looks like a nice base from first look. you have all of the basics covered! nice! Why don't you switch the DE drill with the bottom elixir storage though?

Overall it's a fairly good base. Honestly, I would stick with the original plan in the first picture and just change a few things up. Here is what I like about the first base pic you posted, and what I would change.
Pros:
-Double giant bombs near the south air defense are a great trap for hogs.
-Wiz towers and teslas covering storages.
-Multiple compartments to deter wall breakers.
-Spring traps between defenses for hogs and giants.
Cons:
-Fairly easy to draw clan castle (a single giant on one of the northern torches).
-Place tesla spring traps next to seeking air mines.
-Switch southern elixir storage with dark elixir drill, move barb king to where elixir storage was, and de drill where barb king was. This will allow the barb king to draw troops off storages.
-Move skeleton traps closer to interior so they draw troops off storages rather then toward.
-Switch top mortars with air defenses to allow more air coverage and mortar defense on north storages.
I think you got a pretty solid base man, and those few things are just what I would personally adjust and if I was still at TH8 I would definitely consider using it. Check out my TH9 farming base and let me know what ya think.

Thank you for the detailed pros and cons, appreciated!
I have took in a few of your cons.
Moved barb king down below, doesn't provide coverage for non of the storages slightly above however it may prevent a hard attack from the south, if they go in from the south they could easily take 4 storages. This would also prevent the southern mortars being took out fast since they are not so central away from the action.
I'm gonna be honest, I've never been raided by hogs yet (not including war)! So judging by my first attack, I decided to double up the spring on both sides since I can't imagine attackers coming in strong from the north. This will hopefully take out a few more giants on the go. The first attack, the giants went for the tesla, turned into the spring trap (ignored the wizard at the back) straight to the Archer tower, through another spring trap but then stopped in there tracks there after they took the cannon out rather than going North to the next spring trap.
I did actually move a black mine in front of the storages before you mentioned it after someone freely sent in a dragon which would of been taken care of if the black mine had been there.
I'm still to move the skeleton traps as well. Obviously all this is subject to change :)
I will check out your farming Base after I've done a few errands :)

@harhar on the first page of comments, I've explained this also though at the time doesn't seem promising. I have changed this base since now though
LOG 2
Take into consideration 520k gold is available. His archers managed to take 1 gold storage, tesla is currently upgrading otherwise I reckon that wouldn't of been possible for him.
