If your happy with it mate then theres nowt wrong....It's a Great Effort mate! Not too shabby for a first attempt at it. My thoughts on it though.....

Try and keep the Bronze Mallard an even length, if you find its 'popping up' too much, press it down and forwards, towards the eye, creating a crease and it'll lie more horizontal. Pinch & Loop to trap the BM wing ontop of the fly, looks like its rotated away from you slightly.

2-3 Turns of Black Hen is ample.

Just my thoughts mate, I'm far from perfect mind!

Something to give you an idea....
