I use differing colors, but my favorite is 2 solid blue with a solid red cock fletch. I also am very fond of 3 red or 3 blue.

Usually red barred....but have done quite a few with grey barred cock and red barred hens.

newest arrows are plain shafts i put together with natural barred fletching all around from Magnus!  :)

I like lavender with reflective purple wraps , the points I usually do color with Translucent pearl nail polish over plain red which has the pink hue to it if the sunlight is beaming down on the feltched part of the shaft.  

the hunting versions I like to keep a similar color scheme but more of a earthy tone,,  so crazy baby blue, white pin stripes, the feathers are extra light baby blue (let fade in direct sunlight for about 2 weeks to get the light baby blue shade) the nocks are the lighted nocks for confirmation of the hit,, but I color the nocks with a green sharpy which makes them light up bright purple.  the broadheads are simply brushed to bare metal and then I apply a clear coat for a natural metal effect.
