* [http://www.atlantisart.co.uk/ Atlantis Art] is a large warehouse-sized art shop with all kinds of things. Probably not cheapest for things like liquid latex, silicone moulding materials etc but it's there and it's reasonably priced for large sheets of paper, melinex (laserable clear sheet - useful for stencils), higher quality art supplies etc. One thing that caught me out - they have a vast selection of airbrush media but no hardware ! | * [http://www.atlantisart.co.uk/ Atlantis Art] is a large warehouse-sized art shop with all kinds of things.

* [https://www.bauhaus-shop.de/ Bauhaus-shop] The most amazing art materials shop I've ever been in. Reminds me of Foyle's bookshop in Charing Cross Road, pre-modernisation, though better organised: floor after floor of unexpected treasures. Unfortunately a bit of a trek, as it's in Berlin, but do visit if you're in the area. Or just want to gorge yourself for a week or so. | * [https://www.bauhaus-shop.de/ Bauhaus-shop] The most amazing art materials shop I've ever been in.
