So, what colour is Drake's shirt ?





Grey ?
Military green ?
Sand ?
Beige ?
Cream ?

Need to know urgently for an upcoming cosplay expo

Dirt covered beige would be my guess, with an off-white long sleeved T-shirt underneath.
Best bet would be to match fabric colour to the picture or get something close and distress it to match.
Tea is often a good cheap way to distress/stain, get cotton, not a man made fibre or blend for best staining.
To get the lighter splashes on the abdomen, bleach solution, ie get some bleach dilute it with water splash it on leave for a min then soak it in lots of water, then stick it in a wash (no soap) on it's own, bleach gives some good effects and ware patterns but if you go too heavy or leave too long you can damage the fibres.
Roll it around in a bucket with pebbles and sand for a while to "age" it.

Thanks Pob. I am actually not looking for s detailed match

Just looking for the base colour.
And, I can't seem to find a grandad shirt of the right colour.

So, do you think I should buy a white t-shirt and soak it with tea in a bucket ?

Ok, how's your sewing skills?
Two long sleeved t-shirts, one beige (or as close as you can get) one white.
on the beige one, cut down from the neck, my guess from the pictures about 6 inches, (you should sew the edges to re-hem them, simple way here is fold the edges over slightly and sew) then sew some buttons onto one side.
Buy a box of cheap teabags, put them in a jug with boiling water to make a very strong tea mix.
lay the t-shirt flat on something you don't mind damaging, eg outside on some concrete path or similar, poor the tea mix over the bottom, splatter it about a bit so it's not all in a blob, you can drop the tea bag on too to make darker spots.
Then just leave it for a day or so.
Hang it up to dry, don't wash.
You can create some more variation by getting some house hold bleach mixing it to about 1 part bleach to 4 or 5 parts water, again lay the tea-shirt (see what I did there ) down and drip and splash the bleach mix on, if the colour starts fading too fast poor on a load load of water to dilute it and you need to add more water to the bleach mix. or if it's not fading much add some more bleach.
Leave until the colour has faded to the level you want then quickly soak the tea-shirt in cold water (bucket or just fill a sink ready, wring it out and re-soak it a couple of times, then stick it in a washing machine on it's own on a spin only cycle.

its a brown army Henley shirt with a cream jumper underneath.

just wear it constantly until the cosplay expo, then you'll get the authentic stains and smells no need to stain with tea.
