I wanted to base them to represent "move through cover" a little more than the average tactical marine, so I put larger chunks of concrete/cork on their bases. This lead to some interesting center of gravity issues for the models leaning more heavily to one side or the other. I corrected the imbalance with fishing sinkers glued to the light side of the base, as pictured here.
