    As far as the complexity of the scene goes, I think it's just about
right, a couple of points though (well, 3) :

reflection test - I take the coloured cylinders are just place-holders for
the moment, and will have differing amount of reflection, yes  ?

texture rotation test - What are the different rotations on each
half-cylinder - (it's hard to tell from your sample image) - are they,
un-rotated, x-rotation, y-rotation & z-rotation or differing degrees of
rotation round a single axis ?

scaling test - I would put in a couple more spheres at more clearly defined
scaling factors - maybe 5 in total with 1/4x, 1/2x, 1x, 2x, 4x or maybe,
even, a larger spread...
