this is really good but if you want it to really match that background try changing the light color to a very pale blue (almost white). Move the light up and to the left of where it is now by about 15 degrees and soften your shadows by 10-20 percent. That should get you a slightly more realistic looking render. 3D has so much in common with photography and I have found it's all about the lighting
The props in this scene are so very realistic looking and the setup is really nice very believable and your textures are spot realistic. I can see allot of time and effort was put into this.

Thanks very much. I completely agree with the lighting comment, definitely need to give that a go

Glad I could give some constructive criticism and it just shows what kind of artist you truly are that you would take it so well some folks get very angry if they put allot of time into something and somebody comes along and finds anything wrong with it. I've been on a couple of sites where somebody would say what was wrong but give no advice on how to fix it...and they'd bee really good artists too. I hope to see your next render soon.

I'm a self taught modeller so all advice and tips are always welcome! In my experience listening to other artists is generally the fastest way to learn, rather than bumbling about on your own

Amen to that! That's how my 3D got as good as it is I didn't know squat until I asked a few guys.

Thank you! It took about 3 or 4 months on and off to model and texture the whole scene

Thanks! There is so much more to see but I've not had a chance to render it all yet!
