I'm learing to tie the SHWAPF from the beginners tying lessons on here. I tied a couple on sz 18 hook. I've never tied anything this small before.

Looking at my image, I obviously need to work on building heads. Maybe the body is too thick too, I'm not sure. The squrrel hackle seems maybe too sparse on mine.

Could I get some tips on how to do these better? I'd really appreciate it.
