I tie a lot of segmented foam-body dry flies, varying the size and color for the Stonefly hatches in the Western US. Peacock herl underbody, Coastal Deer hair wing. Great on its own and supports a dropper well.
Can you shoot a pic from below? If you use a peacock rib it will disappear into the underbody from below. For contrast from below, perhaps some orange or yellow floss against the peacock. Who cares about contrast from the top?
