Lookin good again Ed, the hackles are falling nicely, still just a bit long for me personally but the shape and form is good, check the hackles for size against the shank before you tie them, if you try and get them the length of the hookshank it will give you a better idea of proportions, to start with anyway then you can alter the length accordingly after that for dabblers, standard wets etc etc.....nice work
