Welcome to Mike Tipping Models

Site looks quite neat and tidy, colour scheme is complimentary (although some might find the text a little hard to read being dark grey on light grey couple with the small size.), quite easy to navigate as a website should do, Its based on a time served template so shouldn't be any problems to be honest.

Couple of images need sorting out as they show in low res. ... these are ...

Bottom right image on swordfish (closeup of tail), middle image on mustang (bloke with map), 3rd down in middle on mish/stuka (engine shot)

All in all ..... groovey man

Hi Mike,

Do you think you need another link to a page with "Custom builds" or "Built for you"?

It looks good to me & views fine on my Mac with Safari.

Good luck with it.

Hi David

Not sure, I have just completed the spit, so I only have 4 to show at the moment, what would you suggest the custom build or built for you would show, I welcome your comments.

Hi Mike,

Sorry if I was a little vague!

Custom Build or Built for you - I have a friend whose Grandfather was a WW2 Night fighter Ace - Someone like him could possibly have a Mossie or Beaufighter in his markings in a small display case. You could do the same for armour or boats. You could integrate a photo.

When I look at the site, the feel is mainly for large scale diorama. Are there more avenues to push?

Hope this helps!

Ps. Fantastic models!!

Regards

Hi Mike,

I've just looked again! And I think that's just about hit the nail on the head!

You don't hang about!! LOL!

Good luck with it all.

Hi Mike,

It's looking really good!

How are you getting on with the Meta tags? They always used to drive me mad!

Just one thing you might consider ...

In the "custom Build" section you have the option of "bespoke tank" and "bespoke vehicle" giving the options of 1/48, 1/32, 1/24.

If you add 1/35 you'd widen the kit options available to you, especially in AFV.

There's a couple of scripts that took a while to load (one being on "shop") maybe just check setting/parameters ???

Hope you dont think i'm being too picky, it looks good mate!!!!

when i was in the web designing game i'd be twiddlin' with them for ages after they went live, often to my customers annoyance

dont forget ........ "Rome wasn't built in a day"
