfect slash across your tank top, insert cardboard inside the shirt to stretch it. Make sure you spread the shirt well before printing to avoid the paint from cracking. Using masking tape, place two strips diagonally across the shirt where your torso will be. Adding two more strips will form the X shape.

Check the intersection of these tapes, making sure it is clear. Do the same on the back of the shirt.

Paint It White

Using white fabric paint, follow the trails of the tape and paint it white on both sides to create the distinct X mark of the grunts costume. Make sure one side is dry before flipping it over to paint the opposite side.

No Tank Top? No Problem! Use A Crew Neck T-Shirt

Paint the collar of your crew neck shirt, layer it with paint several times to create the white edge effect on the neckline. Remove sleeves to turn it into a tank top.

Elastic Alternative

If you have no time to paint your costume, you can use a white elastic band sewed to the sides of your black tank top. Angle it diagonally across your torso so it can form the X shape.

Team Skull Necklace

Google searches and videos on how to make the grunts necklace may give you several options on how to make one. The necklace can also be drawn or printed to create the pattern of the teams’ logo.

Use craft or EVA foam to shape it into form. A necklace chain can be used to complete the accessory. Ensure that it is securely attached to the back of the logo by hot gluing it.

Socks

Team Skull grunts use black socks with white lining at the edge. To do this, wear the sock yourself or place something round at the socks’ opening to stretch it. Stick a tape around the sock, an inch below the opening. Use white fabric paint to create the border. Do not remove the round object until the paint is thoroughly dry.

Wristband

Wristband

Team Skull cosplay material is fairly easy to gather since it is mostly done in a black and white theme. The wristband is no exception. To create one, measure both your wrist and forearms. Add an inch and a half to the measurement which will be allocated for your velcro. Place a tape about an inch and from the edge of the fabric where your wrist and forearms will be.

Use white paint to line both edges. Dry off before attaching the velcro to the unpainted side of the fabric. You can use glue or sew it to secure your armband from falling. Now you’re done with your adjustable wristband.

Elastics

Another way to create your armband is to use black and white elastic bands that are sewed together to form the white-edged armband. Doing it this way can give you the stretch that you need when you wear or remove it from your wrist.

Bandanas

Both male and female grunts sport a bandana to cover their faces. To make one, have your black fabric and masking tape ready. Use the masking tape to edge your bandana and do the signature ‘teeth’, making sure it will fall at the sides of your nose under your eyes. Paint over the masking tape and let dry.

Hat

Find a white beanie and paint it with a crescent and circle. Use black marker or paint. Let it dry and you got yourself a cool TS hat.

Shorts

Female Grunts

Female grunts can use ripped white shorts to accentuate their costume. A black leg band with a zigzag white pattern will accentuate the costume.

Male Grunts

Male grunts go for long black shorts that reach the knee. A zigzag black pattern can be found on the sides over the white lining.

Shoes

All skull grunts are into white, high-cut shoes with black socks.
