Grab an image offline of a dresser and try and copy the texture, and colors in Gimp.
Use it as a reference layer while you draw.

Welcome jaykaye1!
The Tutorial section at GC is very good and the "How to Make a Metallic Control Knob", that was mentioned, is brilliant.

Welcome to Gimp Chat :gimp
Why dont you introduce yourself in the Introduce yourself forum and then you will get many people jumping in to say hi. After, any questions you may have you can go to the gimp help forum. Lots of tutorials here too.
