Gorgeous! The only thing that looks a little strange is the bag looks far more realistic than the gold bits. Maybe add some subtle texture and saturate them a bit?
Liam - you're totally right about the gold bits. I've never been totally satisfied with them and continue to mess with them. I've been getting some good pointers from @ekindesigns and @jonnotie on how to get them looking better, and they are right in line with your suggestions. I think I have a more goldtastic version soon.
I like it, but I'd actually like to see the metal bits with either a less-pronounced version, or, actually, silver as the base metal. (To be honest, I'd love a black leather with silver combo, that'd be sweet.) But FANTASTIC graphic Gordon, as always. Keep serving us great material.
Similar to what Carson said, the buckle needs less light on it. The lighting fades down the satchel, and you can see that in the leather. The buckle, however, remains almost fully lit and it may need to be dimmed just slightly.
Okay - the shots are getting a little bit crammed now! I had real trouble trying to fit everything into this shot and keep it from getting cluttered. Needless to say, I finally gave up! The metal bits have been reworked and I am much happier with them now, and I also think the smaller versions are looking sharper. Thanks for all the great input thus far, and keep it coming - it's really helping me!

Wow look at the texture! If it wasn't for the brass badge and strap holder I'd have said it was a photo!

This looks like awesome, dipped in win, covered with a fine layer of crumbled amazingness and deep-fried in excellence.

I don't mind the gold bits as they are, but I'm sure whatever you do to improve them will work out for the best.

The detail!

Just a thought.
