anarchistscourge Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hi All, I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere, but having no luck finding anything for it i thought i would ask here. I've just started a Crimson Fist force, primarily with the Marines from the Dark Imperium box set and after having a look I can't find a good source of the Crimson Fist transfers. The only ones i can find are 5 on the sheets that come with tactical marines (i think). I could buy a £16 sheet from FW but they are only Imperial Fist and black and white not red. So what do people do for their transfers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Forge World used to have a Crimson Fists transfer sheet but that disappeared a while ago. You can find a Crimson Fists decal sheet ready to be used here and here. If you'd like to use another fist design for your decals (a more modern one, for example), I'd recommend contacting @Carlson793 and ask him to create a decal sheet for you (all that's needed is a polite PM and the symbol you'd like to use). I'd suggest using Chapter Customizer to actually print the decals. I hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAR Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) you could also go this route but I don't know what the shipping cost would be for you.....King's Fist icons on Shapeways. When I was building my Crimson Fists I used embossed shoulder pads from GW (pewter and finecast) Edited June 28, 2017 by war009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anarchistscourge Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 Thanks for all the suggestions. I had seen those decals before, but was unsure if anyone had found any official sheets. WIth regards to the shoulder pads, I have thought about getting some of those before (there are loads of sellers on shapeways) but i just think i would prefer to do decals, much easier in my opinion and cheaper too WAR 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebaur Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 I bought some Templar ones from Shapeways, I'll let you know how they turn out, could be an option to supplement your decals. You might be able find some of the tactical transfers on ebay for relatively cheap as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anarchistscourge Posted August 9, 2017 Author Share Posted August 9, 2017 So i went with printed decals........which dont work lol. Because im using an inkjet printer, there seems to be an issue with ink / colour density and so the red is very very transparent and can hardly be seen against the blue armour. I now have to come up with a new way to get the correct and decent looking decals onto my painted minis at a reasonbale cost. Any ideas people?

Pbenner Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 How many do you need? There used to be Transfer Sheets that came in most of the boxes that had a few Fist (both Imp and Crimson) and I'm pretty sure I've got a whole stack of them around here... Will those work?

anarchistscourge Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 They would indeed, i have 2 sheets of those myself, they have 5 CF transers per sheet. I worked out i would need abou 96 for my current army, but im adding to it all the time so extras are always wecome. It just irks me that in the Dark Imperium box you get loads of UM, BA, DA, and space wolves but none for the other chapters. Even if there were just generic IF ones that would be ok.

Pbenner Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Somewhere around I have a stack that is 2-3cm thick of just transfer sheets that I'll probably never use as I'm more of a molded pad guy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anarchistscourge Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 I was tempted by molded pads but its a cost issue for me. If your willing i will happily take the sheets off of your hands / fists (see what i did there :P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anarchist, what about FW etched brass? I've bought it and works great for me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anarchistscourge Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Could work but i can imagine it will be quite expensive doing a whole army that way. How many of the "infantry" sized icons are in the pack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeltaRange Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Google/search ebay for "Assault on Black Reach transfer" that has a lot of Crimson Fist ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackcat Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Check fists etched brass from this guy. It's cheap, he is super fast with shipping and the brass is AWESOME. 10 x better than fat ang ugly shapeways stuff. Hersir 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaCone2 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Has anyone managed to find the unit type transfers for the other pad?Found plenty but not in red... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valhalla130 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) Don't the old marine transfer sheets have those? I could check when I get off work in the monring. Edited January 12, 2018 by valhalla130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valhalla130 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I checked online and the small sheet that used to come with marine kits has so me u der the Dark Angels section. They have the assault crosses, devastator explosion, and the tactical arrows that go sideways. There's also a larger DA transfer sheet GDubs made with more and with vehicle markings. You could probably eBay plenty of them for cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valhalla130 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Looking into this more, I can't find that many cheap ones. I probably have a lot of them though at home. I'd be willi ng to trade for something small or just give them to you. They look like this: https://www.ebay.com/i/172901953580?chn=ps&ul_ref=http%253A%252F%252Frover.ebay.com%252Frover%252F1%252F711-117182-37290-0%252F2%253Fmpre%253Dhttps%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.ebay.com%25252Fi%25252F172901953580%25253Fchn%25253Dps%2526itemid%253D172901953580%2526targetid%253D375371268920%2526device%253Dm%2526adtype%253Dpla%2526googleloc%253D9011427%2526poi%253D%2526campaignid%253D962079826%2526adgroupid%253D51577353521%2526rlsatarget%253Daud-384261922267%253Apla-375371268920%2526abcId%253D1129816%2526merchantid%253D118876846%2526gclid%253DCjwKCAiA1uHSBRBUEiwAkBCtza8VY4vNDs98DS1d-uG1gZ_e0k7RgJctZ7RTA_-KQ2WscmpF8CTzwRoCs5YQAvD_BwE%2526srcrot%253D711-117182-37290-0%2526rvr_id%253D1414672132348 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
