Could you convert some Colonial Egyptians?...I used to have quite a few and I think a head swap might be easy enough

Susopect a conversion would be easier. But the only unit I can think of with Fez is the Muslim SS Division.

I've been thinking of the same thing for my Italians in the desert, I need troops in fezs for various Fascist Blackshirt and Lybian units.

I don't know what they are like but I keep meaning to look at the SCW Moroccans and WW1 KAR/Askaris and
Tirailleurs Senegalese to see if any on those would do for.

Anyone seen/got any pics to offer?

From what I have read some of the Italian Colonial troops wore a Fez and were very good with a knife :D

There are some SCW to come wearing fez's, so they might be of use.
