Will need to see better pictures. One thing I can tell from this picture is that the head/body juncture is completely wrong. You need to use reference pictures to see how the head lines up with the body. Can't tell much else from this picture.

I apologize if I`m wrong, but to me it looks like a combination of different types of fish. If not, the head should be angling out and away from the wood.

It looks like the form should have been turned the other way. so the head & tail are coming out at you... not going towards the wall... can't really tell much else from the pic.

I agree. It looks like you have the wrong side of the fish against the driftwood.
