Excellent work! Bicubic patches are fun (although nowadays I prefer
Wings-type meshes) and you did a great job here. The textures too are very
well done, in particular the bowl.

I would blacken the inside of bowl though. Even a brand new pipe is often
pre-burned in somewhat.

Magritte is a great inspirator!
