First time making a double braid tight eye splice.

Overall it seems to have turned out ok, but one side of the eye is thinner. I followed one of the rope tutorials on doing it. The rope is a Scion Blue 11.5mm but the rope is closer in diameter to 1/2 then 7/16 so I used my 1/2 fid for making my measurements.

The thinner section makes me a little concerned, but pictures of this splice on the net seem to often be the same. What do you guys think? Thanks!
