The buzzers look good and the small ones in the last picture.
The winged flies however need a bit more work though but this may be more down to how they have been photographed but the tails are way too long IMO and the wings dont look right .

There are several issues here some to do with technique particularly on the winged dries & several of the others would benefit from the use of finer threads such as 8/0 Uni & 14/0 G.G.

Yeah I'm trying to workout how to do the vertical wings properly, possibly a case of chunky finger syndrome and also making sure I pick the right bits of feather to them with. I have some 8/0 thread but in red, will be giving this a spin tonight most likely. All pointers on the correct way to select the right bit of feather etc... always welcome.
