thx

Yes, there's a problem with the base of the lamp. I have remade it with quads and it's still the same...
For the light, the lamp is the only source.

Great images!
for mm, the gun and the bullets look too much like plastic....?

Nice scene. Some details could be improved though, imho : The primer's edge is too sharp, and the material of the primer should be slightly different (different brass, stainless or red copper). The embossed caliber and logo on the shells, around the primers of the cartridges looks like printed instead of embossed. It is due to the fact that you didn't blurred the texture. Increase the size of the font and blur it a bit, and you will get a better effect. The material of the shells (brass) is poor. Always think that metallic materials like chrome or brass require something to reflect. You seem to have used an HDR or LDR environment, but often it is not enough to get good reflections, and a plane with a texture with some emissive value could be used to lit the scene over the shells, or simply dicreasing the roughness could be sufficient.

I made the scene below with Blender internal render engine 3 years ago, so I am sure that better effects could be achieved with Octane.

Anyway , nice composition, and funny joke on the bank notes !

Gorgeous render but I have to call you out on one thing.....Money is too modern for prohibition. The 1930s-1950s had a different print than they do today.

thx
the gun is modern too, not only the money.
