Early 18th Century English Dragoon Pistol for DAZ Studio 3D Model

Up for your consideration is an historicaly faithful recreation of an early 18th Century English dragoon pistol set up by Sibley in 1707. With its user and resource friendly 2k textures, its a perfect candidate for baroque era historical scenes, pirate and rogue adventures, or just about anything requiring an imposing vintage firelock.

The pistol's textures are divided by material type: brass, flintstone. iron barrel, iron (Including the stamped bits on the lock), leather, wood dark and wood light. These are set deliberately light to allow users to effortlessly darken and tweak tone, surface bump and sheen to taste using DAZ Surfaces sliders without substituting in high end resource gobbling tectures to achieve eye catching results. The pistol in the promo image was set up in this fashion in seconds. For those unable to resist the max, this pistol responds well to added input. I have used wood textures from Rendernode along with stone, metal, and leather textures from DAZ on this pistol for years before these newer, better 2K textures essentially eliminated the urge.

The second and third images compare a tweaked version (DAZ sliders only) against the base model provided.

The last image shows this pistol using upgraded textures. Sort of my gig and absolutely lovely, particularly the flint (a bit too much bump) and the walnut stock, but unnecessary for any scene lacking this level of closeup.

The pistol cock and frizzen are poseable using the twist slider in DAZ Parameters.

As this asset is free, use it as you wish within the bounds of common sense. Just load her up with the usual set of three DAZ files and off you go.

It would be a great honor to see this thing used in a great scene.

A special thanks to precogplasma; without his skill and patience, this asset would not exist.
