Question ❓ SLDF Unit Markings
As some of you know I have been working on painting up a SLDF force for some time. It is getting to the stage that I want to add a unit marking but I can't figure out what to do.
331st and Eridani Light Horse / 3rd Regimental Combat Team sre the most common but I cannot seem to find any other decals of SLDF units out there.
What have other people done? Have you made your own or used other unit markings from mercenaries or factions to represent SLDF units?
I had been trying to think about whether Clan toumans have recycled old SLDF unit markings for their own units as well.
Just need some ideas, inspiration or guidance.

Thanks for the suggestion guys.
I had been brainstorming to see what decals are out there that I could use to model my force. Some of the decals are obviously very specific to mercenary factions (like the Fighting Uruk-hai). Some of the Clan units (like Hell's Horses) have generic enough ones as well that could be used to make like an independent regiment.
Just seems like with a bunch of SLDF personel reforming mitary units and ths sheer scale of the size of the force itself, who's to say some unit or regimental markings were not reused, altered or reimagined?
