They are painted. There are no transfers available. Depending on how good you are at painting, its not the hardest emblem to paint.

With the correct computer skills, transfers aren't too hard to make ethier.

It depends how steady your hand is. On some of the space marines I have repainted from my old army, I have put little black dots on the white of the eyes and stuff like that.

Also, whats this about creating them on the computer?!?!?!

Whats the name of the paper? Where do you get it from?

creating your ouwn transfers is quite simple really - once you find the design you want, just photoshop it to scale it down to proper size!
most decent photo stores carry transfer paper for use in printers, just ask the staff who hopefully know what they're doing! (you might want to bring along a regular gw transfer sheet just to show them what you're lookng for...)

a couple of my mates do this to create their own custom chapter's transfers...

cheers!

the thing is, i just don't trust transfers...i don't know about other ones but GW's never look as good as they do on the box, unfortunately..haha
i hear the trick is to dry them with a hair dryer, never tried it though.

i think i've seen some blood ravens without chapter marking before. believe me, if the body of the model is well done people probably won't even notice the lack of heraldry..

alright, check out these wicked whips. i have never seen such beautiful space marines, actually. no heraldry either, at least for a few of them...they're still clearly BR guys though, cause the colors are distinct.

just ignore the raven on the shoulderpad, cause i don't think they tell you how to do that...you can just follow the instructions for the rest of the body...i know it's kind of minimalistic but honestly, i think it'll look fine without transfers or painted ravens...you can save that for HQs or vets or something :]
