If you knew me you would know I love the Caunter!
The Matilda was dubbed "Queen of the Battlefield" for her early success such as Operation Compass when a small probing attack turned the Italian Army on a full route. Nothing the Italians had could take on the Matilda and this she became a legend. It was until the Germans entered the foray did the Matilda meet her match.
You can do 7th RTR, the markings were just a name on the hull side starting with G, the 7th letter of the alphabet. GRIMSBY is one of my favorites.
White Ensign enamels are a good match for the Portland Stone, Silver Grey and Slate.
