Steve's "Tents & Tarps #2" set is reviewed here.

The stuff looks awesome! Any chance of WWII style generic stowage such as tarps, bedrolls, crates, etc? It'd open up a whole new customer base!

Julian, this stuff is generic to almost any era that used canvas tents. You could put this in the back of a horse-drawn wagon and do Civil War or Crimea with it. Change the colors and go from rubberized cloth to canvas, perhaps adding a little Mr. Surfacer to give it fabric texture.

Great news, I guess I assumed the straps and buckles would be more "modern" or something! Now that I've taken a closer look, these will look great on M3A2 halftracks, Stugs, horse drawn carts, jeeps, etc. Glad to see another resin player on the market, and reasonably priced too. It's beer o' clock now....

got mine in the post thismorning and very nice they look too. Crisp, bubble free castings, just waiting to be painted and used

Painted with Humbrol enamels, washed with Windsor & Newton Burnt Umber oil and then dry brushed with more enamels then photographed in natural light: Now to go stick them on something...just realised I have to pick out the buckles first. It's amazing how you see things in a photo that you don't see in the real thing

You can now order the first 5 sets of Universal/Generic Tents and Tarps directly from my site via paypal. or ebay if you prefer just search value gear. LINK The euro is down so anyone in the USA $11.93 is the converted price with shipping! 99% of the time I ship next day! Shipping to the USA is about 5-7 days Shipping to Europe is 2-5 days Thanks for all the kind words from all who have seen and tried my new resin stowage... And thank you to Armorama for having such a great site for all of us to find each other and discuss fun stuff... So far I have had orders from USA, Canada, Belgium, Italy, Spain, and the UK... A ton from the UK, they must be building a huge plastic army... thanks steve

Good stuff Steve, The 2 new sets look good, I'm keen for you to get the crate moulds sorted as your prototypes look great

yeah the big crates work fine everytime, but the little ones always have little bubbles in the corners, like the air gets stuck and my mildly industrial vacuum pump can't get a hold on the air trapped... Time to go industrial!!! Or maybe I am just some crazy guy expecting too much out of a super tiny little detailed part... I could just sell the bigger crates but I really have a vision of 4 sizes and I worked hard on scratch building those, I want the first set to be perfect... So soon... I have some slightly defective crate sets if anyone really wants them, a couple bubbles here and there. just send me an email from my site... LINK glad you like the stuff anthony... gotta send me some pics when you get some built into something...
