Very interesting image! I wonder if this made it look bigger to potential rivals. Nice detail and color. Thanks for sharing.

Cool. To my eye, the dark line in the water over the croc would represent level, therefore this could benefit from clockwise rotation. Techs look spot on.

Thanks for the comments, I think it does need a little rotation
