Very nice and they look great in that setting. Back in the mid 1970's, I had an Airfix half-track with red cross markings and a tilt. Shame Airfix didn't still include that option although your tilt looks more realistic I think.

Nice builds Ratch, really like the medi halftrack with the tarp.

A great pair Ratch and once again, that dio base looks really effective. Is that a homemade tarp on the medical wagon? tissue soaked in PVA per chance? Looks very good.
