This week on my hard-disc I found an old model of an mp3 player I modeled 13 years ago in Houdini 9, but it was never really textured, lit and rendered. So I took the model into blender and made some product shots of this old model. It’s an iRiver iHP-120, that I owned back then.  
Images are rendered in Cycles, but Eevee was very useful while setting up the materials. Eevee’s quality is pretty close to the path-traced version.
