Hey, all! I'm working on a 1950s gas pump for class and am looking for any crits or suggestions anyone may have before getting too far into it.

That last one is the most recent, and is the same as the first but with the dents added. As for ref, I'm working from a few different images depending on the quality and angles, etc. but these are the main two.

Why is the hose in the floor??
Its looking cool tho, keep it up!
I'm not sure how you're doing this prop. Is it a 50's gas pump in the 50's or a 50's gas pump as it would look now after 50 or so years? If it's the first I think that there's too much wear and tear, if not then it looks great!
Raul, yeah I've been deviating from the ref quite a bit. I'm kind of at the point of no going back with my wires, etc. as I only have a week of the semester left and 5 classes other than modeling. I really should have thrown that up much sooner.
AshleyTayles, yeah this isn't going to be used in any type of environment, so I decided that maybe the hose on the floor gave it a little more character? I'm not so sure now haha. But yeah, it's definitely not a new pump. As it is currently, I'd say it's somewhere between the 50s and now, which I suppose is sort of a vague place to be. I have another week to work the textures more and push the idea so here's hoping!

Off to class -- thanks again, everyone!
Looks solid, good job.
Most recent screencaps from Unreal and my diffuse/specs.
Aside from the usual scratches and grime I've added a sticker to the bare side to break up all that gray space and tried to vary the color of the pump handle a bit.
