Exposing home hosted services on internet with tinc

Hello,
I need to build a VPN, and I am not sure if tinc is the right tool to
use. I am more familiar with OpenVPN.
I have a few boxes at home, behind a router with a dynamic IP
address. Those boxes host some services, like web sites, for instance.
I have a server hosted online, with a few IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. All
addresses being static, of course.
I am planning to use tinc on Debian, to "expose" the services hosted on
these "home" boxes on IPv4/IPv6 addresses, using tinc VPN. The NAT
would occur in the tunnel. I can write the nat/masquerade rules.
The big question is, does tinc need the two nodes have a static IP
address ?
I don't want to modify the router configuration or to create nat rules
in the home router.
Thanks,
André
