Hi gang, Did a bit of googling without much success.
I'm looking for pics/references for all the
above mentioned troops that i could use for
french colonial troops in Lebanon and Africa
during early ww2. |

What scales are you doing? Plenty of figures available in 20mm Try Googling – Army of Levant, tirailleurs marocains, tirailleurs senegalaise, tirailleurs algerian, tirailleurs tunisiens, spahis marocains – literally hundreds of pics under any and all of these………. I know this is Wiki, but its a good starting point -
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Colonial_Forces
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Army_of_the_Levant |

I guess it will depend on the scale you are using. If you are using 20mm or smaller, there are plenty of substitute figures which will work in a pinch. If you are looking for 25/28mm figures you may have your work cut out for you as they make uniform substitutes, but the kit and weapons are very different. |

Sorry i wasn't clear, i was thinking of real life pics :)
Thanks for the links though^^
Now this is weird, i DID do a google search but nowhere found
as many pics as you… Weak google fu…
And that would be 10mm figs btw. |
