    I'm late to the party too Jim. Love the half tracks. This is setting itself up for another cracking build. Love the stretchers, already feeling like a quick lie down!!!

      Very neat and precise work on the scratched stretcher supports! The stretchers look great too.

        Thanks guys for all your kind comments. The canvas I used for the stretchers was some I had left over from the hammocks on the HMS Victory cross section which some may remember.
        I've done all the interior painting so it can be buttoned up. I made a couple of blankets to go on the stretchers. Just bits of wet wipes soaked in dilute PVA.

            It certainly looks convincing.

                    Thanks guys for your posts.
                    The interior is in. Typical Tamiya fit but a bit fiddly. Photos are poor as it was awkward to get a clear view. It does look fine to the naked eye.
