How to Create an Jake Sullivan Avatar Costume

Avatar was a movie that had characters who fought in order to survive. They were tall, strong and relentless when it came to fighting. One character in the movie was named Jake Sullivan. He played a key role in the movie and helped it to sell a record setting number of tickets. It is possible to dress up as him for Halloween by following a few quick and easy steps.


  1. Buy white jeans, white sneakers and a long-sleeved white shirt. These items can be purchased at any clothing store. Make sure that the shirt is not too loose because it needs to fit tightly on you. 

  2. Buy cans of light blue and dark blue spray paint. Spray the light blue paint onto every part of the shirt and pants. Wait for them to completely dry. Next, spray dark blue, horizontal lines onto the clothing. Make sure that the lines only cover part of the clothes and you can still see light blue on most of them. 

  3. Spray the sneakers with the light blue can of spray paint. Next, spray dark blue lines onto them. Leave them to dry in the sunlight.  

  4. Buy light blue and dark blue body paint. Put light blue paint onto your hands, face and neck. Next, put dark blue stripes over these body parts. Make sure that the lines on your face are vertical and not horizontal. 

  5. Buy two leather belts that are dark brown. Try to buy the type of belts that are woven together and have many small pieces of leather in them. You will put one belt around your waist and the other one will be on your right should and wrapped around your left torso. 

  6. Purchase a black wig from a costume or a beauty store. Cut it until it is about medium length. You will wear this wig with your costume. 

  7. Purchase a yard stick from a dollar store. Paint this item black except for the top 4 inches of it. Paint the top part of the rule white. This will resemble a spear that Jake Sullivan used to fight in the movie.
