Sailor/pirate early 1700s
He has a sword (how innovative pirate has a sword) and pistol one belt hoop pistol and other "Queen Anne pistol". He has red breeches, red waistcoat and leather cap lined with black cloth and faced with red cloth just like mentioned in RN Slop clothing contracts in 1706-1724 or so. Blue stockings, neck-cloth and green jacket are visible there too but they have nothing to do with RN Slop contracts so this pirate has got them from another source. The Jackets lacks buttons and that's why there is tread tied to keep it closed. He has a scabbard attached to a baldric. As I know that in the period baldrics were rarer and waist swords belts more common I have used baldrics only for few pirates.
