About Skill Levels

Model Cars Online also uses a variation of the Skill Levels used by model manufacturers when publishing a particular article. (See our article "About Skill Levels" for more information.) The run pretty much along the same lines; here's a breakdown:

Skill Level 1 articles are written with the beginning modeler in mind, and minimal skill is required. However some of the information may be useful to more advanced modelers. Skill Level 2 articles are for modelers with intermediate levels of experience and skills. They also will require more tools and supplies. Level 3 articles are for the advanced modeler and will require a high level of experience and skill. Complex techniques are used and advanced tools are required. Articles that carry the "ALL" designation will contain information that is useful to all modelers, regardless of experience and skill.
