Did someone say Blood Ravens? You all asked and you shall recieve.
I have been noting (again) that GW does a great job of covering the major 1st Founding and select 2nd Founding chapters with their decal sheets. However, there are a number of great looking 2nd and later founding chapters who get a good amount of back-story and have great alternative uniform colors that never have had decals produced for them. In the interest of promoting diversity in the Marine community and encouraging players to branch out beyond the "big 4", I keep knocking out logo sheets for some of these other chapters who I think look great and have no GW decal support.
The Blood Ravens have gotten a lot of GW attention and were the top BoLS reader requested logo sheet by far so here they are. Here is the link to the PDF file for the decal sheet you can freely pull down and use:

The sheet is designed for printout on Decal printer paper which is easily available online. These decals are designed for the CLEAR decal paper. The procedure is as follows:
CLEAR PAPER: If you use the clear decals, the decals need to be applied to a light colored surface to be visible at all. The procedure for applying the "outline only" decals is to apply them to a white surface, and wait till they are fully dried. Then using the outlines as a guide, paint in the darker color around the decal if needed. It is odd, but gets the job done.

Size wise, the larger decals towards the top are best used for super heavies/terrain, and move down in size to the large array of Marine Shoulderpad towards the bottom.
In any case, enjoy and I wish you the best in using this set for your forces.
~Please feel free to leave comments if there is a special Chapter, Craftworld, or something else you would love to collect, but have no GW decal options, and I will see what I can do.

How about some Iybraesil Craftworld Decals/Symbols(/Fluff?)?
Having the majority of a force stolen and since Fleshtearer shoulderpads have been dropped, it would be great to see a sheet for this chapter, for if anything to aid in reconstructing...
awesome work as always. do you think you could handle the Disciples of Caliban decal? It's a challenging icon to paint, and the lesser-known successor chapters need some love too. thanks!
would like to see an Iron Snakes decal sheet >.>
Love what you are doing here, thanks!! They already have SOB sheets out, you think it would be possible to have GK/DH sheets made. If you could, that would be awesome!!
In reply to Zamone's request, check this out ;)

Have fun with them snakes now!
Also, browse through the various decal sheets that have been put for download out there to check whether there is a decal sheet for what you're asking or not.
Aaaagh!
Above link got cut.. Well, check the download section at B&C is what i meant anyway, so go, whatcha waiting for?
Legion of the damned? Especially vehicle ones...
how about some Astral Claws sheets? would be nice to field them before they became the corsairs...
Night Lords would be great to see.
Keep up all the great work guys.
You're a credit to the hobby.
I have to vote with gw, I'd kill for the Disciples of Caliban Decal sheet! Not exactly the easiest of icons to paint...
BIGRED you have started it now! Te flood gates are well and truly open, I would agree with GW suggestion that we do need more transfer options for lesser known chapters, HOWLING GRIFFONS would be nice, especially superheavy/vehicle sized!
Nice BR decals!
http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=41 has Bloodraven Decals, Astral Claws etc.
Iron Snakes officially seconded!
Awesome!
Thanks man, I appreciate it!
(Yeah, I run Blood Ravens)
Lessee: all BA & DA successor chapters, Omega Marines, Aurora chapter, Death Eagles and Doom Warriors.
This makes a nice little (!!!) list to pick from.
Looks great guys,keep up the good work!
More goodies from the bowls of BoLS. I for one would like a sheet of Eldar logos for the Altansar craftworld.
How about a nice change of pace from the SM?
Sisters of Battle, Order of the Fiery Heart.
They were one of the founding orders for the Sistersbut we don't even get the faintest hint of what their armour colour and order iconography was because they changed their name.
It would be nice to have some Ultramarine decals. Everyone seems to overlook the Ultramarines. You could probably just take an Omega sign and turn it upside down.
After looking through both the BoLS and B&C lists, I'd love to see some Death Spectres decals. I saw that my favorite chapter got a little love in the new Rulebook, maybe they're on the rise.
Excellent!
Almost makes me want to start collecting a Blood Ravens force just to try these.
grey knights after all i make my own
lleman! I love you! thanks for that.
My three choices would be Howling Griffons, Aurora, and Disciples of Caliban.
Is anyone else getting a message that reads 'User is not allowed to use direct links'?
Bald Ravens! Why are we so bald?!
Because taking care of hair in an active combat sector should never be your priority...
yes I wholly agree, howling griffons would be SO handy bigred! good work so far!
Maybe it's just me, but I'm seeing two different Blood Raven badges around, and I'm wondering which one's right:
Check out http://uk.games-workshop.com/spacemarines/bloodravens/
The shoulder pad illustration in the upper-right corner matches these transfers, but the actual insignia painted on the shoulder pads in the upper-left corner is different. The torso comes more inward before fanning out for the tail. This is the way the badge appears in the Dawn of War games.
So, why two?
