Then a mate sent me a photo of the Panzer Pioneer KFZ15 and I saw that as a modelling challenge. Then I spotted a photo of the halftrack ambulance in a Signal book and decided to build it too and finally went the whole hog and bought/painted up a FAMO. I`m not sure if the whole lot will ever see a tabletop - but they were fun to build and look interesting.
