Here are my 6mm pikes mounted 48 to a 60mm by 30mm stand. They came without the pikes. I purchased a cheap broom with black plastic bristles, and cut them in to 18mm lengths, then added a little silver paint.

Camps are supposed to be able to hold a camp follower or foot element. I suggest using the normal camp size for 60mm wide bases for whichever version of DBA you are using. For example, DBA 2.2 specified that the camp should fit into a rectangle whose length plus width was no more than four times the base width, which would be 240mm for armies on 60mm wide bases. You should find that you have a lot of scope for modelling camps.
Edit: Didn't see your pikemen before I first posted this. They look good. I like the idea of using flexible bristles for pikes. Pikes that are moulded onto the figures tend to bend. A friend of mine tried to use pins for pikes, but when he either dropped or accidentally put his hand on them, all the pins that he had carefully superglued on came off rapidly.

All my army photos were in the old resource page, but i have used 6mm on 40mm bases, 6mm on 60mm bazes, and 10mm on 60mm bases. For 6mm figure numbers, I went with 5-8 for light troops, 16ish mor mexium troops, and 24 (6 strips of Baccus) for heavy troops, or even 32 for pike. For mounted troops, 12 was aboyt max, but i was fine with anywhere between 9 and 12 for cavaly/knivhts, and half that for light cavalry.
