Bill, in one of the latest issues of a German Flyfishing magazine this or a very similar pattern was published. I'm not at home right now, but if memory serves, the author was Roman Moser. Probably Roman's pattern was without a tail. I'm pretty sure that he used a foam strip for the parachute post and the thorax as well. When I'm home I'll try to lock up the article and give you more details.
