does anyone have any Syrian civil war marking photographs for a BMP-1... i tried googling it but didn't have much luck?

Echelon has Syrian BMP1 and 2 decals. I have used them before. Just google them.

Some of those markings from the camo'd BMP-1 pics are on the Decal sheet that I mentioned and provided the link for.

Thanks for the info, I have that decal sheet at home.

fabulous pictures, thank you very much for linking them.

i do have a question, the "Bear in the Sand" book has syrian BMP painted sand colours only and no green, was this just some artistic licence by the builder and the article in the book or do sand colour only types see service, i do have some images on my phone but i'm starting to question if maybe these pictures are from iraq instead?

You're welcome David Here's a Syrian sand painted BMP-1 in Hatitia al Jarsh (2014) :
