Looks really nice indeed. For the top most pushpin-like part can use some radial gradients for a polished metal sort of look. Also, I think the shadow doesn't need to be this blurred. Other than those, pretty nice !
I agree with Prathyush on the top part, that could use some gradients. What I think could also really help is making those 1px strokes (like the the top one on the bell and where the edge of the wooden part is) less hard. I think that would make it a bit more realistic. Nice tough on the gradient in the engraved logo, and on the shadow of the top part on the bell, that's a great eye for detail there!
Hey Steph!
Awesome Illustration, The wood looks really nice. I think you could make this pop with adding more darker grey silver highlights and shadows than whiter highlights. My advice is look at as many pictures of bells as possible, and really study the sheen highlights and shadows on the metal. Good work!
i like the bell part, well done on soft metal.
i think the outlines on the top handle and bell are a bit off, giving a cartoony feeling. while other object insist on realism.

I have been staring at this for far too long and can no longer tell if it looks good. Please help!

I'd also slide that top pin and its base back. perspective looks a little odd. Otherwise, very cool!
