Kaisersoldaten
Imperial German troops were hard to find, so most of the group's Teutonic units are simply British with minimal conversion work (as in: painting a Y-strap over the cross straps, and maybe adding a helmet spike). They were painted feldgrau (grey), for contrast and variety with the red and khaki Brits, even though most German troops in colonial areas actually wore tan.

David's
German Cavalryman
made from a Partha Natal Mounted Policeman,
chosen because they already have the spike.

Flagbearer
converted from a Stadden 30 Englander,
(yes, I know it's a naval ensign, but it looks SOOO snappy), and

Gen. von Himmelstupper,
brandishing his Mauser and riding crop,
converted from an artillerist of unknown manufacture.

Colonial Troops
Colonial units are composed of native soldiers, organized in a formal military structure, often along European lines and armed with European-style weapons, sometimes with European officers. Colonial units can act as auxiliaries to Imperial troops or be the military arm of the native government.
