Looks very good indeed!
I have just been washing up :-) and watched the water going down the drain.
It seemed to me that the drain itself was a little bit more visible during
the process than in your image. Also, the dimple at the side, where the
vortex touches the basin, is much shallower I guess. However, that might be
controlled by the total geometry of basin and vortex, so...
