This should provide you, with an accurate paint guide:

Your link just brings up the google images search for BMP-3 interior. Could you be a little more specific?

Hi;
There have been Four different kit maker's of the BMP-3 ! And none of them provide color callouts for the interior. There are just to many component's that are in different colors. As for the three main colors; Off White for the inner walls, except the floor which is most often OD green, and the Turret basket which is Orange.
IMHO the best option is to take note of the other items and paint them according to photo's. Most component boxes are Silver in color. I have built & super detailed A BMP-3 interior with A Ton of scratch built item's and with all of the Hatches Opened up there is just to many details that in the End I had to Wonder if it was Worth all the Work.
CHEERS; MIKE.
