Prompt snippets

The excavator is a heavy-duty hydraulic excavator with a weathered yellow paint finish, featuring visible scuffs and minor rust spots. The machine has a rotatable cab with tinted glass windows and a black protective metal grid over the roof. It is equipped with thick, muddy black rubber tracks and a reinforced triple-jointed hydraulic boom arm. The large toothed steel digging bucket is dark charcoal grey with polished silver edges from use. Dual hydraulic cylinders are visible along the arm, and a small red fire extinguisher is mounted to the exterior of the cab.
