How to put it together
- 1
Put on the olive green tank top and tuck it securely into your camouflage cargo pants.
- 2
Lace up your black combat boots and tuck the cuffs of your pants into the tops of the boots.
- 3
Slip on the black tactical chest harness, adjusting the straps so it sits snugly over your chest and shoulders.
- 4
Tie one yellow bandana tightly around your left bicep, letting the knot's ends hang slightly.
- 5
Tie the second yellow bandana around your right shin, just above the top of your boot.
- 6
Put on the black fingerless gloves and secure any tactical waist belts if your harness includes them.
- 7
Grab your toy pickaxe prop and practice your favorite victory royale emote to complete the look.
Makeup & hair
Style your hair into a short, blonde buzz cut or use a temporary blonde hair color spray. Keep makeup minimal with a clean face, or add a few light smudges of brown face paint on your cheeks to look like dirt from a battle.
