I like it since I've had perverse fascination with the bomb since 
childhood. It looks very much like some of the tactical nuclear
tests done in Nevada in the 50's. My only criticism as others 
have pointed out is the lack of a ground shockwave from the 
blast.  

If you are interested in the technical details of nuclear blasts and
such you might want to check out the High Energy Weapons Archive
at http://www.fas.org/nuke/hew/index.html

There are lots of good pictures of bomb tests and tons of info 
on nuclear weapons effects. Everything you wanted to know about
nukes but were afraid to ask. . .

I have been looking for a good link to imagery like this and
thank you for sharing it with us.

Maybe more than I ever wanted to know.
The shockwave addition image is attatched to one of my replies here. The
third image of 3. Four if you count Kens initial "nuke object".
Looking at some other pictures it becomes apparent almost any shape
could be used. A turbulent media in a sphere container would suffice. I
like Kens lathe shape best.
