Where can I find those chess looking base?

As the title stated.
I'm sculpting a series of busts right now and hoping to have a consistency in the line, and I thought about chess style base right away.

You know, those base Sideshow Weta use for their LOtR bust line.

Doesn't matter whether they're wood or whatever material, but where can I find some of those or do I have to make them(am not that good yet)??

I tried them art/craft stores already and all they have is those wooden flat ones.

Any suggestion would be appreciated!!

I might be wrong though..

This kind of base, would be great with a longer neck.

Doesn't have to look exactly the same but something like that would be great.
