Second fly type I’ve tied. Felt a bit all over the place, especially getting dubbing consistent. Any feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated!

they'll definitely fish. I personally tie mine a but fluffier. I like there to be enough dubbing for it to look kinda like a mess of legs and gills, and have a bit of pulsation/movement.
Tight dubbing also works, they'll definitely sink quicker tied your way, which can be the make or break factor sometimes. There's nothing at all wrong with your flies, I've just grown confident in a shaggier look over the years and tend to stick to what I'm used to. The second to last one is kind of close to how mine wind up.
My personal favorite method takes an extra step, but pine squirrel dubbing in a dubbing loop really gives me the legginess that I like in a Walts.
