Tarantula NGC 2070 first rough edit

This is my favourite nebula and was so excited to make a start on it.
I haven't given this more than 30mins editing right now, because I think it's going to need a few days to tackle, but here's a first edit that I'd like to share.
C&C welcome as it could help me decide how to edit it properly over the weekend.

Edited in Startools standard, but I'll be trying Siril and the compose module in Startools as well soon.
Also sort of a first light on the Esprit. I've tackled a few targets over the past 3 nights, this is one of them.

Camera:ASI2600MC
Scope: SkyWatcher Esprit 120 + 1x Field Flattener
Filters: L-Extreme
Mount:EQ6-R Pro
Guiding camera: ASI290MM
Guiding scope: SkyWatcher EvoGuide 50ED
Subs: 52 x 420s
Total Integration: 6hrs 4mins over two nights
Gain: 0
Offset: 50
Lights: 52
Darks: 40
Flats: 80
