Title: Stowage and where to find it?
Post by: swiftnick on October 29, 2020, 10:24:12 PM

Guys I am looking for modern 15mm stowage but can't seem to find any.
Is anybody aware of any.
Preferably with a middle Eastern flavour.

Battlefront produce a pack of "US stowage" in their Team Yankee range.  Looks pretty generic. Not aware of anything else in 15mm.

Regards

All of these do a fair range. I find a lot of 20mm stowage fits fine on 15mm vehicles, tarps, packs etc. though steer clear of weapons and Jerry cans

PSC have a German Stowage set.

In 15mm you cannot read the W^D markings on the Jerry Cans, so you cannot tell if they are British or German.

For soft stowage, try sculpting it in Greenstuff.

I do not have anything more modern than the Cromwell in 15mm (they did fight in the Korean War though).
