MB 326 Impala Italeri (1:72)


Recommended Posts

Hi all, here is my recently built impala. I must say, in the last week or so ive started using Klear, the new formula, and wow, what a difference. The canopies are so shiny and clear with using this and the aircraft themselves, if they should be shiny, look superb as a result. All comments welcome.

Hi thanks for your comment. The Impala exists mainly in two seater form, inwhich most are, but there are some single seater frames out there. Regards

Nice looking result there, Dan; if I may offer a top tip, painting the canopy frame in the cockpit interior colour before applying the external colour would give a 'solid' appearance of the right colour to the inside of the canopy, rather than the semi-translucent orange that you've ended up with.

The Impala was the name given to the MB326 built under license in South Africa by Atlas. The Impala Mk1 was the two-seat trainer version, and the Impala Mk2 was the Atlas-built single-seat ground-attack MB326K. If it wasn't built in South Africa by Atlas, then it was/is an MB326 and not an Impala.

Irrespective of the precise name, that colour scheme always looks spectacular!
