So, to start with, let me just say that I had a STACK of fun making this texture. I got to look up a lot of cool fisher-price doo-dads and generally revel in the past

Thanks for creating this challenge!

Now, To start with, I went for a generic plastic and minimalistic feel to the texture. whilst I don't think I've nailed it, I think I've certainly learned more about suggesting texture with subtle gradients.
The majority of the box is the one colour (as I'd expect from a toy shop), with stickers slapped on baring the "Rescue Squad" label. These stickers are of a higher specularity, and have a couple of nicks and scratches here and there to denote some sort of use

The locks are the type you'd find on those cops and robbers handcuffs. The mechanism has a switch near the top to release; the key area is a sticker. The chain is multi-coloured and made from cheap plastic, which pushes the toy look that much more.

Ambient occlusion created, blurred and set to 20% opacity. I didn't want it to look too real. Its a toy after all. The image is about fun and bright colours!

Rescue Squad, AWAY!

Yeah, I'm slightly late on submitting but its no biggie (I've already submitted one already) just want some feedback.

So I started off with finding some wood texture and adjusting it to my liken, added a skull decal to make it pirate looking. Added some trim with some detail. Then I went into and crazybump and made normal and spec and experiment.
