Tip: When applying metallic materials, it is always preferable to not apply on to flat surfaces. These locker doors imposed a difficult challenge, for their format is mainly flat, with no curves or angles. To minimize this problem, I added some dents to the locker's door geometry by manipulating vertices. I also added some real polygonal ornament, bump maps and created Boolean holes for the vents. Notice how these details and some of the subtle creases on the doors make the metallic material stand out and shine like real metal, capturing the highlights.
