The under open hatch area in the rear is medium grey.


The covered area around the turret and the driver's area are white.

I can add to that the lower portion of the turret basket from the last photo and from references in the Concord book is that orange red (I used Model Master engine block red)
I've got some turret interior pics I can drag up, but they largely resemble the BMP 1-2 with interior color, fittings, and boxes.

Thanks for the help guys. Now my next task, finding the Miniarm track set because the track that comes in the trumpy kit is trash. Thanks again gents.

Slightly off topic but with the impending release of the Trumpeter BMOT...has anyone come across pictures of the interior?
Thanks in advance as I have had no luck scouring the internet so far.

Hi Guys;
Nice pic's Jim; Altho they are of the BMP-3, and again altho the Trumpeter kits come with A partial interior, there is just to many details that need to be scratch built.
When I built my BMP-3; I spent about Six months adding all of those details, and do to the limitation's of the scale, its just impossible !!!! Even with all of the Hatches open there is just so much you can see; And in the Finish, I had to ask myself; Was it Worth It !!
CHEERS; MIKE.
