100SQN Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Hi, Does anybody know where I can buy PE for 1/700 aircraft carriers and ships in the UK ? I'm aware of eBay, Hannants, Sovereign Hobbies and Starling Models Cheers, Simon Edited December 16, 2019 by 100SQN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Atlantic Models have a small range http://www.atlanticmodels.net/photo-etched details/1-700 scale.html Alternatively, Tom's Model Works - who took over the former White Ensign Models - are good and have an extensive range http://www.tomsmodelworks.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=23_26. I know they don't meet your in the UK criteria but their service is excellent (I've received PE from them in 3-4 days) and shipping less than many UK based suppliers L'Arsenal in France have a comprehensive range too and offer a very good service. http://www.larsenal.com/PBSCCatalog.asp I wouldn't be at all worried about them not being UK based. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Smith Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) Not sure if White Ensign models are still going.....Worth a look on the web just n case. Also try Scale Warship who do ranges of photo etched parts for maritime modellers. Edited December 17, 2019 by Noel Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Ensign Models went bust in 2014 and was broken up. I bought Colourcoats, Hannants bought all their 3rd party products, and the owner of Tom's Model Works in California bought the White Ensign Models brand name, website, plus rights and residual stock of WEM branded PE and other accessories.

Noel Smith Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Thanks for the update about White Ensign models. I had a feeling that they were no longer trading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
