Matilda II Tank

The Infantry Tank Mark II, best known as the Matilda, is a British infantry tank of the Second World War. The design began as the A12 specification in 1936, as a gun-armed counterpart to the first British infantry tank, the machine gun armed, two-man A11 Infantry Tank Mark I. The Mark I was also known as Matilda, and the larger A12 was initially known as the Matilda II or Matilda senior. The Mark I was abandoned in 1940, and from then on the A12 was almost always known simply as "the Matilda".

I have a personal connection with this vehicle (might not be here but for it) and I'm really pleased with this lora; I hope you will be too. Behaves well at the usual 0.80-0.85, but due to the training material has a definite trend towards black&white, particularly if using the "tank formation" or "tank column" tags. I've counteracted this in the examples with "kodachrome color" (other brands used to exist), but your mileage may vary. Please don't ask me for the Canal Defense Light, I'm not doing it.

If you're enjoying these models, please consider buying me a coffee, it really helps.

ps - the famous (if you'e into this sort of thing, must assume you are) "Caunter" scheme always used to be blue/sand/brown, but that's actually wrong so I've pruned any of the wrong examples out of the training data - it should be light grey/sand/brown/green, which is hopefully what comes out... obviously I've already spotted the light blue tint in the images I've posted, but if you appreciate the effort please throw me some buzz nonetheless 🤣
