Markward Belt Shield

Mytholon Belt Shields are sold as singles, excluding belt.

Mytholon belt shields can be painted in groups colours, insignia or heraldry to show the membership to a certain group. Made from 1,2 mm steel, we offer them in our favorite plate armour series now. Matching the "Markward" series, this shield is decorated with the typical cut edges on the top. It is worn on a belt by using the two loops on the top to hoist it through there. Naturally it can be worn as a tasset, when fastened on the upper thigh. This way you will have an additional plate armour piece.

The belt shields, just like arm shields, cry out to be painted, modded and to be combined with existing clothing. This is, where your creativity and immagination comes into place.

Talking of creativity: We suggest to clean the shield with Acetone prior to painting it. Afterwards just sand it with a paper of 600 grid. Use some automobile colour primer as the colour-matching foundation. When the foundation is fully dried, you should sand it again and apply a second layer of colour. Now is the time, where you can paint your details, like heraldry, animals or writings with weatherproof acrylic paint.

THE WARRIORS OF THE NORTH SHALL NEVER SURRENDER

Epic Armoury’s Dreki Belt Shields are a set of tassets that can be paired with your own leather belt to act as detachable tassets- these robust rust covered steel plates efficiently protect the the front of your thighs and their detachable nature ensures unbridled--but protected--movement. With overlapping plates, rivets and its lean form, you can feel like a fantasy norsemen, braving the harsh wilderness and slaying ancient dragons among snow covered peaks.

The Dreki set has two colours, the primary being a Matte Polish and the secondary being Epic Dark, to highlight different aspects of the Dreki armour and again show its Nordic inspired roots. Made of 1 mm thick polished mild steel and top-grain leather straps and fittings, this armour piece is built to withstand the abuse of a LARP or reenactment with regular leather and metal armour care.

INSPIRATION

• Based in fantasy inspired Nordic Armour such as Skyrim,Dark Souls and modern depictions in other fictional media

I am no longer amazed by how quickly a man will justify his change of heart when a spear is levelled his way.

This stunning set of hard, black leather Shadow Armor Tassets is what Stygian warriors need as they head out into the night. This leg armour is made from a series of segmented full-grained leather plates designed in true drow fashion. This armor is made to protect your upper legs and thighs in combat and bring your unique Larp character to life. Each tasset possesses two buckled straps that allow you to easily fasten it to your shadow armor or waist belt. Adjust the leather tassets to fit your form, thus granting you a full range of movement in combat or when sneaking around in the darkness.

The belt shield of our “Lambert” series is an accessory you don’t necessarily need to wear in combination with a suit of armour. It is ideally suited for being used to display your coat of arms or group affiliation. Its broad loops allow you to comfortably attach it to your belt. The loops can be rotated to change their position, allowing you to attach the shield to a chainmail shirt or in a similar position.

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.

The rivets emphasise the armour's shape and are a nice detail. The rerebrace is attached to the spaulder using the downward-pointing strap end, where its height may be adjusted. We recommend wearing a padded vest/gambeson underneath the armour to increase wearing comfort and to better protect yourself against injuries or chafing. 

DON’T HIT BELOW THE BELT!

“I tried to gut it! Figured it might have a soft spot beneath that cursed armour. Well, I was wrong or too slow! Doesn’t matter. That day I lost both my hand and rondel, but at least I live to tell about it. The constant pain in my crippled arm is a reminder to you all. Never fight these ruinous monsters unless you plan to die!”

The Marauder Belt Shields provide unyielding, ruinous protection, and is made from mild steel in Epic Dark and Epic Grey colours to emphasise a sinister and unholy origin. They are designed with star-shaped place-holder screws that are replaceable with mountable accessories such as the Mountable Demon Horns.

“Firga smiled grimly, detached her left tasset and held it up for us to see the visible damage made by the beast. Fortunately, the Dire Scorpion wasn’t mature, but its tail poison was still corrosive enough to make amputation the only salvation against an agonising death. Firga then told us that one of her previous associate rangers had sold his armour tassets for a few tavern silver coins. Now he rested below the dust.”

The Ranger Tassets from Epic Armoury are characterised by a plain bottom piece under a diagonal leather weave. The tassets are easily attached to a torso armour or belt using straps and cotton strings with pointy brass aglets. This armour piece is part of the Ranger Complete Armour Set but can also be applied to other armour pieces for individual variation.

The name is a bit misleading.

It does protect your head, just not the one you're meant to think with.

Without tiring and with the constant assistance of the necromancers, you will personally see that every one of the mortal settlers be vanquished.

The best defence in life means nothing if it is eaten away by time and the elements, or even attacked from the inside.
And so it is with your own armour!
Humidity, expansion and contraction in the heat, UV radiation, rain, and the withering blows of your enemies all conspire to expose your armour to rust, but worse yet, your very own precious bodily fluids conspire to corrode it from the inside with their impurities and corruption! (which is why we only ever drink pure grain alcohol or rainwater)

You could coat your armour (and other metal objects) in a regular run of the mill lubricant, but many of them are actively hydrophobic. Great for metal but terrible for leather, cotton and other organic materials!

Lanox MX4 is a lanolin rich lubricant, and lanolin is the oil that is naturally produced by sheep to prevent them from shrinking in the rain and generally remain weather proof! It is superior to many artificial compounds and does not damage leathers or organic fibres.
