Hi all
I have just purchased my first 48th scale model - a Tamiya Sherman M4A1 - and I need some stowage like wooden boxes, ammo boxes, ammo bags, rucksacks, helmets, blankets etc. All the lovely stuff a Sherman usually is loaded with. :-)
Can any of you recommend any aftermarket set in 48th scale?
Thanks
Ole

What are those enormous pillow looking things on the front? They're way to big to be sandbags.

You can also make some of the stowage yourself. It's really simple:

OK if u don't want a pillow/beanbag look, Kiwi Resin does this Sandbag armor kit (find them on e-bay). I just got it today and looks pretty good. I haven't trimmed them yet but here's the gist
Also, Gasoline from France has a few items
