Unfortunately, there's really noticeable tiling issues on the leather material - otherwise nice attempt.

Hi Despot,
thanks for having a look and for your comments, they are greatly appreciated. I used the texture that came with the model but, I will have a look for something better to replace it with and post the results in this thread.  If you get a moment maybe you can have another look and let me know what you think.

Hi again Despot,
I just had another look at the model in keyshot and noticed that the mapping was set at "BOX" I have now changed this to UV and that seems to be sorting out the tiling issue. I am just doing a quick render now to see how it looks.

[Artvps]

made a couple of changes, but not sure if it has improved any.

Nice rendering.

Are you willing to share the .KSP file for further exploration?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Artur
Just let me get this one to a finished state first and I will be happy to share it. I am still new to keyshot...and very green

It sure has the close-up looks nice actually, now try pushing the lighting

I think some directional light would compliment it well.

Thanks for having another look, Despot.
I have now added some lights to the scene.

Hi Will, many thanks for having a look and your suggestion, which I have now done.

[Artvps]

Added two lights to the scene and changed the material of the legs.

Hey Artvps, great changes ! That light really helps, but i think the leather material is a bit too shiny perhaps ? I can be wrong though. Cheers !

Hi NM-92,
Thanks for having a look and for your comments and suggestions. I think you are correct on what you say, not sure if it is the material being too shiny, or the lighting being too hard...I will soften the lighting as a first step to see if that makes the difference before adjusting the material.

updated with one additional light (more overhead) and softened the other two lights.
