Alex Agricola - Founder of Black Raven Armoury & The Academy
When I started out, there was no internet, so I was reliant on books and hands on experimentation to develop my skills....
Even now 20+ years & thousands of projects on, it’s STILL a challenge to find detailed professional guidance on leatherwork for armour & costumes... (or at least the juicy bits are taken out !! )
Whis is WHY 5 years ago I began sharing my learning and expertise with people like yourself.
Ask any of my students... From Day 1, you have me personally on tap to ask anything !! No matter the question, if its in my power to guide you, I will.
