MAS and myself have been working on making a new line of bases for Eldar, called wraithstone, these go on sale next monday. 40mm base still to come.

Looks nice. I don't know why, but when I see these, I almost think tau more than eldar

I see tau as well, the shape and line make me think greater good technology.

I see Eldar as well, but not as much.

If you have an online store please link it.

I'm guessing MAS is short for Micro Art Studios? http://www.shop.microartstudio.com/index.php

Savis beat me to linking you, the company is MicroArtStudio and are available for purchase next monday.

Regarding them looking like tau. Eldar and Tau share some similar aesthetics and can be used for both

Already posted them in my MAS news thread (when the previews were posted in January and when another shop already listed them as in stock in February):

Still deserve their own thread, nice work!

Yeah, the shapes look Tau, but with Eldar gems on them. Still quite cool.

They look Eldar to me.

That, and they also look awesome - well done!

That is some Eldar awesomeness. Great work!

Is it an austrailan store?, if so are any stockists in aus? These look nuts

Micro Art Studios is in Poland. Link.

They have distributors here in Australia, The Combat Company sell MAS bases and are based in Sydney I believe. But you can buy them from MAS direct and they will post them to you.

Ok cool, il check em out, cheers

Here is a comparison of the 60mm base against a dire avenger for people concerned with size:

Awesome to see these come to fruition! The final versions look fantastic

So the sizes available are 25mm... and 60mm? (I only saw "40mm still to come" in the OP).

Wow those look great.

The 40mm are still in production and will take some time to make it into the set, could be a couple of days after release or even weeks, but rest assured they will come none the less

Very nice I will probably pick these up if I ever collect an eldar army.

In that picture of the 60mm base, why does the base edge go from flat-angled to rounded?

May we assume that the usual places in the US will be able to sell these, such as FTW Games and The War Store for example?

Pretty neat. To be hoenst, as cool as an entire Eldar army on these would be, I'd think it was even cooler if someone themed their IG as a regiment on a long-term campaign against Eldar and used these. Distress the bases a bit and have the IG use Eldar bits as trophies, scavenged weapons, etc.

Then again, I'm weird.

No, I get that too. I like to see armies on bases with a different "theme" to the army... Eldar on trench bases, IG on chaos bases, etc.

I dont see any flat edge. They have rounded corner, is that what you mean?

If they usually stock MAS products then I would assume so, but it is best to contact either them or MAS just to make sure of stock.

I agree, I like that idea, however I did design these for my Eldar so I will be boring and use these for that (Ulthwe Eldar ) but don't feel you have to use these for just Eldar/Tau.

I really like this.

Tempted to buy some.

Shame I'm getting rid of my eldar.

Fantastic

The Tau thing on them is the "joint lines", Eldar technology tends to be more uniform, more like something organic that just growth that way. The joint lines make it look like "plates of plastic and metal", the round style complete the "touch".

But they are awesome anyway

Have the people claiming these look like Tau rather than Eldar ever looked at the lines in an Eldar Falcon model? Seriously, check it out.

Those look awesome. I would collect them (Painting in ULthwe) but I'm afraid my models would disappear into the base....I always like my bases to be a sharp contrast to my paint scheme so my models pop. But again, these look awesome and would look really good in an Iyanden theme (and fluffy too against a Nid player!).

they kind of remind me of WoW Dreani. when you first start a character and your on the ship outside of Exodar Rofl.
