Heavy Infantry (Part One)

Today begins a discussion on creating a Heavy Infantry impression for Live Action Role Play. Thorwald starts by explaining what the Heavy Infantry is in relation to the light and medium infantry and covers (no pun intended) the legs with the Epic Armoury Blackened Balthazar Full Leg Guards.
In addition Epic Armoury;s Epic Dark Founds and Tassets are shown as well as a mail skirt to provide total leg protection from the Heavy Infantry.


Stay tuned for further videos on the Heavy infantry!

Mytholon product review!

We got a box in the mail the other day, full of goodies from our friends from Mytholon. The order consisted of trousers, doublet, coif and cap. Enough to make an entire new outfit!

Thorwald talks about the company, Mytholon, and reviews each of the items.



The miniature wargame Warhammer is the basis for several larps in Europe and so it is only fitting that Thorwald joins in on the fun.

Medium Infantry

Thorwald discusses putting your armor together for Bicolline, creating a medium infantry impression. Using the basic costume toolkit of boots, pants and tunic Thorny adds a light padded jacket, riveted aluminum mail, plate lower arm defenses to build the impression.



The pants were Medieval Renaissance Pirate Lace-up Pants {Chocolate}off of Amazon for $38.00 They have a drawstring waist and laces on the sides- made from a semi-stretchy cloth. Not sure If we recommend these as we don't think they'll last one on the field but they are ok for light cos-play or LARPs with limited combat.

The tunic is Epic Armoury's Basic tunic in brown and black for $40.00. This is a great base piece to create a nice looking tunic with the additions of some coloured trim at the collar and sleeve cuffs.

The mail is from Kult of Athena : Hauberk - Dome Riveted Round Rings and Alternating Flat Rings
$197.95

The plate arm defenses are Epic Armoury's Dark Bazuband set for $84.00

PRODUCT REVIEWS!

 This week we will publish about four videos on various things. Today we are talking about two items we recently got in at The Larp on the Borderlands, The Calimacil Crezter Dagger and the Mytholon Ansgar shirt.


We've decided to break the videos up into smaller pieces to speed up loading times as all together we made about an hour and a half worth of video.

So- here is the first part.

Enjoy!
