This is my recent build 1/35 Trumpeter BMP-1P soviet army in Afghanistan. For building this model i got Inspiration of the Mig Jimenez Martin BMP-1 I didn't add any aftermarket set i only add the grenade launcher from old Zevezda kit.

Excellent depiction of a very well worn and used looking BMP- the battered and dusty look really works nicely. I have to agree with Olivier about the track tension though.
On The Bench:
Ethiopian BMP-1 (Trumpeter 1/35)
AMX-13/75 (Takom 1/35)
The decals are way too bright for so worn vehicle. Besides I don't recall so weathered BMPs in Afghanistan during the Soviet involvement there. But as the weathering is truly amazing (as well as the photos) I think you could consider a dio of the post 1989 years with it.
