I am looking for good decals to use for unit insignia and tactical markings on several of my 6mm sci-fi factions.  I have factions in both tactical colors and what L4 refers to as "Circus Colors", but dread painting tiny numbers and insignia (mostly because they are hard to keep consistent across hundreds of tanks).  I have found the following resources online, but wondered if this group has any experience or other sources.

I-94 Enterprises (mostly WWII markings)

GHQ (WWII and modern microarmor markings)

Fighting Pirannha  (makers of CAV and Battletech insignia)


Please let me know your experience and reccommendations.

Thanks.

Oh, and if anyone has any spare decal sheets from the Human Blood Bowl Team (the Reikland Reavers) please let me know.  I use that yellow griffon head as a faction symbol, and am running out.

I have purchased blank decal sheets but have not had a chance to use them.  Supposedly if you have a good enough printer you can make very small, detailed decals.  I think I bought them from Walters.

As you can see, on most of my models, I use a lot of decals. Many are HO/OO scale from various models and sources. ROCO Minitanks had a good selection. And I use the old G/W packs. There are some small ones there. I also got some from Decals Express. He did all the Hammer's Slammers decals in 6mm for me (now to hope O/C does 6mm Slammers !!??). Also Wargames Inc., has a good selection, and I have used those too.  I would think for numbers, GHQ would be a good choice ... :D But I've never used them ...  And nice orange Mk.III !  I'll send you a pic of mine - in Jungle Green ! :;):

And nice orange Mk.III !

Thanks!
Actually, it's GW Crimson Gore.   The color balance of my camera/lighting/editing, coupled with my partial red/green colorblindness may have affected this picture :glare:
