Yeah the metal is awesome, and very realistic. But on a book? and also i dunno if its my rubbish vision but that bookmark looks a bit blurry to me, think its the grad.
@Erica Schoonmaker Very true, I couldn't put my finger on it before. This type of binding on a rounded spine would cause the outer edge to be concave. The edge is flat like that of a perfect bind, but then the spine needs to be flat.

I made a "Book Icon Template" freebie. You only have to change the texture image to create a completely new book. Check it out http://wp.me/1rARt

@Colin: I think the problem is the color, not the grad. It blends with the shadow.
@Diego: Maybe some dark red in the bookmark? Nice work dude. It gets me angry :P

If this didnt start as a photograph, you have the best understanding of how light penetrates the scratches of stainless steel, I have ever seen.

The pages shouldn't go all the way into the rounded part. They have something like this: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_X9TDHP5hcU0/TTqx6fJ2TRI/AAAAAAAADC4/gbkusfmTBBg/s1600/book.jpg
Otherwise all the pages wouldn't be the same size. :)

The metal looks great but the rest of it looks all wrong. The binding in the spine is completely missing, for example.

I don't like this. Metal on a book? And isn't it just a photo really? Way too realistic.

@Adam Meyer The joint doesn't look right, and there's no headband or liner which are parts used in hardcover book binding.
