New at baking no knead bread
I was wondering if this is a good looking bread or what to do differently? I let it sit for 18 hours before baking. And it crackled when it came out of the oven and cooled down.

Looks good on the outside...but you can't really judge a loaf by looking at the crust. Wait til it has completely cooled, cut into it, and judge the crumb as well.
The bread is beautiful from the outside. And, Jgaz, the crackling as it cools is called, "singing". Your bread was singing to you. I think you make a wonderful bread. You are probably caught up now for the rest of your life being a baker. Enjoy. It is a wonderful hobby and the breads are looked upon as nice gifts. Pretty soon you will be making your own butter to use with the bread and maybe some jams.
Looks good! How does it taste?
It taste good. It’s not light and fluffy inside but I guess this type of bread isn’t.
