I'm sure most people have seen MicroArt's work on cmon, then tend to sell alot of painted mini's, and lately conversion pieces. They also do a range of resin bases and i've managed to find a uk supplier for these (to save ordering from Poland). Heres a sample of some i ordered for a wood elf army 40 and 50mm bases for Treemen  20 and 25mm bases for wood elfs and dryads  2 part flying base (this one will need filling at joint) for mounting eagles, etc onto.  I also ordered one pack of 25mm temple style bases  Overall very good quality although mounting figures onto some of them will be tricky. |

A bit to overelaborate IMO, I wouldn't use them for an entire army, just one or two special characters.

Yeah, I think whoever made these is like I quite often get when it comes to bases, they got a bit carried away adding cool stuff and didn't stop to think that something has to actually stand on it!
They are all pretty funky of course, but the practicality is lacking with a fair few of them.

Aye, some are a bit overdone, but most of them I really like! The flying one would look awesome with Gwahir or another of the LOTR eagles.

I rather like them, though they add too much hight for rank and file units.

I've got some of these bases and have to say they need a particular figure to suit them, the last i used i had to modify quite o lot, both the mini and the base, to get a natural pose.... the quality is excellent, the practicality not for the average collector  |

The bases from this company have alway looked cool to me, but I have yet to purchase any. I don't paint armies, so that's not a problem for me, I'm just waiting until I'm working on a miniature that I think will go with them (I have a few, but I haven't started on them yet).
I really like Kerr and King bases, and use them quite frequently (as you can see from the later miniatures in the gallery on my website).
