Perhaps one of the most smooth renderings I've seen.
I can't believe a 85 hour render time with a 733MHz cpu, incredible just for
this one object.  Not a good commercial for the notebook (slower than
desktops/towers anyway) computer I have in mind.
I really don't understand you thinking this lacks photorealism so I can't
point anything out myself.
The web page tutorials I've seen are usually about getting the basics learned,
not photorealism.  There's even the 3 light rule type stuff but I don't think
of that as having to do with such a thing.
