I ordered stowage from Red3 and Scalefiend Miniatures. I got 3 sets from each and got the Red3 ones today. It consists of large rolled tarps, rolled camouflage nets, bed rolls, jerry cans and small saddlebags. When the Scalefiends come in I will post a picture of them too.

Thanks for the photos. This is nice to see.

Excellent and thanks for sharing. Nothing substitutes for actually seeing the items. And also found one thing that sets your models apart is the stowage you add making each vehicle unique.

3 sets of Scalefiends stowage.

So do you have a preference or one set you prefer over the other? :)

Marc, The Red3 are metal and the Scalefiends printed, I prefer the Red3.

Imagine one benefit of the metal is they can be bent to conform to some of the surface contours for a more natural look. Resin always seems to have a memory when you try to reshape it.

Not in this case though Marc. I tried that with one of the long rolls and it broke as soon as I tried, it seems kind of brittle.
