Personally I don’t like black bases other than for display miniatures because I feel they don’t fit in with any terrain (other than Star Wars Imperial spaceship interiors).

Out of similar considerations I started using clear bases for my Conan miniatures and my Infinity collection and am happy with the result. Once I get around to painting Space Marines and Tyranids for Advanced Space Crusade, they will get the same treatment.

If going down the painting route, I think something lightly textured in a dark brown might work best, e.g. Stirland Mud.
