Title: Camel Corps
Post by: FierceKitty on 01 March 2012, 06:10:39 AM
Are the Sudanese camel corps figures Egyptians in fez, or Brits in helmets?

British in Helmets. Below is a link to some pictures of the unpainted figures.  In the Photo section, I ahve several pictures of painted units.

Hopefully with a few minor changes the British figure can be turned into the Egyptian Camel Corp.  hint hint

I am reading Churchills River Wars and the Egyptian Camel Corp was used extensively.

Can the helmet be filed down to a fez, then?

I'd have thought built up as far as the top bit goes.
