Could anyone recommend any product here in Daz Store, containing any prop resembling a good old officer's cane or swagger stick, please? That is not a walking cane, rather a short, straight stick.

I may have some in my library, but it is becoming harder and harder to search through everything. *sighs*

    A lot of the examples I found in google images looked simple enough to make from Daz primitives, provided you don't need a super close-up view.

    Thank you, but that is way above my level of knowledge of Daz Studio and my skills. I can kitbash from existing products, pose the environment, figures and props, and change shaders and lighting. That is about it.

    I think I have found a usable one in https://www.daz3d.com/scandalous-addon-for-infamous-v4

    I am going to try some shaders and I will see how good it will look.

    If you know how to add/move objects around in a scene & scale them up/down in size, then you're quite capable of adding primitives(cubes, spheres, etc.) and manipulating them in the scene.

    Here's a quick attempt at a swagger stick made from primitives. The stick itself is a tall thin cylinder, the silver tip is another cylinder, the knob on the top is a sphere perched on a cone. Group them together, apply appropriate shaders to each bit, and you're done.

    I do know the feeling of DAZ skills being daunting to acquire, but also the feeling that you can do anything once you've mastered them. Pretty awesome! And primitives are a good place to start - with those and the Alignment tool, you're going to love what you can add to your scenes. Anything from props like your cane to architecture.

    But if you're not ready to go there yet... try this:  https://www.daz3d.com/el-comandante-officer-outfit-for-genesis-3-female-s

    Thank you. I like the outfit, how have I never noticed it? It would be a great kitbashing source, wishlisted.yes
