Italian colonial troops

Use the British from 1895 in khaki or cream and trim part of the magazine of the Lee enfield and cut the bottom of the grip on the stock to look a little bit more like the vettirle rifles use a small piece of clay or colored paper to make the cockade on the helmets

German colonial troops in Africa armies and plastic figures DIY part two

I feel like the other design was a bit too difficult and not the most cost-effective so you could just use the Spanish American or Spanish figures in GrAY or khaki you will need to flatten the tops involve the hats and you can maybe use a little bit of heat from maybe some boiling water or carefully with a lighter near not directly on the plastic slowly bend the side of a hat up to give it the slouched appearance

Belgian Congo, colonial troops DIY

What you’ll need are the British infantry in cream that can be found in the box of rebellion section and with a hobby knife carefully cut out the magazine from the Lee Medford rifles. This will give a closer appearance to a Mauser and that’s really it.
