For both of those details I (and the stickers on the front of the base) I
used and image map.  I then evaluate the image map as a function and use it
to control both the pigment and normals. For the normals, it is an average
pattern of the normal define the raised look of the lettering and the
different bumpiness of the lettering and glass.  I can post some source if
