I do like the spent tubes. Also the wrapped tarp at the front of the Priest is very convincing, as does the .50cal cover.
Cheers

I love both the stowage sets, and they look so different from other stowage sets on the market, unique, attractive and realistic!

The kind of inspirational aftermarket that makes you want a kit just to fit that stowage on it!

Cheers,

Christophe

Regarding the Staghound Stowage, one of the most notable aspects is the inclusion of the side baskets. Why it's taken the AM companies so long to include these I don't know but it's the most welcome addition imaginable. A large percentage of (contemporary) photos show these fitted with not many showing the auxiliary fuel tanks.

Some fantastic sets from Resicast

On the Staghound, I have to say I really like these sets having looked at them again. The addition of the remains of the deep wading gear is a real plus as are the side baskets Jim mentioned, another hit on the bank account is about to take place.

Resicast have been putting out some really useful stuff and I think Graham's idea of enough for 2 vehicles is a winner, nice one all around on both sets

I agree although it does limit your options somewhat towards a Canadian Staghound. I hope they can be persuaded (in the future) to do the COMPLETE wading gear. It'd also be good if they could do a set of CORRECT WWII Maple Leaf decals...
