dude that's looking great! i think that the only piece you're missing is the base that juts out a bit at the bottom. I love you're tracks though. And those bloody cirlcy things are a nightmare to make look good! user added image

ok here is my latest (In case anyone askes it's an Ambient Occlusion render not a normal one) because I donthave the time to set up the light rig. I will later though.

God only knows what the black ellipse is up in that top corner but I will figure it out later.
