Nicely done, particularly like the mottled colouration - though if you have time, you might wanna shave off the 1st dorsal fin and the pelvic fins.

Euantiarchs lack pelvic fins (the "pelvic fin" impressions on some Canadian Bothriolepis are now believed to be the stains of viscera ejected during decomposition) while the 1st dorsal fin was an artifact of preservation on a prominently figured Canadian specimen (absent on 100s of other Bothrios from around the world). Finally, as far as we know, the dorsal fin lacked any sort of fin rays (unlike the caudal fin).
