ok, in 1975 Don Post Studios made a Captain Kirk/William Shatner mask. When they were making HalloweeN they grabbed a couple masks off the store shelf. A clown, and a Kirk. They painted the Kirk appliance white, cut the eyes bigger, ripped off the sideburns and sprayed black spray paint into the hair.
So the H1 and H2 Myers masks came from a 1975 Kirk mask.
The coveralls according to Dick Warlock and Debra Hill were a very dirty Spruce Green. On screen in shadows and with the ever prevelant blue light they always shine on Myers, the coveralls looked blue.
In H2 most of the black paint had run out of the hair and made the hair look a dirty brownish/red, and alot of that black paint ended up smeared all over the face of the mask, which is one of the reasons it\'s so filthy looking.
So yeah, Kirk mask painted white w/ green coveralls.
Looks blue on screen and his hair looks black.
Either look will work fine, most people don\'t notice or don\'t care anyways. Besides, no matter how much time you spend making the most screen accurate costume, somone will still call you Freddy Voorhees, Or Jason Myers or something.
If you\'re anal you want the details, (like what kind of boots did Dick Warlock wear?) If you just want any old Myers costume, a white mask and blue coveralls will do ya just fine.
