                                        You should bevel some more edges if your laptop can handle it, its always a pain when you want to go further but your computer wont let you!
                                        Those electrical wires on top are great that must have taken forever! You 'HAVE' to render this you know.

                                            When I used to use my old PC to model I had the same problem I got around it by making the whole model in about 10 different files then assembled them like a jigsaw to render usually in another app. Its troublesome and takes a long time but it gives good results. Anyway models still look great keep it up!
