I don't seem to have taken many documenting screenshots for this model.
Basically I recreated the 3D sketch in sketchup to start with.
Then after some fiddling I made a smaller version of the large back curved shape and repeated it many times in a semi circle like fashion inside the semi circular pipe. I duplicated this to the other side. It created a fancy/interesting looking shadow too which was a bonus.
I grouped them all together and then made them smaller and rotated the group different ways until I ended up with what you see below.
After this I duplicated the large backing curved shape many times and scaled them down on each repetition to create an almost 'pages-in-a-book like effect on the back of it.
Its a real shame I did not take more screenshots with this one because there were some really interesting looking renderings that were coming through.
Anyway after painting the model with a mixture of sketchup's metal textures and my proportion texture I came to this detail shot location in my model.

At this stage I drew on some entourage instead of drawing some extra 3D earlier on. (I did this with all my models)
And here it is, entourage included (from photoshop).
