*LIVE STREAM BUILD* - czcams.com/video/K3vaxpBExBY/video.html - This link is to the Live Stream I did on Twitch where I build one of these shoulders. Just incase you wanted me to slow things down a lot.
Matching Body Piece / Cuirass Next? What other ARMOR would you like to see?
I was watching the Blade series again what about the armor Blade uses throughout the series and or the armor the Dracula character has? That would be a lot of work though. The other would be anything from the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. I understand this may be a path you don't walk but you did ask and I have broad enough shoulders to take a nope. Another fantastic show, I've said this before but I really appreciate being spoken to like an adult or a friend you don't bleep anything out and I guess it's because you know your audience. Amazing work and thank you so much for sharing your art with us all. As usual, all the very best from Scotland.
For armor, I think a helmet like a spangenhelm would be sweet. It would be more on the costume/larp side of things rather than sca though. For builds in general a turnshoe or boot pattern would be cool, the footwear can make or break a kit and it's usually the last thing people think about
Still waiting for the cuirass video, seen pics but no video?
I started using Citadel and Army Painter paints on my leather. I'm pleased with how well they apply and how good they look. Leadbelcher is one of my favorites.
One of the prettiest things I’ve ever seen. The workmanship is awesome.
I'm glad you've shown miniature acrylics. I have been telling everyone to avoid the leather acrylics, since Citadel and Vallejo are the absolute best.
I love your "Sports Commentary" cuts on this video! Great way to add your personality
Thanks I had a lot of fun doing this edit. More to come.
"Guess what? I'm gonna ......use a sewing machine!" I just shot coffee out my nose, and you just got another subscriber.
Haha thanks. :)
shoutout to martina from nerdforge who pioneered airbrush staining in leathercrafts.
These are dope I can't wait to build these for myself
Know THAT ---is a thing of beauty
Genuienly SO excited for this build! If these shoulders and the Gorget are anything to go off, this set is going to be beautiful! Thank you for another incredible video!
These are sweet. I just made a set with leather and chain maille using mostly your techniques. Used an old pair of hockey shoulder pads as a template. Should be good for the medieval Stanley Cup!
Another absolute banger comin outta dark horse workshop! loved it man!
“I’m gonna use a fuckin’ sewing machine” is a whole-ass vibe 😂😂😂
Hell yes it is.
Love the carving
Great work!!
Awesome build
You're getting real good at these videos man
Impressive!
Lovely piece of work there… learning atm and your work is really helpful in relation to the techniques you use. Wish I had found this interest in leather crafting 20 years ago. Now knocking on the door of 50, but I find this hobby a cathartic way to destress and chill whilst cutting, carving and hand stitching
Never too late to persue things that you find interesting. Helps keep us young and un...bored.. is unbored a word?
Very nice
Amazing and inspiring work as always!
Thank you! Cheers!
black dye ... actually, all dyes ... were expensive when leather armor was a thing.
The Knight, Baron or other royalty would be impressed with his new armor. They look geat.
I stayed up late to watch it but I guess you were up later :) Great video Mate. Cheers.
They would look amazing on my battlemage!
these tingle my cosplay crafting cravings more than a bit
LET'S GOOOOO!!!
I don't cosplay, but watching you make this incredible armor, along with your other products you have made makes me want to go to a cosplay event, and find someone my size with your handy leather work, and pretty much hit them with the blunt side of my falling axe.
And then just walk around my house in full armor for the rest of my life. 7:28
Haven't been doing leather working for very long but I can definitely identify with the sewing machine and I'm using it. After making some bags and wallets I may try some elf armor since armor is one of the first things that interested me about leather.
I love armor, glad I'm focusing on it more.. it's my jam.
Nice very nice
Looks good bud!!
Thanks! :)
I had no idea how I got to watching this, but I am and I subbed
Excellent!
Based miniature paint user.
This looks great! Most shoulder armor never looks big enough in my opinion unless it's on small females.
My stepdad was a coach builder and customizer and one of the tricks with airbrushing is to use bits of any shite laying around to use as masking when you are spraying I don't mean shite shite I mean bits of card or in our case aluminum or steel sheet to hold over the design so you can achieve a straight edge without losing the fade you get from the spray. I'm probably not explaining it properly I will try and find you on Twitter or Instagram and share a vid or two to give you an idea of what I mean. A question have you ever tried to use a tattoo gun on leather I believe some artists practice on leather, it may be another tool you could use to further express your talent. Another huge thank you and another all the best from Scotland buddy.
Your work is amazing, would totally be interested in purchasing some armor for about six people
It's all on my website, depends what you're looking for.
Can you help us figure the articulating part
DUDE! I REALLY want that sewing machine!
Understandable.
awesome build! goddamn i almost shot coffee out my nose at the sewing machine bit too funny! of course you should use your sewing machine! omg hilarious
Haha thanks. Try to add some comedy.
Simple question, need to do hardening put in the oven to be armor right?
There's a few methods, you could oven it with water, or you could wax it. I wax armor for rattan combat because it's easy, but if it was for costume I'd never wax it, and if it was for hema using water and an oven would work best. But it's a PAIN IN THE BUTT... so be careful.
Can you make / show us how to make a leather gorget collar
I have a collated gorget video for armor. You mean that?
What's the music from 00:56 to 2:27 ?? its beautiful. Also, awesome video!
What did you create for the Warcraft production?
I'm watching it now with my kids for the first time in a few years and I'm finding myself looking at the leatherwork wondering "did you make that?", "what about that one?"
Lots of armor bits. Elf stuff, some garona parts, scabbard etc. And then hours repairing the Weta plastic alliance armor
Looks awesome, as always ❤ I know shorter videos are the hot thing right now, but I actually prefer the longer tutorials with more explaining. I'm not sure I could actually build this without constantly pausing and rewatching bits 😢 But that's probably just my inexperience.
I did do a live stream beginning to end build of these shoulders, there's a pinned comment here as well as a link in the description. Also I've been thinking of doing a "Not Fancy" explanation version.
@@DarkHorseWorkshop yeah, I'll definitely check out the live version if I ever get far enough on my todo-list to make these 🤣 So many projects, so little time.
Does boiling the leather in oil make it mil make it more or less effective as armor?
You can use hot water which if we're thinking about period techniques is a more likely way to do it. There's some resources online if you dig around, I should do a video on it some time.
Hey, just tried out leather working a few days ago and while punching holes in the leather I managed to take a few good chunks out of the workbench underneath (Granted the wood is old, and I am not sure the punches are all that great) Is there a particular material that works best as a backing for the hole punching stage? Or does workbench damage kind of come with the territory?
Cutting board material from a leathercraft shop or plastic supply. I have a couple linked here. www.amazon.com/shop/darkhorseworkshop/list/25YG6U2O29ZYG
@@DarkHorseWorkshop Thank you very much!
So I purchased the plans, but tandys site only goes up to about 9oz of thickness. You think I could get away with using 7/8 for the bottom plates?
Depends on your use. For costume? You're talking about the art plates? For sure.
Do you have any advice for other people that want to learn how to make their own designs like how to plan for the shape you want when sewed together?
f@t b@st@d says = friggin awesome dude = keep up the innovative ideas ps lucky enough to pick up some armour from one of the lotr armourers with a spiralled wire edging on neck guard on shoulder protection [prevents the sword from running up the arm into neck when arms are raised] = looks good and would suit your build = how to = your choice = have fun
"so i'm going to use a fkn sewing machine" BWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA...Noice. And totally agree. Great patterns, awesome videos.
😂
😂😂😂
As a painter I was surprised on how easy it would be to switch into leather. I'm just worried about the leather cost.
It's a great canvas.
