"Does this _look_ decent"

too small to tell
- grunttt0
yes.

might need more shiny-ness to make it look like metal. but it's kinda hard to tell without seeing it in some sort of context.

looks like some sort of frame to me... like antonelli said you might want to add texture or reflection of some sort but otherwise id say you got what you wanted

You know, that image is what I was sent to base the shape off of. Where is it from?
I can't really do the inlay in the 7px space that I have, so I am just roughing it up. And yeah, it does need more highlights, dodge dodge dodge!

Ha. I went out and bought some to copy, but they liked that image the best.
I suppose everyone uses google for these sorts of things.

Can't you just cut it out from the original image - if you want a metal look?
- myobie0
I suppose. But I needed to make some modifications so I just made the shape in Illy and then worked on the pixel dirt and roughness in pshop.

Show me the whole comp, the lighting looks off though

I find with these sort of things the best solution is to just scan the actual photo corners, you'll get way better results.
Otherwise it just looks like you Photoshoped it.

I agree with the scanning. I am working on some other examples with this sort of stuff.
Thanx for the comments.
