Nice fly
Personally I would go with a darker thorax.
Most if not all flies have a darker thorax than the abdomen.

If I am fishing this soft hackle as a pale evening dun cripple or as a yellow sally stonefly adult, the naturals in my area have no dark thorax. If I was fishing a nymphal stage for these insects the entire body and hackle would be darker and a different pattern such as hares ear and brown Partridge would be my choice.
Tight lines!

Hi Roadkill
Sorry mate
I am not familiar with the fly you’re representing.
I am in the Uk

The closest refererence that I can give you is to refer to Ronalds Yellow Dun and Yellow Sally in the Fly-Fisher's Entomology. The flies I am trying to represent here are genus Heptagenia and Isoperla. Some day I hope to dunk some soft hackles in a proper British chalk stream.
