This looks great! And weathered using real mud? Will that look realistic?!!! Just kidding, yes it does! For years in the hobby I had to use materials found in nature including mud, dust, brick dust, and for leaves I found something that looks kind of like maple or birch leaves. This was a little plant which came up among the grass and the way you used it if you wanted fresh looking leaves was to put it in glycerine or put it on and airbrush it. The other option is to use it as ground clutter and then it will slowly turn dark and brittle, so you have a different leaf litter. I stopped doing all that when I got older and it was too rough for my knees so I started being the stuff online and wow, a lot of it has gotten better and better with HD, the Italian company, making pine cones among other things.
