The Blacksmith: A Muscular Village Blacksmith Hammers Glowing Iron on the Anvil — Sparks Fly in His Smoky Forge
Recommended materials
This is how it could look
Classic medieval blacksmith at work. Setting: a medieval village forge — a stone building with a large fire pit or furnace (the forge) where the fire glows orange and red. The blacksmith: a large, muscular man wearing a heavy leather apron, thick leather gloves, and a headband. He is standing at the anvil (a large iron block on a wooden stump), swinging a heavy hammer down onto a piece of glowing orange metal (perhaps a horseshoe or sword blade). The impact sends sparks flying in all directions. Tools visible: tongs (for holding hot metal), various hammers, a bellows (for blowing air to increase the fire), finished horseshoes hanging on a hook, swords or knives cooling in a water barrel nearby. Iron filings and scraps on the floor. The forge fire glows warmly.
