Eagle archers those are nocks. Thanks for all the nice replys. Those are made with a bohning paint for the dipping and cresting, bottom part are made with a folkart paint, stained light color, adding a darker color by puting 6 differfent shades of blue, green depending the color. Ive made 20 differnt combinations. For the clear coat I used a floor urethane is similar to swedish floor urethane is way stronger than yact varnish. Its heat resistance doesnt stick to targets and doesnt ware off. Bohning products for the dipping cant be shipped, but the paint used for camo you culd find at a craft store is a water base acylic paint por some in cup add water to used as a stain, with a sponge add small dots. Hope This Helps Marlon
