Nice stuff. As far as the toilet goes, I amp retty sure you could get very
close with boxes and cylinders if you were patient. Just need to use larger
radii cylinders for the bottom and sides of the bowl vs the top. Then a
torus insteasd of a sphere at the corner. Remember that the tank has a lid
and the bowl two seats, and you'd have something much more satisfyingly
toilet-like.

Anyway, the lighting is nice. The camera is placed fine, but you might play
around with it and see if there is somewhere more dramatic to place it, to
give it that showroom look. Looks good as-is, too.
