Does anyone do these? I've googled, which revealed nothing (though -Disney does clear it up a lot), and checked possible suspects such as Customeeple, MAS, Warsenal etc, but beyond the graffiti transfers MAS do, can't find any. I ask because the DronBots on the box cover have tiny little PanO symbols on the side, which given the skills of the artist are probably freehand but might not be.

Sadly none that I am aware of, you're likely going to have to make up some of your own.
I know of a guy who made some Tohaa ones that you can print up, but never found other factions.

Pretty sure someone on the official forums did some faction specific sheets that could be printed onto transfer paper with faction/ unit logos on it. As for the models i think giraldez freehands most of the markings that are on the models.

I didn't realise decals could be DIYed so effectively, have found CDKs 'Infinity Decals' thread on the official forums. Thanks
I will be speaking to a local printing company, don't think my £30 HP will quite be up to the detail.

There are TWO kinds of decal film (inkjet and laser).
The laser one is preferable to the inkjet one.
That said, even decal papers have quality issues, too. Not all decal papers are equal - but generally, laser ones take less prep time than inkjet ones.
You need GOOD quality laser film AND a good laser printer to get good ones (and the ones that I used to get in model kits were often silkscreened, not done on a printer as such.)
It IS possible to DIY this stuff, but it isn't cheap and there WILL be losses associated with the learning curve. There are also sites that can print stuff for you online - so I'm told.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...
... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

This is one of those things I really wish Warsenal or one of the other third parties could do for Infinity. I'd buy them in a heartbeat.

You could try. I've heard that to get good results, you need to print at an insanely high DPI, like 1200 or something.

I had some custom printed from a guy who does them for model rail roads and model aircraft.
They are a bit pricey, but worth it, as printing them out on my printer resulted in dead dog s#!t.
