You've got that backwards. The states did not base their constitutions on the federal one. they had all developed new constitutions fairly soon after independence was declared. The delegates to the Constitutional Convention knew those constitutions and were able to use them as models for the federal one. Some prenciples from those state constitutions that were incorporated into the federal constitution include separation of powers, limits on government powers, power of taxation rests solely with the legislature, regular election of the legislature and the executive.
