I'm no expert on fly tying, but that's definitely a nice looking fly. Wish I could tie something like that.

Its hard to see in these photo's but I did use the red breast feathers for the carapace over the tail. I then covered the lower brownish part of the feathers with golden tippets dyed red. The rest are alternating layers of golden pheasant tippets in natural orange and dyed red. In the future I plan to cover the tips of the eyes in black nail Polish so they stand out more. I'm also covering all the feathers with Dave's flexcement to see how that looks. It's very difficult to work with those tippets and keep them together.

Thanks for the compliments.
