Your metal texture looks good, but the bumps should probably be a lot finer. You can’t see them in the reference pic. Great modeling!

Looks good! I think the very top part, where it has all the inlets then it is protruding outwards and it goes around the whole handle. Those could be a lot finer, the protrusions that is. Like in the reference. But it look good! Keep it up!

Okay, thanks Dudebot

…lol I thought the reference was the one you came with on blender. That’s how slow my 'net is. But after while your *.blend image is quite cool. Keep at it!
