Thanks Loki, there's a lot of very useful information there. I actually 
spent fairly little time modelling, but battled for days and days to 
fiddle with textures, lighting and camera position--all of which I 
totally redid countless times. Mostly I was poking around in the dark, 
with a little gut-feel here and there, interspersed with the occasional 
tid-bit of useful information that I could find. I sacrificed detail to 
play with textures and lighting, both of which I am fairly clueless about.

The libraries where I live have limited good information on photography 
and such, and the cost of importing good books on the subject is 
prohibitive, so thank you again for the great input; which shall be duly 
filed in my growing library of useful information.
