Paints are a mix of Vallejo Colour, Vallejo Air and AK 3rd Gen acrylics. In addition Vallejo Sepia, Umber and Flesh washes were used. I hadn't done one of these since 1978, so it was a nice change.

Airfix English Civil War Pikeman 54 mm
Here's the ECW Pikeman, done as a member of the Earl of Manchester's Regiment of Foote, a re-enactment group belonging to The Sealed Knot.

Will you put some grass scatter on the top of the base?

Make your own; some dried leaves crushed up, some waste from a teabag, a bit of fine soil, mixed with some PVA glue. Cheap as chips

Looks good you could also just use some dirt on white glue for the base.
