This picture is off-topic, but the observation about Firefly being underated reminded me of this image I did in November. People think it can't do this stuff. It can. This scene was lit with one IBL (handmade drawing some blobs) and a single infinite light. Look how nice the chrome is, and the water looks just right to me. The water falling from the faucet is just a poser cylinder. The rings are poser torus times 2. All the shaping was done with procedural functions applied to displacement. The render time was just a few minutes.
(Be sure to click to see the details)
What did you use for the water in the tub? I was trying to make a bathtub render yesterday and I found a free water plane but it was huge and certainly didn't fit the tub. I ended up not use water at all and instead did post work bubbles to hide the fact that there was no water. LOL
What is a "poser torus"?
Could you also show your material room set up for that scene? The water looks very realistic.

heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
