I'm not sure why some places are targeted and others are ignored.

Games Workshop just shut down our entire Etsy store—an extreme overreach. They’re claiming our Hexmesh, Camo, Tribal, and Jester-patterned airbrush stencils violate their IP. This aggressive crackdown on small creators doesn’t just hurt businesses like ours—it alienates dedicated fans and damages the hobby community as a whole. By removing tools that help hobbyists personalize and enhance their armies, they’re pushing everything toward bland uniformity. It’s disappointing—but maybe it’s time for hobbyists to explore new games. As for us at Fallout Hobbies, we’re turning the page and launching a bold new line of products in the near future.

Considering that comment number one on that post is about the symbols copied for transfers and one further down says "Did you use GW terms?" with a response of "Probably yeah", this is yet another nothing-burger.

If sellers haven't understood by now to use adjacent terms then they never will.

Yeah, sure it was the "camo" and "hexmesh" and "jester" stencils that got it stopped, totally not the the decals and such that seem to have VERY similar designs to GWs own stuff....

Why am notoriously bad tempered bear rip my arms off when I did it a prod?
