  In this work, we provide a treatment of scaling functional equations in a
general setting involving fractals arising from sufficiently nice self-similar
systems in order to analyze the tube functions, tube zeta functions, and
complex dimensions of relative fractal drums. Namely, we express the volume of
a tubular neighborhood in terms of scaled copies of itself and a remainder term
and then solve this expression by means of the tube zeta functions.
  We then apply our methods to analyze these generalized von Koch fractals,
which are a class of fractals that allow for different regular polygons and
scaling ratios to be used in the construction of the standard von Koch curve
and snowflake. In particular, we describe the volume of an inner tubular
neighborhoods and the possible complex dimensions of such fractal snowflakes.
