I'm not sure this is all that "amazing" when compared to the other fine work that has been uploaded here. This is just a screenshot that cooked for about 30 minutes. I was trying to duplicate the X-box controller render that was done in Photoview 360 some time ago. The model was designed by Mark Biasotti at SolidWorks and was uploaded to GrabCad. (Thank you Mark.)
It's not quite there yet. The lighting is a real challenge but the HDRI editor comes in handy though. And I did get some pointers from Luxion Support early on.
Looks good to me, but i don't know the render you are trying to replicate, all i know is that I like what i see :)

Thanks Martin, here is a link to the render (https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3260/3120072563_52d6f7be58.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.flickriver.com/groups/solidworks/pool/random/&h=280&w=500&tbnid=MGC1hRQBJr-2WM:&docid=v_p0cflhBQI26M&ei=Ar26Vs7RHKbfjwTViZ2oAw&tbm=isch&ved=0ahUKEwjO2ru0ruzKAhWm74MKHdVEBzUQMwhhKD0wPQ) this is emulating for comparison. It was featured on Josh Mings' SolidSmack newsletter a while back too, that's where I got the idea for this render.
Not far off at all - Hdri needs rotating a tad and then some messing with contrast and brightness levels and you'll be there :)
