Yes, I think they are. It's one of many designs I lifted from photographs of the Book Of Kells. I love the artwork in that! The dogs on my targe are the same.

This is the "before" picture- it may make the birds a little easier to see

The color is 2 parts emerald green, one part thinner, airbrushed on, and then coated with an antique gel.

Thanks for the additional picture, brother. That's very good, clean work, that is.
