Pictures are just fine.  Congratulations on finishing the project.  And thanks for sharing.  By the way, you never did say what scale you are using - 15 MM?  25 MM?  28 MM?  I can kind of estimate but I'd like hard data from the creator of that beautiful river.   Okay, just kidding!

It looks fantastic - just says 'Sudan' to me.  The palm trees add a lot of character.

If you're not happy with the paint job, I would suggest that the strong brush strokes make the water look quite rapid and fast-moving.  You might get different results using more gentle brush strokes and perhaps ink washes.  I have had good results doing water that way, followed by several coats of very glossy yacht varnish.
