I can finally share what I have been working on for the past several months. I have been redesigning Detail and Scale’s website.
ww.detailandscale.com
Just announced, “Detail & Scale is very pleased to announce that our website at www.detailandscale.com has been completely redesigned and updated and now has a whole new look!
Our new website provides improved search capabilities, ease of purchase of new and past publications, enhanced photo galleries of real aircraft, and two sections for scale aircraft modelers. This sleek new design is mobile friendly and easy to navigate with a three-character minimum search function.
The website has a section dedicated to providing information about all of our publications, which are available in both printed and digital formats.
The Military Aviation Archives Section provides numerous photo galleries of aircraft that feature both general and detail photographs covering many different types from World War I biplanes to today's combat aircraft. The MAA galleries provide an extensive free reference source for military aviation enthusiasts.
For the scale aircraft modeler, one section provides comprehensive reviews of kits, after market sets, decals, and books. A second section contains photos of built models from the Detail & Scale Collection, various contests, and models built by some of the best builders around. These can help inspire and provide ideas for scale modelers of any experience and skill level.
Thanks to Scott Bricker and Orcada Media for designing the new Detail and Scale.”
