I can recommend Fighting Piranha Graphics (in the US):

https://www.fightingpirannhagraphics.com/

Their stuff is very nice and shows up well.

Definance Industries also does decals, but their colors aren't as strong (meaning they can disappear on bolder or darker colors, such as their 21st Centauri decals had to be painted over on my blue mechs, and their Marik decals are invisible on purple Marik mechs, although they worked great on white Steiner mechs and off-white Kurita stuff).  They are in the UK.

Oooh, I like the ones with the sandy tones! I've never been much of a fan of the Battletech models, but that scheme looks really good. Nice work!

Dragoon's Epsilon Regiment have reinforced with a fire support lance made up of a STK-3F Stalker, ZEU-6S Zeus, TBT-5N Trebuchet and a LGB-0W Longbow.

These are the same shade as the previous mechs, but I didn't do any image jiggery pokery on the color levels, so look a little darker.

Also thanks for the comments and advice, I have a selection of decals in the post, should drop some point this week :)

That is a lot of missile support.  Well done.

Had some "fun" with the decals. Only problem is the ones I picked for the green mechs are to big and unusable on anything other than the Awesome...

Epsilon's third lance is made up of Unit's 01, 02, 08 and 10, which are a NSR-9J Nightstar, CTF-1X Cataphract, AXM-1N Axman, and a BSW-X1 Bushwacker. These give the regiment some added Heavy oomph.

Bought this pack without doing any real research, the inclusion of the Bushwacker puts this lance firmly in the Clan Invasion period and beyond. But can say that of the Mad Cat.

Great job!  But I think the Stalker cockpit is on the top not the front

A Griffin and a Vindicator of the 2nd Canopian Cuirassier's, a unit that has a long history with the Magistracy of Canopus.

I got hold of a copy of the Beginner Box.

Good job on the transition form light to dark.

The 2nd Canopian Cuirassier's Lance is completed with a CN9-A Centurion and a RFL-3N Rifleman.

These two mechs come from the new Essentials box set which a friend in the US was nice enough to ship for me.

Very cool. I love using the annihilator in the MW5 game. Good to see it in mini form.
