I think some redshirts wore felt hats so maybe Western theatre Union infantry or Confederate infantry depicting shirts tucked in. A little goes a long way |

You can probably cobble together a Neapolitan army using the Piedmontese. Same for the Papal forces athough there isn't a good proxy for the Pontifical Zouaves. The ACW and FPW zouaves look like they are both in fez as opposed to kepi.
