Seeing as that they were under the overhang the carvings were protected but still quite visible. Please subtract an equal quantity of ends if you are adding flat caps.
Flat caps used in conjunction w/wall mount bracket when up against a structure. Said they would protect the place.They had the truss company only make tails on every second truss so the carvings were 4'OC which made it look more like a post and beam job.They looked very nice and added a custom touch.

HOs, a couple of 60s hippie-made-good types really liked them. Elaborated rafter ends - Curved rafter tails, decorative brackets, cut out rafter ends, and shingle siding add craftsmanship to this Arts & Crafts period home. The help thought they were ghastly and nightmare like. For the circle cut, I place the rafter on sawhorses and use the 3-foot pattern board to trace its edge onto each rafters ends. Only the last foot or so was carved with the balance of the nearly four feet just having the bottom edges relieved with a 5/8, or so, chamfer that stopped a few inches shy of where the carvings began.The carvings looked like a cross between NW American Indian, possibly with some Polynesian influence, and medieval castle gargoyles. They found a talented carver that would do a unique rustic animal motif for each piece. 2x4 material at the tails wouldn't offer much to work with.GC came up with the idea of using short lengths of 4圆 cut to fit around the tails and flush with the wall.
GC, a really good carpenter suggested that drop cord trusses would be a lot cheaper seeing as that the HO really didn't want exposed beams inside. I think I have seen a variation in what your saying.HO was building a custom house and wanted fancy rafter tails.
