Nobody ever said that being a soldier was easy. But he took that chance when he grabbed a helmet from a dead soldier, alongside some warm clothes and the promise of food. Somehow, he’d ended up spending the next five years as a member of this mercenary company, and even though he was discovered early on, he’d become one of them. But today was a challenging day. His helmet had absorbed most of the sword blow, and he’d been knocked unconscious while all his comrades had fallen. And though his ears rang like the warped tower bells, he’d waited before following the scoundrels until they made camp. These arrogant bastards were in for a surprise. Beneath his helmet, he grimaced like a wolf on the hunt.

The helmet features an adjustable visor equipped with a secure locking mechanism, allowing for easy transition between full protection and comfort, depending on the needs of the wearer. This is especially effective when paired with the Renegade Choker, as the helmet covers the upper part of the face, head, and back of the neck while leaving the throat and lower face accessible. It is fitted comfortably with a chin strap and removable padding, ensuring that it remains both secure and comfortable during use.

INSPIRATION

• Based on orc costuming, which is a creature whose earliest references are found in Old English and Anglo-Saxon sources, such as in Beowulf and in 16th century Italian folktales

The "Rikomer" plate armor is the brother of our "Dragomir" armor. Elaborately manufactured, it consists of a large number of lames and elements that, when combined, result in an extraordinary armor that can hardly be more agile. Every part from Rikomer is carefully flanged and coordinated with one another. Unlike "Dragomir", this armor is not decorated with beads and thus has an uncompromising, brutal look that contrasts with the finely shaped parts. Rikomer impresses with its design and the masterful execution that makes this armor so unique. It is also a more affordable than its brother "Dragomir".

Armor like this is usually only available as a custom-made product and we had to fiddle a long time before we could get it ready for serial production. Of course, the fit must and can be optimized here and there by careful bending, but we have designed the armor in such a way that it can be carried into the field with maximum comfort. The individual parts are burnished to protect them from rust, making the Rikomer burnished particularly suitable for dark knights and fighters of chaos.

We generally recommend wearing a gambeson and arm and leg paddings under plate armor. This significantly improves wearing comfort and protection.

This pair of tassets matches the Kendra leather corsage for ladies, which features a pair of D-rings on either side of the hip to which these tassets can be attached. The tassets consist of two parts: they take up the design of the leather bodice and continue it.

These curved tassets go well with other leather armour sets such as Morgana. Of course, the tassets can also be attached separately to an already existing armour – your imagination's the limit.

Like all products made by Fucina del Drago, these tassets are hand-crafted from high-quality cowhide leather in Italy.

You think about dreaming it, we will take care of making it happen.

Our work briefly translates into this: starting from an idea, a sketch, a story and transforming those smoky lines into an object that can be used in the context (whether strictly historical or fantasy) for which it was designed.

Design therefore, at the base of each project, modulated on the budget of each client.

Realization, with a particular attention to detail and real use (not only display but rather mainly products made to be worn, used, lived).

Assistance, so that everything that has already been created does not suffer the damage of time or the wear and tear of years of use.

Black Dragon is our brand for the design and construction of weapons, armor and props oriented to LARP, Cosplay and film productions.

These are articles made of materials such as plastazote, evazote, resins and the like, used to give shape and substance to the wildest dreams of every designer or to reproduce objects not otherwise available because of fantasy.

It was born from the meeting between the Fucina del Drago and Black Forge, an artisan workshop that has been active for years in the LARP and Cosplay sector at national and international level which, in February 2020, joined forces in the common goal of expanding their work and their skills to offer them on a wider market also linked to film productions.

From this collaboration, projects related to TV series have been born that have benefited from years of experience and tests on materials, at the same time highlighting on the one hand the absolute reachable realism and on the other the possibility of truly shaping the imagination to give shape to things otherwise unattainable.

From the feedback obtained, the push that led us to strongly believe in this new project was born to the point of creating a brand dedicated only to this type of product.

A fundamental component of our work remains attentive listening to the customer and continuous contact in order to be certain not only of the achievement of the final result, but also and above all of full satisfaction: from this point of view it makes no difference that you are a live role player, a cosplayer or a film production company, we will still be able to accompany you from the preparatory sketch to the finished product in order to give you the most precise possible idea of ​​what we are making for you.
