For n>0, assuming you just want the converted digits and not a string.
String conversion and minus sign for n<0 left as exercise.  Note this
returns a generator that you can convert to a list with list(...).

    def convert(n, base):
        a,b = divmod(n,base)
        if a > 0:
           for e in convert(a,base):
                 yield e
        yield b
