Picture number 1 I don't remember...
Picture number 2 I put the Battosai into a box, made it have about .4 reflectivity with mainly blue ambience
Picture number 3 I made the display case in ac3d, merged all the objects of the Battosai and gave it the Old Gold povray texture, and created the rear wall in povray by making its code manually.
