Very good.  I can almost hear the hum of the amplifier...

I think the metallic pin looks more like grey plastic.  Try modifying
the highlight and putting radial microscopic scratches resulting from
the manufacturing process.  As thers have mentioned, the kink in the
wire is a bit too severe.

I like the cable, how did you do it?  

The metal part of the plug looks very old and tarnished, so on that 
table you need coffe stains, some ash strewen about, an old casset 
tape in bits etc. 

The reason I never get anything done is because I keep getting new
ideas, what an inspirational lot you all are:-)

    Hmm... the radius of the bend in the wire makes it look like either the
wire is -much- softer than it should be, or that the plug is -much- larger
than it should be.

    Otherwise the modeling is great. Comparing it to what I have here, it is
almost perfect in dimensions and textures.

Thank you...

Plastic is what I was going for...needs some more work I suppose....

Thank you...all modelling was done in Rhino, imported into Moray and
textured there.. The wire is a spline with a pipe extruded around it.

I like the idea about a tape...shall try that next

Looks nice!  My only complaint is that the metal looks too "foggy".  If you
make it a little more reflective, that should do the trick!
