Does anyone know of a company that makes nicely detailed German E boats in either metal or 3d printed resin at 1/600 scale? I'm primarily a WW1 gamer but I really like the look of WW2 e boats.

I got the old Skytrex ones, but aren't the 'Cruel Seas' ones 1/600 too? link

No Cruel Seas is 1/300.

They're listed as 3mm scale but I reckon that makes the Heroics & Ros range 1/600 – see link:

PT Dockyard makes a bunch of coastal craft in 1/600 scale

They aren't 3D printed, just good old resin.

Indeed! – Those look like the 1/600 ships I got years ago!
I think Skytrex must have sold off their range a long time ago.

there are a number of 1/300 models on Thingiverse that scale down nicely for printing.
