The following visuals are from a

Currently, Alpha Team Intelligence has identified it as a single occupant Sea
Monkey craft with a highly agile drive system. As the SeaFlea encountered an
extraordinary amount of signal interference, the current speculation is that
the fins serve as a antenna array of some type.
Notes: I have been wanting to do a lionfish for some time for the SMs, but
didn’t know how to incorporate the SM in or on the craft. I got the
head/cockpit idea from Gareth Bowler (Gareth at FBTB)- thanks!!

Wow! Joe, this thing is great! You nailed the lionfish camoflage. I thought it
was black at first but brown is spiffy. Excellent cockpit (missed that at FBTB)
and overall form.
I do have a question/comment and a criticism. First, off the
record, is the 1x2x4 panel a “data sensory” thing? If not, I would suggest
swapping it with a clear one. Secondly, I think the sphenoid (came across it
while looking for a synonym for spiffy, since I use it a lot) could use some
work. The “neck bone” seems to interrupt the flow of the design. What about
reversing it and using a 2x2 mound (~10 minutes later...couldn’t think of a set;
Egypt Adventurers but (duh) Snowspeeder):

bricks; if it’s not too much trouble.
Alright, keep up the great work!

He wanted a Bohrok canopy part for a MOC and we started playing with the part. And as for the (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.space, FTX)
