You might try some Ice Dubbing for rear and front of that body and use a dubbing loop ( put 'em in the loop together ) as you will be able to easily adjust the amount of dubbing. Also, build up the black dubbing slightly forward so when you wind hackle it will be perpendicular to hook shank, the hackle will breathe, maybe consider using dyed guinea.
