To me the shape looks really good. But I think you should improve the
textures, both metal and glass.
I couldn't see your example (the link you posted seems bad or something),
but I would suggest more variable reflections (something like reflection
{0.2,0.8 falloff 3}-you are using POV 3.5 AREN'T YOU?), ambient 0 (but you'd
loose your purplish shadow I think), higher brilliance and maybe lower
diffuse. Ah, and specular highligths should be a bit stronger (not too much
imo) and maybe just a little less dull.
Keep up the good work.
