Your geometry seems ok. Your texture could use some work. - Add grunge, dirt etc. - Add soft edges (Make some nice bakes if you have a high poly) - Add a good specular map. Hope this helps
They really have got to stop focusing on "add add add" and re-address some of the rather serious bottleneck and workflow obstacles. Subtool management, proper layers, perspective, orientation, etc. These really are not things we should be requesting this deep into an applications existence.
i think its pretty cool , maybe just redo the lighting or just try to add another color than the orange-red color you have there....try to add some purple to add more depth or any other matching color. :/
