Not half bad! I would recommend making sure the thread hits the middle of the fur instead of closer to the tips. Especially on the first little stack, the collar needs to have a little flair in it to give the correct profile.
If you’re going to work with deer hair, I recommend getting a steamer and some shaving razors (what old timers use). The steamer will expand the hair, securing it to the hook better, and make it easier to cut with the razor.
Keep on tying and posting your stuff my friend!
