The swordsman doesn't seem too big to me. I think that he looks large-ish in that picture only because he has the dwarves side-by-side with him, but he looks about the right size to me.

That's a pity, although if you agree to release what you've done so far under the GPLv2, I could include it as an "extra" graphic in Wyrmsun, and it could possibly to be used for things such as an immobile and indestructible NPC for a RPG-like scenario.

Cool =) Thanks!

I added the graphics to Wyrmsun, and created a "long swordsman" static NPC unit (it cannot move, attack, or die) using its graphics and the icon by Jinn which I had mentioned in the start of the thread.

I modified the unit's legs to look a bit more like the leg position used by the erala, and changed the armor's color to use the same colors as the dwarven thane's armor:

Here is how it looks in-game, with an erala for comparison:

The unit is sometimes generated in the Random Dungeon map, and it gives 100 XP to the player's hero upon being found:
