Recreating a Legend: Crafting a Screen-Accurate Replica of Aragorn's Bracers from The Lord of the Rings

Aragorn’s Leather Bracers from The Lord of the Rings – Custom Replica As craftsmen, some projects are more than just orders – they are a chance to pay tribute to cinematic history. Aragorn’s leather bracers, adorned with the White Tree of Gondor, are among the most iconic pieces of armor from The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Our goal was not to make a simple cosplay prop, but to deliver a…

Spring in White Orchard: Handcrafted Leather Gear for the Witcher’s Path

“A good blade saves your life in the heat of battle. But a sturdy baldric saves it every single day, ensuring an elixir is at your fingertips rather than lost at the bottom of a saddlebag. Yet witchers, as usual, pay gladly for the former and pinch pennies on the latter.”— From conversations between Ort the Tanner and his clients Spring in White Orchard bloomed as if the long, bitter winter had…

Adapting the TM-Earp Hat from Destiny 2 for Everyday Wear

In 2023, I completed a challenging project: bringing a digital asset from Destiny 2 into the real world. The main goal was to preserve the signature aesthetic of the TM-Earp set while adapting its exaggerated “in-game” proportions for a functional, wearable piece. 1. Design and Patternmaking In the game, the character wears this hat over a combat helmet, making its original proportions…

Custom Hunter’s Hat v.2: Where Bloodborne Meets Arknights

At Svetliy Sudar Workshop, we always cherish the opportunity to push the boundaries of our signature models.

From Concept to Sketch Every complex bespoke project begins with a concept. We prepared a…

Crafting Realistic Hat Teeth from Leather (Legendary Alligator Gambler’s Hat Red Dead Redemption II)

The teeth for Arthur’s hat turned out so well, we decided to dedicate a separate post to them. The blanks were glued together from several layers of veg tanned leather, then shaped and painted with acrylic. We used both matte and glossy varnish to imitate enamel.Here you can see one “imposter” (a fox fang), which served as a reference for the textures. We’ll show you the finished hat very…

Making Lambert's Costume (The Witcher 3) - Part 1 Fabric Rough Draft

In the summer of 2025, we were working on a complex project based on one of our favorite universes: Lambert’s costume from The Witcher 3.We needed to sew a vest, a jacket, and pants. Since the jacket’s design was new to us and we needed to fit the vest and jacket precisely to the customer’s figure and to each other, we first had to sew fabric roughs. For drafts, we usually choose the simplest…

Chi Long 螭龍 (Demon Dragon) Accessory Set inspired by Tian guan ci fu

At the customer’s request, we changed the design of one of our works (larp set for the game Thief), removed unnecessary elements and added contrast.The set consists of a pair of short fingerless gloves and a pair of bracers. First of all, we had to accurately construct a…

Karl Heisenberg hat (Resident Evil Village) - version for everyday wear without aging

In 2022, we made an exact replica of Karl’s hat for cosplay (you can find photos and description here). Then another customer contacted us and wanted a hat like this for everyday wear. It needed to be new, without creases or scuffs, so it would age beautifully with wear. For everyday wear, we always suggest not only sewing in a lining, but also adding a soft leather sweatband for even more…

Cirilla Leather belt with rivets and brass plate - The Witcher 4

We created this belt inspired by the Witcher 4 teasers, which gave us our first glimpse of Ciri’s new look. For the belt, we chose thick, dense leather. The pattern was made up of rivets of different sizes. The plate was handcrafted from a sheet of brass. The belt is 4 cm wide. The total length of the belt from buckle to tip is 138 cm. The closure holes range from 83 to 105 cm. You can find…

Yharnam Hunter Leather Hat (Inspired Bloodborne)

We were delighted to finally add this hat to our portfolio. We were also very fortunate to have received a request for it for everyday wear. This is the first hat in the Bloodborne collection to feature a lining with sweatband. We hadn’t tackled this hat before because we always thought of it as a simple tricorn. But while working on the patterns, we realized they actually had little in…

The Good Hunter (Bloodborne)

This set came about spontaneously… At one point, our Workshop simultaneously contained Lady Maria’s hat, which we had made to order, the first model of the gorget, which had already been purchased by that time, and trial bracers, which we made for our Bloodborne sets. Before the hat and gorget ship to their respective owners, we managed to take a few photos with this character.The photo shoot…

A new addition to our Bloodborne collection!We drafted this gorget back in late fall, but it wasn’t until winter that we had time to work on it. This is the gorget from the Yharnam Hunter set v.1.This is more our vision of this accessory than a replica from the game, but we wanted to try it out in this version. Furthermore, the piece turned out to be unique: we used limited-edition hide from…

Swarm-That-Walks (Pathfinder) set

The Swarm-That-Walks (Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous) is undoubtedly one of the most atmospheric autumn sets we’ve ever made. A warm, lined fabric cloak, a belted gorget, and a molded leather cape create a multi-layered, dark look.We decided to use suede for both the fabric and leather trim. To create a cohesive look, we hand-dyed the suede to match the hardware.The decorative overlays are…
