looks good, overall!

but the highlights are too uniform (green), add some roughness variation like fingerprints or something.

the scratches are way too small in scale (blue), makes the lighter feel huge. same on the inside piece.

the text and embosses should catch some dirt or oxidation, to my mind. if you're working in substance look into using anchors combined with a dirt layer or something.

Hey man! I see what you mean about the highlights and edgewear, I definitely need to do another pass on the textures.
thanks for the feedback!
