Awesome image. Has everything one can think of. Saves lots of time.
I was able to provision this on OCI in 15 min and setup VNC.
One issue: When I VNC, the screen resolution is so small, I am unable to use any developer tool such as SQL Developer. How do increase the screen resolution so it become workable on 27 inch monitor.

Start the VNC server with a different geometry (or a couple) and see if one of these work for you:
$ vncserver -geometry 1600x1200 -geometry 800x600 -geometry 1920x1200
Then, to resize from within the VM:
$ xrandr -s 1920x1200
