Hi Max, Really nice wires on you headphones! Modeling stuff like that burns waaaaaaaaaay too many hours for me. There is always some 'gotcha'. So, I usually just texture map in details like that. Unless you're doing an ultra zoom on the headphones, it should be imperceptable. I know, I know, it's not the purests way of doing things but I've got to leave some time in the day for something else. Mark
