Hi Gijs

Even if the pics below (from Kitmaker's gallery) show a M2A3 interior, I believe they still can be useful to you for the overall layout which should be quite similar...

Gijs-sorry I didnt get back to your PM, I have tons of reference on the M2A2 interior which I would be more than happy to email to you. I also have loads of in progress shots of my interior-which isnt 100% but is about as accurate as I can make it and look ok through the hatches. That M3A2 interior is fine for an M2A2 interior, its just the turret layout thats different. My turret interior is a mix of M2/M2A2 and M3A2 details-not 100% accurate but looks fine. I will send you all the details I have via email asap

The M3A2 and M2A2 interiors are diffrent in the troop compartment. There is no diffrence in the turret. The M3A2 has 1 bench set on the left with 10 TOWS and extra 25MM ammo on the right. The M2A2 has bench seats on both sides.

Also the pics above are of an M2A3. You can tell by the squad leaders dispay up by the turret.

Damn im stupid Ric! Typo! I did mean M2A3 not M3A2, yer the M3A2 is both internally and externally different. From pics ive seen the M2A3 turret interior does like slightly different to the M2A2 interior-is this right?

Could someone tell me what is the colour of the floor and walls in the interior? I want to make my bradley but i don't know what colour I should use.
I would prefer numbers from pactra and humbrol if somebody knows the colour exactly

Thanks,
Krzysztof Mucha

According to this chart :
http://ipmsstockholm.org/colorcharts/stuff_eng_colorcharts_tamiya.htm

Humbrol 65 should be a good match for Tamiya XF 21 "Sky". Opinion is divided about the accurate reference to use and another suggested option is Tamiya XF 71 "Cockpit green" ...but I don't know about a Humbrol equivalent to this one ...
