Here's a question I have, not sure if the answer relies on opinion or if there is a definite direction to take.  What should be shown in a particular render of a prop?  I have seen some other people show their textures along with the meshes, often overlayed and cut to show layers of diffuse, metal, roughness, or spec, and normals.  I wonder when it's a good idea to show the textures at all, if it's always a plus, or if it's rarely necessary.  Showing the high poly mesh and showing the triangle count is also something I am not sure is necessary or not.  My current renders show low poly shaded renders and wireframe renders, no textures or high polys.  I would like advice on whether that is enough or if it is better to also show those extras.

Here is a sample of some of my works to show what I mean.

Remove that blue border or make the border just a flat dark grey color.

Correct me if I am wrong, but are you using marmoset to render those? 
If you are just use the viewer exporter and a beauty shot of the piece.. That way whoever is viewing your stuff can choose what they want to see. 
Looking good though!
