Is that painted brass and copper? Your paint and metal are not reading well. Your shapes and details look great, but your material reads are off.
Also, for nasty banding in gradients in your background like that, add a small amount of noise (filter-noise-add noise, at like 1-2%) and it'll smooth it out for you nicely.
GlenGramling: No, You are awesome! Thanks bud. Ghostscape: Sweet, thanks for that banding tip! I see what you mean, I'm thinking of a couple things (subtle noise, subtle brass color variation, spec pop), any tips are welcome. By the way, really dig your work. cptSwing: Definitely, I'll test that out, thanks Swing!
It's a 1942 US Military Spotting Scope. C&C welcome.
