I had the time in the past week to make up some woodies. I wanted to try another way by using Rustoleom enamel spray paint and using Varathane stain and water base satin poly. So bare with me. I wanted to achieve a certain weight of arrow so there was some trial and error here.

Cresting was done with Testors acrylic model paint.

Nicely done.

I dipped one of clear coat after my yellow crown and a second dip after my cresting. My first dip is nock down, then my second and third dips are point down so the entire arrow is sealed.

I use 0000 steel wool on my arrows between clear coats but after my third and final coat I lightly sand with 220 grit sand paper then use 0000 steel wool to finish my arrow shaft.

I used Bearpaw fethers and Duco glue. I had minor issues with Bearpaw barred feathers but I made them work.

I accomplished my weight goal, total arrow weight with a 135 grain Zwickey Delta is 584 grains. And I want truly thank Mike Vines for his help.

Looks great.......well done.      

Thanks everyone, Mike Vines deserves a lot of the credit. They are far from perfect but they are good enough for me and they fly great!

Very nice job.  How did you like working with the Rustoleum enamel?

Really nice arrows, the colors remind of hornets, I wouldn't want to get hit by one of those.

Nice job there.
