They came from something he found dead in a dumpster.

Not trying to be funny.  He did.

     Nice! 8)  Only thing I would add is more wrapping right behind the arrow head.  Really nice.  I think a critter would be proud to get stuck with that. ;)  And....Pretty can be deadly also.  Just look at a coral snake. :o ;)

Nice looking point. Like the overall color...A bit more wrapping to secure the point and it would be good to fling...Nice work

Guys, I'm not going to shoot anything with this.  I shot it a few times to make sure it flew well but most likely it will just remain as a something to look at.

I gave you fair warning that this was out of character.  Actually I was thinking about offering it as a prize for something.  So now I have to think up a good competition. lol

Very original!  The iridescents of peacock feathers really looks good. I bet its loud though.  I also like the point nice flaking job on the blue glass.

Well... I might host an all women's primitive archery tournament and have that arrow as the prize.  I think women would come from all over the world for that.  >:D

You just won the internet.  Congrats.
