Hello everyone, this is my first post here, it’s a somewhat old work of mine, the first time I tried to do something like this, usually I do sculpting and character art.
This here was an attempt at more of a local angle to the classic 80s desk, late 80s in some kid’s room in Milan in this case. An amstrad CPC 464 ( my very first home-computer ) and a few products and posters from that era, some exact some other, I think, plausible. Modeled in Blender rendered in Cycles.

Perfectly captures what our desks looked like growing up in the 80s. Makes me nostalgic!
Great modelling and I really like the subtly different textures of the materials, for instance how the cassette deck cover is a little more reflective than the case of the computer. Very neat!

@thomassturm really thank you for your words, I wanted to go for a nostalgic feeling while trying to stay true to a european/italian situation. My material and texture game still need practice but I find Cycles can get some nice results even with simple shaders and few maps.
