I'm looking to start trying out Drupal 8. But I need some themes for display.
Here's a couple good articles on how to handle this :

For my current D7-based themes, looks like I have a couple options :
- Modify "slightly" the PHPTemplate-based themes and use them mostly as-is.
- Run the PHPTemplate-based theme thru "Twigify" at https://drupal.org/sandbox/forest/1974984
As far as D7 PHPTemplate-based themes that have already been upgraded (somewhat) to D8 I see these examples :
https://drupal.org/project/busy
https://drupal.org/project/Themage
https://drupal.org/project/fontfolio
https://drupal.org/project/newsflash
I'll try to give updates on how this is working out.
